to everyone complaining about how these products are very expensive and such - a very important aspect of minimalism that i have learned is that sometimes it is best to buy a quality item that will last a long time as opposed to a cheaper item that you may have to replace many times!!
Buying it multiple times makes you disappointed
I do agree with you’lol
Buy nice, not twice! Something I always live by. I did a ski season in Europe and invested in a pair of 120£ Hestra gloves. They lasted me the whole season and are still going strong. The people who bought cheap gloves 30-40£ bought multiple pairs throughout the season and probably ended up spending more overall.
I just want to tell u,
The beats have the least quality
Very expensive,
And cannot be used for a long time
I agree! Buy quality once, not junk two or three times. quality last.
Instead of an eye mask, pack a bandanna. I've used mine as an eye mask on the plane, a smog mask in Beijing, a neckerchief in the sun, and of course as an actual bandanna. Plus it rolls up into the size of a travel shampoo and weighs next to nothing.
I also pack a length of 3mm shock cord. I've used it for clothesline, emergency belt.
+Schrödinger's Ape great tips dude!!!
Schrödinger's Ape superb tips!
What set you claim?
Schrödinger's Ape q
Carrying 5 or so of the semi-nice but cheap ponytail rubber bands can be used for a gazillion things on their own and combined with things like the 550 cord. I've used them to adjust tent sizes, hang things, control cables and clothes and yadayada.
On the comment where you said " you can't afford to be hungover and miss a day " that happened to me during my trip to London. I had planned to go to the London Bridge but was entirely too hungover to go the next day. That same day the terrorist attack happened on the bridge. I went straight from being bummed about missing a day, to thankful I didn't go, and bummed about the attack. It was really strange honestly. Maybe it saved my life, who knows?
Wow! That’s a heavy story!
So was most of London! 🤣😂
Dave Alan it definitely saved your life!
I bring packets of condom when i travel which i use to collect all the sands and soil from different places for my sand and soil collections.
+Aditya Udayana hahah interesting use. Ever had to explain those to a customs agent?!? 😂
lmao :D
HAHAHAHAH bangsat
Muhahaha so sad and funny :D so when you meet a girl at your travels and take her to your place, you're like wait... I just have one condom.... and start taking away all your sand and soil away... :D but putting it somewhere to keep it... memories :D
ahahahha good one bro
Why is everyone so hard on them? I agree that the budget is on the high end but they are sharing what works for them, take what works for you and leave the rest behind. Safe travels everyone
+Barbara Dosen amen. Thanks Barbara 🤙🏽
Yeah, no kidding. Did they say it was low budget? Good travel gear is an investment - especially for professional travel vloggers.
Nice use of Baksheesh !! I am an Indian and I understood the meaning 😃
Compartmentalizing is definitely my favorite thing when traveling. I have about 6 different fabric bags with a zipper. One for flight: USB plug, 3in1 cable for phones, eyemask, toothbrush and earplugs. The Second got camera stuff and third got chargers.
Best thing I've learned. And also those vacuum bags which you can roll out the air is amazing saver for space.
-Antti/Lanttimatkat
This video was great! Love all the tips!
Fun Fact: if you take a B-Complex after a wild night of drinking, you'll wake up without a hang over the next morning BUT if you take it BEFORE you start drinking, you CANT get drunk. Good tip if you want to drink but also want to stay coherent. I have tested both of these theories myself with my sister and my mom and they really work so I also travel with some of those.
Here goes a purely positive comment:
I admire how you just enjoy what you are doing, how you just live your days by one and also launch this very high quality content. Thumbs up for those, who are cool enough to be sponsered for travelling, use all the opportunities you get!(:
I love that you always link products. It makes life so much easier... I hate the pause, rewind, freeze crap! Thanks Guys!
If they ever make a live movie of el dorado they need to cast these guys!
Hahahahah you’re not the first to say there’s a resemblance
Great info! For women, I'd like to suggest a dark, light-weight, elastic-waist maxi skirt; a long-sleeve lightweight dark sweater and a dark pashmina that doubles as a head scarf. They're ALWAYS in my day pack when I'm wearing shorts and a tank top and are handy when I want to tour a conservative church, temple or mosque. On the days I'm wearing sandals, I also throw a pair of thin black socks into my backpack.
The part where you said do not travel with hashish was so funny!
✅
6:59 he seemed genuinly pissed 🤣
Great tips. All of them. I travel like 4 times per year and I thought I was good at this, but you opened my eyes to a few things I usually forget, or I just never tought of. Thanks guys!!
+Marta Martrix thanks for watching and commenting Marta! Hope you remembered to give a thumbs up and subscribe! Safe travels :)
Mad respect for starting out with condoms. Keep yourselves safe above all other concerns.
Absolute legends! This guide is seriously awesome. As a pretty much full time traveler I can verify this is an awesome guide.
+TheTravelingClatt Thank you! Anything to add to the list?
Howdy man, where you at these days TheTravelingClatt? Greetings from Paris. Next stop Goa.
Good my man! In England at the moment heading off to Miami February 5. Why dont you swing by Miami sometime man? Ill take you on some sweet adventures and flights from Europe are real cheap!
Cool, I've never been to Florida, one of these days for sure.
Awesome keep me in the loop man!
Been a fan since the Biggest, Baddest, Bucket List. The quality these last few months is insane. Cheers from a couple of fellow San Diegan travel vloggers
+Untethered Together thank you for being around so long! Love SD :)
I'm loving these organization tips!
+lifelikejosie gotta stay organized! More tips and hacks videos coming soon so stay tuned!
Perfect. Cannot wait for those :)
yea, some great tips.
I know I'm a bit late to the party on this one, but I've got an iphone case that's also a battery pack. It gives me another 1.5X the battery life. It make the phone a little thicker but it's better than carrying an extra battery pack or charging cord with you when your out and about. Instead, when your battery is low, you just power up with a button on the back and it starts to charge. It's saved me many times when I've been out for long days. BTW, thanks for all the great videos they've helped me a ton with my plans to Ireland.
This is literally my dream. Making travel vids for a living, going to by my first dslr pretty soon.
+feltq720 nice!!! What type of DSLR are you thinking about buying??
I´m bying the Nikon D7100 and my first trip using it will be Machu Pichu!
Here because of Carrie Rad- you guys are great! Love the travel vlogs :)
+kaylawilliamsmusic thank you! Carrie is the best :)
Some great travel tips for new travelers.
Love your channel, just keep uploading :-)
+DIANO MAYA thank you Diano!! Much more on the way
I'm traveling the Pacific Northwest right now and I've packed almost exactly like you would. Except more warm things - I like to be able to mix and match fleece, rain jacket, light cardigan and parka depending on whether it's rainy, ice stormy, snowstormy, or just plain chilly, all of which I've experienced in the past three weeks. The parka is always on during travel so it never takes up bag space. 👌
+Liat Noten sounds fun though! Gotta love the PNW :)
vagabrothers totally fun! We got to see Multnomah Falls when it was mostly frozen! Really enjoying Vancouver too. 👌
Great video guys! I'm happy to see that I have almost the same essentials! My tip to never forget anything as an almost full time traveler is to have a basic packing list on my phone, this way I only have to add things that are specific to the destination I'm headed to, and it's much faster to pack!
bonjour i found nour!
Hahaha I move so much you can never find me 😈
ORNITHORYNQUE
+Finding Nour Smart idea!
Happy to share ;)
If you travel you will know that it is more effective settling with a pricey gadget that will last you a long time than spending the same amount buying cheaper ones over and over. I found your tips here super legit.
+Rang Klos you know it Rang! 🙌🏼✌🏼
I'm going on a trip in 4 weeks and I just found your channel! Love it. Only halfway through the video and already subscribed. :) love how detailed you guys are. Really appreciate videos like this!
+Cuhhlowayy thank you!! Glad you subbed, make sure you turn on notifications we have TONs of videos on the way. Where are you going on your trip?
You guys are so cute! Me encantan sus vídeos, gracias!
+sandra Cortez muchas gracias Sandra. 🙏🏼 Cual de nuestro vídeos es tu favorito??
everyone is complaining about how this is not even close to minimalist, however I'm watching this and thinking "HOW DO THEY ONLY BRING 3 PAIRS OF UNDERWEAR??!?!" in literally in awe about how these guys pack so little for such a large trip....omfg 😂😂
+Hailey Lindell 😂
Hi, I think 3 pairs of underwear 's too much. If you use Exofficio (their claim 2 pair are enough is true). I'm surprised by the amount of gear people pack & think they are minimalists. I 'm trying to encourage women to carry less & still be comfortable look stylish in my packing vids, lol. Ciao
i adore how smart this marko is
A crushable fedora?! This is the greatest invention ever! I usually just wear my hat on the plane.
+crazybetty00 indeed it is! What type of hat you rocking crazybetty??
You mention Google Maps but if you’re travelling in a country whose language you don’t speak fluently, Google Translate is a godsend. You can download language packs to use offline and call it up anytime for quick translations. I always like Duolingoing a language for a few weeks or months before departure too, but obviously that’s a lot more work and only gets you so far.
13 mins of product placement ...guys I love your channel, so won't hate on you for doing this ...But maybe a little bit more subtlety next time :)
They've got to make money somehow haha
Why subtlety? This is their job, and if they're using these things, then I want to know the exact things their using so I can check it out too. I like that they're upfront about it.
yeah, this is their job. But the video is useless, if you actually are looking for ¨Minimalist DIY Travel ESSENTIALS¨
I Agree. Am constantly surprised by the amount of underwear etc. women pack & think they are minimalists. I'm trying to encourage women to carry less & still look stylish in my packing vids, lol. Ciao
TRAVEL LOVERS start packing your bagages. I am a nice guy and I have a small HACK GIFT for all you guys :) Check this great guide on how to Book $1,000 Flights for $20 bit.ly/2gTCg2u
This info is timeless, and I’m rewatching as I struggle to pack for my upcoming trip! Thank you Vagabrothers.
Great stuff. I seriously need to upgrade my traveling gadgets, you've got some good ones. I have that exact same universal power adapter though. Same journal too. Curious to see where you guys will be going in the coming year.
+Gabriel Traveler Next up, South Korea!
Sweet! Looking forward to seeing those. It's been recommended to me by various people.
Careful! You said "power converter" in the video. This isn't one. This is a power outlet adapter. Converts the pins to your liking, but NOT the voltage nor the frequency. For most electronic device, this will be enough as your iPhone charger (for example) accepts both 110 and 220 V. All you need is a power outlet adapter. BUT if your device (or its charger) supports only 110 V, do not plug it on 220, and vice versa.
+Vagabrothers - It is amazing how well organized you guys are! Love your videos » Instant subscribe! Greetings from Sunny Cape Town, South Africa! 🌅🍒
lol at "shoes" that used to be one of my favorite videos :D
+Bellinissima such an oldie but a goodie!!! Glad you got the joke ;) 🙌🏼
More so than specific brands, the most general thing about clothing is just that cotton kind of sucks while travelling. Polyester mixes and wool dry in a fraction of the time, which matters if you get caught in the rain, land in a puddle, or need to dry the clothes after washing them in a bathtub, as ya do.
This guide is awesome! Thanks guys
+Fu Talks glad you enjoyed!! Nice to see you back in the comment section :)
Thanks guys, I'm glad to be back :)
+Fu Talks glad you're back ;)
I remember when i was 7 i was on a plane but i had to sit next to a stranger. At the end of the flight, the stranger gave me a whole plastic (like a decently big one) full of candy!!!!god bless her and she probaly wont see this but THANK YOUU!!!!
I don't know how many times I've licked my lips to the point they look like I have lipstick on me. Lol. Chapstick is a must! 😆
+SoldierOfGod12 if I forget it I literally evaporate... - Alex
But peanut butter is as useful?
Watching now, packing videos are always super appreciated, I really look forward to these vids and geek out on all your little tips and tricks. Would love to hear how you guys pack for multiple climates in one trip and so forth. Keep up the good work and see you on the road!
+flavin32 good to know!!! thanks for watching and commenting and will keep that in mind for a new video
I live for these videos! I spent more time planning what was going in my backpack rather than my actual trip around the world last year. #geek
+Margot Loyer Ha! Hopefully this will help you spend less time planning and more time adventuring
Also, if you can afford them and you don't need toooo many memory cards will save space and weight compared to external hard drives. I normally have a 4TB external on me but over time have been slowly adjust things over (and keep backups in a couple externals at friends' places and backups online... I don't have a set place at all, so). And love the mention of Ex-Officio undies!!
Journal is definitely necessary when you're traveling! Thanks for helpful advice, guys and moments like 6:59 ;)
+Péter Szántó 🤙🏽🤙🏽
ON POINT ;) don't mind the haters guys! I know the gear you're carrying and promoting is a little upscale for most of us budget backpackers buttt, the general packing pretty much mirrors my essential items packing list for long-term backpacking (aka. 1-2 years at a time). The longer you travel, the more you get better at culling and only keeping the quality, important stuff hey!
RE: the solid cologne thing - I would kill for a perfume version of this! If anyone knows of a female solid perfume product available out there please let me know :) I miss perfume sooo bad but just can't justify carrying it with me when travelling (plus there's like a 99% chance of the bottle getting smashed in transit, ha). Cheers guys!
noice colour grading on this one, lads.
Looking forward to the travel style video!
+curiouscookie glad you enjoyed it! Playing around with some different styles and grades :) stay tuned!!
Things i learned from my travels : carry a strong lock for the hostels, a bit of tiger balm for weird odors in planes/trains/hostels and relieving headaches, carry your toileteries in a clear ziplock bag so you can go through TSA without digging through your bag and having everyone hating you, carry more ziplock bags in case something spill/you need to separate laundry or a wet swim suit/bring back rocks or sand ! Also those moleskin tapes will save your feet when you do a lot of walking
"Even when you're in a relationship bring these for someone else....." ........ Bros, are you trying to get me killed? o_0
When u r not in relationship 😂not in relationship
LOVE your wall colour!
1:30 they just throw some word in my language like this lol, i didnt expect that !!
baksheesh: giving someone money to make them "happily" do something for you.
hashish: weed.
A minimalist/3-1-1 "hack" is to make toothpaste dots. Put down a pea-sized dab of toothpaste and let it dry. After that you can put them in a snack sized ziplock and it will not count as a liquid. When you're ready, wet your brush wet the dot, put it on your brush get down to business.
If you like painting/sketching, take a few pieces of good paper, cut them in half, fold them again depending on the size you want, then either stitch or staple them together with a piece of Manila folder as a cover. The flat style of toothbrush travel container will hold six pencils, or grab a water brush and either a travel size watercolor palette or make one using tubed watercolor paint. Take a piece of that good paper, fold it like a greeting card then on the inside put dots of paint spaced out (just like the toothpaste) and let it dry. When It's completely dry put it inside the book you made and you're off.
you are amazing both of you this video was awesome
+Eva Theone thank you Eva🙏🏼🙏🏼
You guys were super informative and you made your video very fun I loved it please keep making videos
great tips! u should do a video on moving abroad, shipping your stuff and moving with your pet etc. i am moving abroad. i am shipping my car and my stuff via freight. im using a company to take care of flying my cats over to me😊
L 444 we kinda go over that stuff in our vlog. We were living in Maui before we left on our Overlanding The Pan American Highway adventure.
Omg I had that burrito during my freshman year and used it as a pencil case everyone at school loved it
OMFG that kelly reference
+Faith Dawn hahaha 🙌🏼🙌🏼
1. SeaToSummit XL UltraLight FastDry Travel Towel. It works as a neck warmer.
2. Mini Soap Bars
3. Universal Power Charger and Cables
4. A batik sarong (connected and sewn)... it is multipurpose....use it for anything.
5. Windproof UV Jacket
6. Good quality U shaped inflatable neck pillow
loooove it, great guide guys :) I'm def going to look into solid perfume!
+Amanda Round the Globe thanks Amanda! Safe travels :)
I'm going to Taiwan soon (RIP Grandpa 😭😭😭😞😫😥) and this video helps a lot. Thank you guys!
+Dragon Cat sorry to hear about your grandma but Taiwan looks like such a cool country. Hope you manage to enjoy it even in the situation. Much love!!
I have never seen so much product promotion in a so-called minimalist video. Separate camera when I've always got my phone? Earphones instead of earbuds? A fancy case just for the cords (and enough electronics with different cords that you might even want such a thing)... Three pairs of footwear??? I think these guys have a very different definition of "minimalism" than me...
+Schrödinger's Ape we are travel film makers and the electronics section is for us to be able to film and edit on the road. For a film crew, this is ultra minimalist ✌🏼
I got a high end smartphone but it doesn't hold a candle to my Ricoh GR camere for photography.
I Agree. This vid is less helpful if you're a regular traveller. I'm surprised by the amount of gear people pack & think they are minimalists.I'm trying to encourage women to carry less & still look stylish in my packing vids, lol. Ciao
Right phone is enough and one pair of shoes. I'm going to NYC so I did pack a pair of pj's to change into after shower so I don't smell like NYC when sleep. I am mostly packed for first weekend in November obviously few last minute packing have to do but that's stuff being used till I go. I also packed couple snacks because I wanted clean snack for 5hr event on Saturday I don't want make mess but worried about food. I've got 2 outfits packed that's it only 1 pair shoes that will be on my feet.
I think you guys just saved my life. I COMPLETELY forgot about my passport. Thank you!
"Passport organiser" (in other words, girl's purse, lmao) 😂😂😂, JK!!!
Totally agree Lea. This adds extra weight. Product endorsement??? Best use an inexpensive lightweight RFID blocking passport sleeve. I 'm surprised by the amount of gear people pack & think they are minimalists. Heavy noise-cancelling headphones, lol. Also makes them prime target for thieves!!! I'm trying to encourage people to carry less & still be safe, comfortable & look stylish in my packing vids. Ciao
Lea Gill but then you have to take it out EVERY time you go through immigration, best just get a sleeve
I’m watching all your videos on tips what and how to pack and what type of traveling backpack to buy. I’ll be traveling to Mexico and Central America later this summer. Thank you both for all the tips, and where to buy many of these products.
Digital burrito? That's rad! #want!!!
+Squiggles Travels they also have a spring roll version depending on your culinary tastes haha
Thanks! Found you guys while searching for photographer travel tips. Going to Argentina with a stop in Uruguay in January 2018 :)
This is such a great video! I just started my channel and I'm stoked on this.
+Chelsea Vicari cheers Chelsea!! Good luck :)🍀
The thing I love about minimalism is all you need to buy are these specific 25 products
YAAAASSSSSSSSS! Keep the videos coming :D Apartment/ house tour coming soon ?? lol
+Cristian Sandoval Coming very soon...
Just keep uploading :-)
I loved this video! Being able to travel full time is my life goal. Do you guys have a video where you talk about how you got started doing that and how you turned it into your job?
+Tiana Young Yes! Check out "Our Story" video from last year!
These are tips for "touristing", not travelling. Noise cancelling headphones? Ipads, laptops, maps to get from airport to hotel? Hotel? :D vagabrothers, more like "netflixing around the world".
Only partly agree. Not planning to take a laptop my next trip - for about 1/3 the size and weight I bought one of those 3 TB My Passport Pro backup thingies. Have a Samsung pad, which can do just about anything a laptop can do except edit.
Good point on the "dark window", but if you are getting bored while travelling then you either aren't paying attention to your surroundings, which is defeating the point of travelling int he first place, or guess you've just travelled to the wrong place.
Clarence Laboranti When you are 30,000 feet up there is not much to pay attention to.
hahahah, made my day :D
it's advertising sold as minimalism travelling lol
You make me wanna travel like..right now! Can't wait for my next trip, glad to have all these tips from you guys! Great video, as always! Lots of love!
+LittleMissPipedream thank you for your comment, next trip is coming VERY soon. Make sure you have notifications turned on 👍🏽👍🏽
hi, where's the video of fitting it all on the carry on bag?
+dapuy12 coming soon! Many more packing videos on the way! Hope you subscribe and stay tuned :)
Great stuff guys!! Keep up the excellent work! Don't listen to all the negative comments! Do what makes you happy!
Thumbs up for "OMG. Shoes." Lets get some shoes!
+Blythe Vrindavana hahaha we old school like that ;)
We have been traveling with our two kids now for three years and we have yet to master this. There are too many debates on what is needed or not, so we compromise on over packing. We love our travel life and would not trade it for the world.
+World Towning Any tips on traveling with kids?
Searched for some minimalist travel packing tips found some hot guys. Nice!
+Annelie Peter haha 👋🏼👋🏼
great video! I realized what the essentials to pack are only after backpacking on my last trip! Hoping to achieve a day where I don't overpack.
Hi Stephanie. Travelling with less takes time and practice. I'm trying to encourage people to carry less & still be safe, comfortable & look stylish in my packing vids - they could help you learn how for future trips? Main thing is to get out there! Prob leave the noise-cancelling headphones at home!! Ciao
I always need my phone 📱 and laptop 💻
+milatinaamor817 amen :)
Im watching this and preparing for my backpack trip THANKS GUYS !
Headphones and tablet to Netflix? A passport organiser and cable taco that are each twice as bulky as their contents? These things are the antithesis of MINIMALIST and ESSENTIALS, the words you emphasise so much. I get the laptop cause blogging is your job.
Also your stuff is super expensive- any traveller with a lick of sense will tell you the things you're carrying need to be replaceable, because on the road they can and will get damaged, irreversibly stained or lost.
Most of your other advice is good though. The pills, condoms, power converter and all I agree with. I especially endorse getting an e-book reader. Even the cheapest kindle model, in addition to being a handheld library with a month of battery, has a basic web browser. You can also look up words in the inbuilt dictionary and load it with maps.
Totally agree Alex. Heavy noise-cancelling headphones etc., lol. All this clobber makes them prime target for thieves!!! I 'm surprised by the amount of gear people pack & think they 're minimalists. I'm trying to encourage
people to carry less & still be safe, comfortable & look stylish in my packing vids. Ciao
We just sold our fifth-wheel and have down sized all of our belongings to a Subaru Outback. We travel with 2 kids and 2 cats. Hope to travel outside the U.S someday. Thanks for the tips!
I love traveling light so I usually pack as little as I can in a small backpack. But sometimes they stop me at the airport and once I was almost denied entry into Canada when taking a bus from Seattle. They said I was suspicious because I didn't have a lot of luggage. WTF! Why would I want to lug around so much shit. I really get annoyed when I get stopped. Anyone else experience this??
Glad you're liking the All Conditions Essentials Pocket, great tips!
+Bellroy cheers!!
Your video is ok but it's clear you don't really apply the minimalist concept, like at all.
+Felipe Rodríguez Pinto we travel full time and make films on the road. For long term travel and film making this is ultra minimalist. That being said we are always open to ditching products we don't need. Feel free to share your Minimalist travel essentials Felipe ✌🏼❤️
Felipe Rodríguez Pinto god my thoughts exactly. This is the worst 'minimalist' video
Felipe Rodríguez Pinto why all the hate?
And Rebecca Mackay, try making a "minimalist" video yourself, see who does crappier video
I Agree. This vid is less helpful if you're a regular traveller. I'm surprised by the amount of gear people pack & think they are minimalists. I'm trying to encourage women to carry less & still look stylish in my packing vids, lol. Ciao
Thanks guys! This is a really huge help.
+Martin Tabanag cheers Martin! Glad you enjoyed
Eye drops are good too.
+Kyoto Kat definitely a great addition,
Dry airplane air definitely gives red eye
Came across this vid. while "YouSurfing", travelled the world quite a bit in the last 15 years myself (2 world trips, Japan, Vanuatu, Canada and Alaska, New Zealand, USA...). GREAT tips, very entertaining gents. Thanks very much.
"Ohmy god shoes" Am I the only one that got the reference?
I love that there is no fragile masculinity in this video! They know they need lip balm and they’re not afraid to say so. The way guys should be!
You forgot to mention IMODIUM because (insert Forrest Gump a voice here) "shit happens"
+Tahimi XD hahahaha 🙌🏼 good tip!!
Quite right! Immodium but also Gastro Stop, Hydralyte, malaria tabs etc. Minimalist packing needs to consider all aspects - if you are in the middle of nowhere & "shit happens" travel meds are better than heavy electronics:)
Hashish and Bag'shish could be the title of an interesting Travel Novel lol !!
2 Thums up for Bakhsheesh ~ From India
+Antonio hahaa 🙌🏼 India is on our list! Hopefully going this fall. Any tips for us??
vagabrothers Meet me. I will show yoi around. I am in Delhi...👍👍👍
First video I'm watching of you guys! And I AM IN LOVE ALREADY! :) You guys are awesome! :)
So it''s okay to bring a razor on carry-on? I'm kind of unclear on this. Thanks for the tips, boys
+angelicharmony yes it's ok a long as it is not a strait razor :)
vagabrothers thanks for the info!
I like your talks about products. Some are not (yet) available from my country and i have to ebay them. It is interesting where you have products i never seen before. I'll keep watching, stay cool you guys
Awesome tips bros!! cheers
+Estevam Pelo Mundo muito obrigado Estevam!! 🙌🏼 any tips of your own to add?
This video is amazing! Thank you. (I didn't even know a universal plug adapter existed-- I thought you just had to buy one for each country!) Also thank you SO MUCH for captioning your videos and making them accessible!
Anyone know where I can get a power converter like that one 2:34 ?
+Vanessa Martinez should be able to get one on amazon :)
What you called a "power converter" is only and adaptor so you can use different physical plug configurations. Power converters change the voltage from 110 to 220 or vice versa. You won't need a converter in too many places these days for your cameras, laptops, or phones.
