    Before getting progressive lenses, I was definitely a person looking for the readers perched on my head. Also, I tend to carry my phone around the house in my bra to listen to audiobooks while doing chores. I used to have an iPhone mini and one evening I was looking all over for my phone. My husband called my number. Yep. My bra began ringing. 🙄🤷‍♀️ Those lip balms look great. I’ll have to try those. Various lip balms are stashed all over the house so I always need more. 😊

    I haven't even finished watching this video yet but had to say before I forgot - yes, tips for taking better pictures (poses and other hints) with my cell phone would be so helpful! I never know what to do with my hands and always end up looking like a Vanna White wannabe. LOL You mentioned iPhone, but I use an Android, so if there are differences, I'd love to hear the Android side as well. I know it's been a minute since you posted this video, so I'll check to see if I missed it in my scan of your channel. I never even thought to search for this, so even if you haven't/don't make one, now that I know this kind of thing is out there, I know to look for it. :D Thank you!

    I like your milk glass. I was given a gift of a beautiful 3 bud holder in milk glass that I have never seen, and when I see yours, I think of her. Can you go over how to use your phone when overseas. I did find out you could use it free with wifi, but I couldn't figure out how to use it on the go. My sister used her texting and had a large bill when we got home. Thank you

      I never take my bag to the toilet with me, and honestly don't think I've seen many others do it unless its a diaper bag for their child. The lavatories are so small and cramped (and usually not the cleanest) there is no where to put your bag. Plus I just generally believe the best in humanity 😊

    Carry a SMALL TOWEL from the hotel bathroom for the dirty park benches. Place the towel inside a PLASTIC bag, that can also be used for groceries.
    Carry only XEROX copies of your passport and drivers license. Never the originals. Keep those in the hotel safe. If you have to buy something with your passport ID, the retail people ONLY NEED YOUR NAME and PASSPORT NUMBER. A xerox copy will accomplish this just fine. Even the cops will accept a xerox copy of the passport. LOCK your passport in your hotel safe or luggage.
    Ditch the umbrella. Ask the hotel concierge to lend you one (they have a dozen behind the counter of every hotel).
    Forget the phone charger - Travelers need to STOP BEING MORONS and simply charge the stupid thing up before exiting the hotel. If you cant even leave your hotel without burning through a 15 hour phone battery, then you SHOULD NOT BE TRAVELING. Get OFF your stupid phone. I would leave my hotel room in the morning and return with 80%+ on the battery, even with liberal use.
    A phone stand? Just use the napkin holder at the restaurant and prop your phone upright.
    Eye Glass cleaners? Use your shirt sleeve or a Kleenex (which your brought along).

      Calling people "morons" says a lot more about you than them.

      I have worn glasses for 56 years and with eye wear costing as much as it does,
      I take extra care to clean my glasses with the proper tools to avoid damage to the lenses. A shirt sleeve or any clothing can scratch a lens, and a Kleenex leaves behind lint. Some travel items hold more priority to certain individuals.

      “Morons”? Thanks a lot.🤨
      Never ever leave your passport or ID in your hotel safe or in the room nowadays.
      Look at the fires in Maui where no one could get back to collect their things.
      If there’s a fire, flood or demonstration near your accommodation, you’re not going to be allowed back in.
      A lot of countries require you to have ID on you at all times…..not copies.
