While daily vlogging was not the original plan, we were having way too many cool experiences not to share every single day!

Keep the photos in a protected file on your puter or store on a cloud (or both) in case anything is ever lost or stolen. You will have the information you need in order to cancel anything and be able to report to the authorities if stolen. Safe travels to you all!! :)

    +Kara and Nate I've discovered vacuum bags for packing and my reasons are this:
    a). When you roll your clothes, put them in the bag and push the air out, you save a ton of space, your cloths don't wrinkle.
    b). I put a piece of fabric softener in there, the cloths smell good and I have a division from my shoes/dirty laundry.
    c). Luggage takes on water, clothes stay dry.
    I carry a flat packing laundry bag that I designed back in 2003. It has two wire frames and fits perfectly flat inside the front inside panel of my carry on. With just one piece of clothing in it, it will stand up on it's own, it packs/expands to the amount of clothes in it so you can pack it, keep your clean clothes in the vacuum bag and dirty in the laundry basket. When full, it has handles so it can be used as a laundry basket. I never travel without it and it's ALWAYS useful.

    In the first 2:30mins I came to a WHOLE NEW APPRECIATION for how natural Kara is around a camera. Not posing (unless it's being silly), not overly fussing with herself, not trying to 'laugh pretty', not trying to position herself to be noticed... suddenly it just hit me how REAL she is on camera. And yes, I know there's edited moments of grumpiness and it's obvious when she's being cutesy with Nate but that's also... REAL. Kara you're one in a billion!!!

    I take my prescription pills in little pill baggies (from Walgreens) -they are very small and lightweight and I transfer my prescription label onto them so I have it in case I have to prove what everything is. And we keep them from trip to trip so they're ecofriendly too. Loved this video - helpful and funny too!

    Ginger candies work so well for combating nausea. I am very susceptible to motion sickness and dramamine only makes me sleepy without helping the nausea. They kept me from feeling sick on the plane, the ferry, the speed boat, the longtail, in the minivan transfers from krabi to ko lanta, and on hwy 1095 to Pai. Just bite off a small piece and suck on it when you start to feel queasy. Thank you so much for this tip. I always have a couple in my day bag while traveling within easy reach. Small, light and easy to carry. I gave one to a woman on the speedboat tour who was actually turning green and starting to panic due to no sickness bag. She was fine in two minutes and couldn't thank me enough. I told her to thank you all. This tip has changed my life. I ordered mine off amazon before leaving for Thailand. Only problem is I need to find more before I fly back to the states. Thanks again.

      Ginger has been a game changer for me, too! I use dried ginger capsules instead of candy, though, since I can't resist gobbling up the candy for pleasure! ; - D Capsules are also lighter weight for travel. - When they mentioned the barf bag I was like, yup, makes sense! LOL Even though ginger has dramatically improved my nausea, I still refuse to break the habit of carrying a lightweight produce bag just in case!

  • @bellaluce7088
    @bellaluce7088 Рік тому +1

    My favorite packing tip of all time (courtesy of professional tour guide Sarah Murdoch of Adventures with Sarah) is to literally WEIGH each article of clothing and pack what's lightest. Game changer!
    Also: 1) Starting with the lightest possible bag that meets your organizational/durability preferences. I love the suitcase-like clamshell opening of the Cotopaxi Allpa 35L so I can see where my stuff is without digging around, but Sarah Murdoch once packed 15lbs. for a two-week trip in a school-sized backpack with a small day bag/sling. Watching her pull a normal-sized down pillow out of it was like a magic trick! #priorities ; - )
    2) International carry-on size backpack vs. suitcase for comfortable hands-free travel and ease on stairs, cobblestones, and dirt paths
    3) Separate comfy ultralight day pack and at least one lightweight nylon shopping bag for purchases
    4) Re-wearing outer layers like sweaters and trousers multiple times and prioritizing at least seven ultralight shirts and undies so I can focus on fun instead of laundry!
    - Seven shirts is controversial to some, but so worth it to me for the logistical freedom from frequent hand washing & thinking about drying times or finding laundromats or laundry services. And since three (or more!) ultralight shirts can literally take the space and weight of ONE regular shirt, my bag is still easy to carry
    - On Gossamer or Fruit of the Loom mesh undies weigh almost nothing and dry in a snap
    5) A few key comfort items in day pack since being warm, pain-free, hydrated, and not hungry can make the inevitable hassles and delays of travel feel more like a fun adventure:
    - lightweight but warm fleece or wool hat, even in neutral climates (we lose a ton of heat through our heads, so great for cold airplane flights, windy train platforms, or being out from day to night when the temperature drops)
    - water, mini snack, ibuprofen, dried ginger capsules for motion sickness, Benadryl, a few bandaids, sunscreen
    - wide and long lightweight scarf (multi-purpose for sun coverage, warmth, covering shoulders at religious sites, dressing up an outfit, etc.)
    -
    WINTER clothing tips from someone who's lived in sub-zero climates:
    * Check what the locals wear: chances are you probably don't need boots if you're traveling in cities vs. wilderness trekking
    * Make sure every outfit is compatible with freezing outdoors AND sweltering indoors:
    - Multiple thinner weight, easily adjustable layers (e.g. instead of a turtleneck, thick pullover sweater, bulky parka, and thick wool hat and scarf, a lightweight undershirt, thin to medium sweater, open-front vest or medium jacket, crushable down outer jacket, and varied weight hat and scarves)
    * I use TWO hats for ideal temperature regulation: a thin but ultra-warm base hat (fleece or wool) plus a stretchier and lighter second hat to swap as needed or layer both if outdoors after sunset or sitting/standing still for a long time
    * Warm outer layer scarf (broad and pliable vs. thick and bulky for better filling of air gaps), plus ultralight scarf for indoors (I swap them when going in or out, or layer both when extra cold)
    -
    My favorite time-tested, truly excellent SUN PROTECTION products:
    * Colorescience SPF50 POWDERED sunscreen with brush applicator. Expensive but packs light, doesn't count towards liquids, and really works! Check their website for 3-for-2 or 2-for-1 deals
    * San Diego hat company UPF50 ribbon hat with 5" brim. Totally crushable yet re-forms like magic, and brim is easily adjustable to block slanting rays. Truly an amazing product
    * La Roche Posay anthelios mineral sunscreen (no breakouts even with my ultra-sensitive skin!). Seems expensive, but goes farther than more watery brands, so cheaper and lighter to carry per ounce of sun protection
    -
    For the LADIES:
    * Diva cup and/or washable pads and/or period panties
    * Mini glam pack in day bag for dressing up an outfit for evening without having to go back to lodgings (mine fits in a coin purse and weighs only a couple ounces!):
    - fancy statement earrings and/or necklace
    - eyeliner and lip liner used with lip balm for lighter carry than lipsticks. (Every little bit helps!)
    - bobby pins, hair elastic, and/or combs or barrette
    - optional ultralight pretty sheer scarf (my favorite weighs almost nothing and fits in my 3 by 4.5 inch flat coin purse with everything above)
    * For work or special occasion travel (e.g. weddings) where social norms of wearing varied outfits may feel more pressing:
    - multiple ultralight scarves in different colors and patterns can add huge variety to a minimalist capsule wardrobe in almost no space or weight
    - V- or scoop-necks worn back to front
    - Elastic-waist straight skirt rolled up at top to vary length
    - Consider contrasts of light and dark, texture, pattern, color, and/or silhouette for more visual variety
    - Prioritize more tops vs. bottoms for more variety in photos (and less laundry!)
    - Buy/commission or make reversible skirts, shirts, dresses, and sweaters:
    Lots of ideas at Helene Clarkson, Diane Von Furstenberg, Vetta, Twee in One, etc.
    Some cute ones:
    - black Arica Reversible Tank Top and the Roma 4 Way Reversible Sweater at Helene Clarkson
    - Koren Reversible Mesh Dresses at Diane Von Furstenberg
    - black/black check Reversible Satin Midi Skirt at Vetta (but in a more travel-friendly fabric)
    To anyone who actually read this far, Happy Travels! ; - D

    Big tip for jewellery, buy a small tackle box with seperate compartments and you can seperate and organise your jewellery into each compartment. It stores heaps of jewellery and protects them from being tangled or damaged when chucked in a bag and you can get really compact and waterproof/resistant ones. Plus I found that they are smaller and hold more than other travel jewellery holders

    Easy tip to keep jewelry whilst traveling is to use a straw insert chain of necklace in the straw so its locked down and not tangled...easy..

  • @lelandunruh7896
    @lelandunruh7896 6 років тому

    The biggest thing I would add is that backpack or rucksack-style bags offer far more utility than rolling bags or duffel bags. They aren't as easy to use when in airports or rail stations, but make life so much easier for transiting in general. Also, if you ever do jump-on-jump-off train or bus trips in places which don't have left luggage services (which is surprisingly common), it makes life so much easier.
    Also, if you go to church or other places where you want to dress nicely whilst travelling, key everything to one color palette and bring a suit which can be worked-in. I wear a suit jacket often in cool climates, and I swear I get treated better by stewardesses when I wear a suit during flights.

There's a name for the way to fold them but forget the name-japanese or chinese method.

Glad to watch you guys together. I will do rest of the comments in Alison's (MO) 'Endless Adventure', since I gotta watch ESTONIAN FOOD. CHEERS!!!!

    Take the lining out of the humidor and put the notebooks and fountain pens/ink in it! Ta da...you've at least saved a tiny bit of a room and still able to carry around your creature comforts.

    Micellar Water is a game-changer. The only makeup remover that I am not allergic to. Also the ginger people candies are amazing. They are so tasty but also help if you have to take certain medications, you get motion sick or if you have to wake up early and you get stomach aches from that. Also works for heartburn. I never leave my house without them.

    • @bellaluce7088

      If you or anyone else are interested in a non-candy ginger option, I've had great success with dried ginger capsules. They are lighter weight for travel, and--most importantly in my case--they don't tempt me to eat my medicine for pleasure before I need it! ; - D Happy Travels!

    Wow ! I'm definitely taking notes from this for my first Round the World trip. Only 23 days until I leave to visit 9 countries for 44 days. Plus it'll be my first global circumnavigation. Can't wait and glad I learnt some stuff from the best of the best 👍😉

    It's so funny... a few months ago (March of Covid Time), I began living vicariously through UA-cam and found this video, and I stopped watching halfway through... I didn't know these people, I didn't travel around the world, it didn't seem relevant. Now it's August, I'm subscribed to 2/3 of these peoples' channels, and I love them! So I came back to watch the rest of the video! Life is weird.

    Yes to the ginger candy! We buy the ginger people and it works wonders! Also micellar water is amazing. It’s fabulous to get sunscreen and bug spray off the skin! It’s like toner and makeup remover in one.

    • @bellaluce7088
      @bellaluce7088 Рік тому

      Excited to try micellar water now! I can't resist eating ginger candy for fun, so a good (and lighter weight) alternative is dried ginger in capsules. It works great despite not being a tasty treat. ; - D

    Btw for the shower cap/shoe hack, you can also use grocery bags or any small plastic bag you have on hand.

    if its over the counter medicine, you dont need to carry it in the actual bottle. If its prescription, please carry the label that comes on the bottle with you as long as you carry that prescription. Put the label that comes on the bottle in with your important documentation like birth certificate and passport and social security card information. A pencil box, etc. can work for that.
    Thats my only solution to your daily/weekly pill carrier.

    I love micellar also, but I found if you buy micellar wipes instead of a bottle, you can cleanse and remove makeup, then I rinse the wipe with water and wipe again to remove any residue, then mosturise.

    Suggestion for all of you, the BEST gadget I've found for travel is my Mophie case for my phone. They make them for iPhone and Samsung and they give you more than twice the battery life before recharging. Best thing is, no cord and battery attached since it's all in one unit. It does make your phone a bit longer - about 3/4", but it's totally worth it.

    The essential item that I carry with me that I use every single day is a 9 foot extension cord. You never know where in an Airbnb/Hotels plugs will be located and I like to be able to use my laptop computer in bed to surf the web or watch UA-cam & Netflix. A 9 foot extension cord insures that I will be able to be plugged in.

    Micellar water rage is due to Bioderma, from France. I have tried several other brands, Lancome, Garnier, etc and none of them works as well as Bioderma. Also, you are supposed to wipe your face with water afterward. I order mine from Alcone and it is cheap and the best.
