First like from me😄
Packing cubes!! For sure, save so much space 😊 btw, always love your packing videos!!
Nah, after the Away scandal, I can't really support them as a company anymore. I know they sponsor you but c'mon. Hopefully after your contract expires with them, you can find a more ethical and employee-centered company.
The link to travel gear doesn’t work if you’re from a different country (at least for me)
Hey have a question about your carry ons! How do you get on traveling with 2 carry on luggages, or do you usually check in your suitcase? Potentially a European thing but our airlines are usually one one bag. Cheers!
Question: Do you guys buy souvenirs from places you visit even if its just an little magnet? If you do can you make a video of them please and thank you!
I sell magnets btw
I could sense that moment of genuine fear in Eric's voice when he went back and the suitcase started to give way
Love how your suitcases fit all your things for 5 years of full-time travel. You organize it pretty well. Thank you for your ideas we will surely apply this on our future travels.
When it comes to packing, it’s about what works for YOU. You two are magicians... you keep on pulling more stuff out of your bags! Enjoyed this packing video!
I LOVE learning new travel hacks! I have definitely tried a few different packing methods during my travels. Much like Eric and Allison, I'm more of a folder while my husband is more of a roller when it comes to our packing clothes preferences!
One of my go-to travel tips is that I always pack a change of clothes in my backpack. While I almost never check luggage, I like having a change of clothes and my toiletries bag handy so that I can easily change/freshen up in the nearest bathroom. I'm the kind of traveler that I like to get up and go as soon as I arrive to a new place, but I'm always better at it if I feel like I have cleaned up a bit! I also always wear my glasses to the airport now (my contacts just get too dry while flying) and have discovered that gummy bears make for the best remedy for airplane ear-popping!
Agree with you about always bringing an umbrella! I always do and it has come in handy a couple of times!
I love love love compression bags for clothing! They aren’t vacuum sealed you just manually squeeze they air out and they are life saving. I use them every single time I fly without fail
Hey Eric & Allison! Greetings from Singapore! I have not caught up with your videos in the longest time! Now is the perfect time to binge on all your amazing videos while staying home. Looking forward to more of your endless adventures in the future when all this blows over!
My wife and I really loved this video! Great helpful ideas. Now my travel bug is really getting me. Thanks so much!
LOVE THIS!! More ideas....I would love to see a "tattoo tour" with the stories behind them :)
Aaaaand there is a company that will do temporary tattoos- themed temporary tats?????? Yaaaaaas
Evening guys. Loving the lockdown updates and the where we are attitude. I’ve been thinking on ideas for content that doesn’t involve travelling. You have been travelling for some times and have so much historic content, maybe you can use that to punctuate a video series ‘top tens’. Top ten nightmare journeys, top ten best experiences, top ten fave beaches or view, top ten best food experiences, top ten worst things you’ve eaten, top ten modes of transport, top ten places you stayed and so on. Not only will it be fun for you both to revisit memories but it will add a different dimension to your content.
Another idea might be a compilation video 1 video recapping your exploits in a country, with a commentary over the top/filmed to one side - “oh! Do you remember that, or this?” “Remember when we nearly...?” It will help newer subscribers view old content and provide new content.
I’ve also always wondered how your families view your lifestyle? We heard of Alison travelling back for bachelorette parties etc. But what about parents, siblings, friends nieces etc. What is the emotional cost and is it worth it? Just some ideas a fan thought up - keep going and stay safe
Now I know why I watch you guys. You can make a bag video Fun. So many quirky moments! Thanks a million!
I would 100% purchase endless adventure compression socks haha! I'm serious! I wore my compression socks in my house when I was finishing grad school because I sat at the computer for 12 hours straight. I tell everyone what a difference compression socks make! I will not fly or road trip without them, ever!!! :) :) loved this video! stay safe out there! :)
Thanks for the video! today I'm a full time traveler and this helps me a lot because I have been struggling with my backpack.
I missed you guys! So cool to have you back... that’s a great idea and hopefully some day you could launch your own travel accessories line. ! You’re the experts and no doubts it’ll be very successful !!! See you round. ! All the best. Cheers!
Thanks so much for sharing your videos. I always look forward to your stuff. Can't wait to see you on the road again.
You guys crack me up! Loved this video- especially the workout and raincoat demos.
I’m ready for you guys to get in the travel mode! It will come, don’t rush.
It's inspiring that you have paired down your belongings to just the essentials, so that you enjoy life more fully.
My favorite feature of the Away Carry-On was the small zippered pouch at the bottom. Was the perfect hiding place to keep an engagement ring and surprise my fiancée :)
Haha there you go!
Hi guys, nice vids. When we travel we carry a small flashlight and a few tea candles in case the power goes out. One time in Albuquerque that all paid off.
We use vacuum storage bags to make our clothes less voluminous! Works a treat! 😀
Compression socks pretty much saved my life on my UK - NZ trip. Very worth getting fir any flight over 4 hrs .
YESSS FINALLY! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!
You can’t travel right now and still you manage to make my favorite travel vlogs. I’ve gathered a number of travel supplies from your recommendations including Away luggage, the Velcro reuse-able ties, and the foam filled cases that I eventually removed the foam from as well. So now here’s what I want now...in addition to branded compressions socks and poncho that is 😉 I want you guys to make an Endless Adventure cloth patch to sew on my travel bag. Would you get on that!? Alison, I’m always so impressed by how you manage your clothing. Even though I recognize your clothing from vlog to vlog you always put outfits together in a way that look fresh and so pretty. Okay, so get on that logo patch!
Great video! I travel quite a bit (nothing like you guys though) and I am impressed at how good you are at packing. Wow!
Perfect video to watch before packing for first little post-lockdown road trip!
Thanks for the hacks, I might as well use some of your tips and hacks, will now have a perfect things to be put inside my carry on travel bag, my Nomad Lane Bento Bag. It is just so perfect for my travel for its great features. Happy travel everyone!
As a nurse who wears compression socks daily, I would absolutely buy TEA compression socks merch 😂
Need to get some for my momma! haha
Eric is sooooo neat. The way he packs, omg. Allison, you have my sympathies
I have really enjoyed watching all your adventures. It is nice to follow a couple Missouri natives. I live in Cape Girardeau. Your vlogs have helped me figure out my bucket list. Unfortunately, COVID-19 canceled our #1 bucket list trip to Ireland last month, but we are very hopeful we will get there in the next year or so. Your vlogs helped me plan our itinerary. I look forward to your future travel adventures. Stay safe!
Thanks guys. You two are fun and very real.
This is the first video of yours that I saw and a few minutes into it - Subscribed! 😁 I really enjoyed both of your energy. Will be watching more of your videos!
Allison should look at the 'Pacsafe Citysafe CX Anti-Theft Backpack' - very similar style to what you're carrying but has the suitcase strap on the back 🙌🏻
Looked at that. Looks half the size of hers. I'd go with the Pacsafe bag myself but looks like she carries a lot more stuff around (I'm v minimalist these days - a lot of the time it's just me and my phone wallet; altho back in the day I can remember it was just me and my camera case if only out half the day)
I have the same headphones! So good. Especially for flying.
Yey, I love packing/travel gear videos! And yes I would totally buy your compression socks 😂🙌🏼 I need to invest in a pair of those for sure.
OMGoodness you two are adorable! Love your episodes and especially love that they are clean content and can watch them with my kiddos! You should totally add compression socks and a rain poncho to your merch store. Also would love to see a video on what equipment you use for filming, what computer and software you use to edit, tips on filming, keeping the camera steady while filming and stuff like that. Thanxs for always being so upbeat but also real! The photos on Instagram are incredible. Great job to you both!
There's so much love in this video. God bless you, guys)
Thank you so much for posting this video!!! I am especially wanting to know how you pack your backpack and get along with only that.
Wow guys you really pack that gear in , great use of space.Love your channel keep em coming 👍
Live the video. Thank you for sharing, it's really useful for beginner travellers :)
Just watching all the stuff related to this and you guys pop up
Yay!! Thanks for doing this one!
Very interesting&practical video! Thanks!
New to the channel and late to party. Just wanted to say thanks for the variety of content and how entertaining you are. I'll catch up eventually. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and taking us along for the ride. Safe travels!
Great video! We can’t wait to get back on the road! Cheers!
hmmmm. I dont think its the most practical packing items I've seen..not even on my top 10 but I'm glad it works for you which is the most important thing in travel. Packing is very personal.. Goodluck Advntures! love ya guys
You guys are really great and I have been watching your videos for a long time now. The most disappointing thing about all this though you guys are great and show us some amazing offbeat places to stay and adventures, its the low number of views you guys get. Keep travelling and taking us around the world :D
Great tips & Advice 😍 Thanks so much!!!
This was a cool video. Always nice to see how long-term travelers pack and what gear is used. Oooh yes! I’d buy a couple pairs of TEA compression socks 🤩
Lovey your bag Alison .. you done well both of. Considering what you can take with you .
Great video .. 😊Take care .
So strange I literally just finished watching all of you old travel item videos!! I'm watching all your backlog and living vicariously through your adventures during quarantine!
That Tomtoc Switch case was one of the best things I ever bought! Solid, indentations for the thumb sticks and the back of the controllers and space for 10 games and I picked it up on Amazon for £9.99!
You both do great packing items. Good tips!
Raspberry lime sounds tasty.
I like packing cubes. I’d never turn back. Yes sometimes it means there’s extra bits of space not filled but I see that as room to put other stuff in that I buy when I’m away.
Compression socks are great to keep your blood from clotting and giving you DVT (deep vein thrombosis) or blood clot which can form from being in small cramped spaces like sitting in airplane or bus/car where you can't get up and get ,moving to get circulation to prevent clotting. Like if you are hospitalized for any number of days, they have wrapable velcroed pieces that you put on and are connected to the hospital bed and electronically inflate and deflate squeezing your legs to keep circulation and prevent blood clots since you usually arent moving when hospitalized.
"summer bod here I come" F'n hysterical
Love this! Vudeo.
How bout a What was our favorite places or experiences. 💕
A good backpack that has the holder in the back is tumi. It’s a little bit more expensive but it holds up pretty well, has a lot of room and looks nice.
You two are awesome! Thanks for another interesting video
You could top it all off with some packing cubes for your clothes - they are amaaaazing!
great video im considering doing on just carryon for my next trip
I laughed so hard at "Yeah! Summer Bod, here I come!" And Eric's response. 😂😂😂😂 I had to replay it several times. Thanks for the laugh.
I think you’re going to have an amazing American adventure! Yes!!!!!
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser will take most of the scuffs and marks off your Away suitcases. I have the same bag and LOVE it!! It always seems to fit in the center section overhead.
I purchased the Kah&Kee Leather Backpack and LOVE it. I also wear comprehension socks for flights and I noticed a difference.
I purchased a Kah&Kee Leather Backpack from one of their affiliate links recently and while quarantine has limited my ability to go anywhere I already am in love with it!
Nice tips!! I've been travelling a lot and have a packing list but always struggle to pack everything in the limited space. Got some ideas from your video. Thank you for sharing!!
Interesting seeing how your packing has evolved over time.
As a former glasses/contacts wearer, I'd recommend getting laser eye surgery. It frees up the space that the eye related stuff takes up in your bag, frees up time with fiddling around with contacts and most importantly makes adventure activities a lot easier.
such a great vlog to watch thankyou for sharing, but i personally wouldnt travel without packing cubes they were a game changer for me.
I found that fascinating, thanks!
Hard suitcases are an essential if one has seen the way baggage handlers chuck them about, they will often fall off baggage trucks on the way to the plane when the hold is loose loaded. Always ensure fragile items are surrounded by clothes as padding.
I would love to hear about your health while traveling. Clean water, safe food, any food poisoning incidents, etc.
I came from Kara and Nate it’s so funny when yous were doing the useless things u carry
I also love my Sony headphones that much! 😍
I’m a happy girl anything travel makes me happy especially packing videos
Glad to hear you enjoyed this one 🙌
Nice video 👏👏👏 Eric I have them exact same headphones they are so good.
Hey Guys! Enjoyed the Vlog as always! I miss seeing you guys on the road. When I travel I take my DSLR along with five lenses and a tripod. This year I bought a new bag that unzips so that you can just see all your equipment if someone else is holding the bag and on the side it has a pocket and strap for my tripod instead of my tripod being carried separately. I love this new bag! Hope to see you traveling again soon. Maybe to Greenland and Peru????
Help everyone, thanks for your great job in your videos.
Different coloured compression socks would be great 😉
Love, love, love seeing this video!! I was wondering which Away carry on you both had. I am in the market for new luggage and this might be the brand I choose. Plus, yes, like every other person, I was obsessed with Allison’s backpack, until one day I was searching for one like it on Amazon and found it last summer (I no longer carry a purse, I wear backpacks and Allison’s was the perfect one for any occasion) You guys are great! I absolutely love all of your content, no matter the type! Stay safe out there! 😎 Can’t wait to see what you do next! 🤩Shout out from Southeast Texas!
Thanks for the comment, Shante! Switching to a backpack was the best decision! It carries everything you could ever want and distributes the weight evenly 🎒😊We're hoping to get back to TX soon! Until then, hold things down for us and try not to get too toasty ☀️😂
I luv ur partnership and how u guys are together in this journey
For the record, I would absolutely buy your TEA compression socks! Seriously.
You both should try using the space saver travel bags, they have ones where you compress and roll out the air! They would probably be great for Allison when packing👍
great video guys!
You guys seem like fun people
what a fun video idea . . . I know you guys are livin' the travel bug life . . . this is killing us!!
You guys are hilarious. I love it!
I’m literally drinking a spindrift as I watch! Loved the video :)
You obviously have great taste 😁🥤
I know that those suitcases just flew to the top of my personal wishlist.
yes for the compression socks lol! you guys are fun!
My husband and I are leaning hard on the sparkling waters right now to spark a bit of joy during these times 😂😂
gosh this makes me want to travel soo bad!!!!
I'd buy your branded compression socks :)
Same here! Preferably in the light blue color!
Having your logo embroidered in the same colour as the socks would not look tacky.
After 120 countries since 1985, countless trips on airplanes, boats, bikes, trikes, camels and more recently grab I have some input. You have less stuff than many people I see traveling but way more than I personally carry. My 25 litre pack and all contents weigh 12 pounds (5.4 kg). This is enough stuff to travel indefinitely. For a winter trip to Iceland (not the greatest time to visit!) I added a winter coat, and long johns. The trick is to hand wash clothes, roll in a towel to pre dry and hang up. Most people have way too many clothes. The advantages of traveling light really standout in more remote destinations, boarding buses, taxis, motos, dug out canoes with everything you have, keeps your stuff safe from pilfering. My splurge: I take 2 cell phones, 2 sunglasses, 2 hats (bald) and sony noise cancelling headphones- life saver-. I did start out in 1985 carrying a ridiculous pack, tent, army surplus down sleeping bag, a dozen books, must have weighed over 20kg. Within a few months I downsized to a small gym bag, and never looked back. Safe travels everyone.
I love seeing how my fellow travelers pack!!!! Gives me ideas 😁
YOU SHOULD MILITARY ROLL YOUR CLOTHES, WILL FIT MORE.
Love you guys!!
Military roll your clothes into packing cubes. Mesh bags can double as shoe storage, produce/stuff and also laundry. Also low key shocked Eric checks his bag with all your electronics and credit cards! Anything you can't bear to lose should always be on your person.
I feel so anxious about your drone being above the wheels in the suitcase. I always try avoid delicate or breakables near the wheels in case go over bumpy road and damages something. I'm guessing Alison just packs sports bras as easier to pack? I would be curious what your toiletries are, I always pack too much. I got a mini straightener recently for travel and saves so much space.
You guys make such a cute couple! :) Loved the video..
