A souvenir duffle is GENIUS! I like your idea of putting dirty clothing there and then putting the valuable souvenirs in the hard shell. Great ideas, as always!

I'm planning a trip for my whole family in November, including my parents and nanna, so I'm sharing all my tips/hacks with them ❤ I better be the favourite child after 😉

[@buildyourmoxie]

You will be THE BEST AND FAVORITE DAUGHTER!!!!!! =D and November will be so nice!!

[@buildyourmoxie]

It will be a little chilly but beautiful!

[@Purplegoldfish]

@@buildyourmoxie I'm hoping we won't have missed the fall colours by then 🤞

[@mtkaren]

So fun! We were in Japan in August and going back in March. It was sooooo awful hot in August so I’m looking forward to the cooler weather. Can’t wait to see your haul! LOVE those duffle bags! Ordering now!

[@buildyourmoxie]

Ooo august is so hot hehe :P. March is going to be AMAZING!!! You will never go back in the summer once you go in march lol. YAY!!! Also, you will love the duffles! They are so light weight and so compact when you squish it down! =D

[@mtkaren]

@ I hope so! I hope it’s not too cold. We live in Montana and always take a trip in February or March and it’s somewhere warm and tropical. I hope we made the right choice. It was so hot in August we didn’t even try the ramen.

[@buildyourmoxie]

@ oh man 😭 that sounds so hot lol. I’m so excited for you to go in March. Early March is sometimes chilly but late March is amazing

[@producktions6180]

I love your Japan vlogs! I went in October 2024, and I used all ur traveling tips to prepare before I went and it went great 😌 hope you had fun!

[@buildyourmoxie]

😍wow October is so beautiful! I hope to go during that month! And thank you so much! You are so sweet! 🥰

[@producktions6180]

@ october was the perfect time! Not too hot or humid but great weather for all day walking! Heres to many more japan trips in future 🥳

[@buildyourmoxie]

That sounds beautiful! 🤩 hehe and yes! Cheers!

[@peachbelis]

Oh thanks for the video! I’m going to travel in november but I get cold very easy haha I would like to try the merino socks. 🫶

[@buildyourmoxie]

Yay! That is going to be so fun! November is a bit chilly so the socks will be helpful! Try to wear a pair of fleece leggings under your pants too. You will do great!

[@fritopie233]

You are sooooo prepared!

[@buildyourmoxie]

Hahaha I can’t get my brain to stop thinking! 😂 but it made for a very relaxing trip though 🥹🥰

Thanks so much Lilly! 🥰 so good to see you again!

[@katarzynajanik5507]

hey, when do you put on your compression socks? before the flight or already on board? Are they any specific tips?

[@buildyourmoxie]

Hello! =D I just put my compression socks on when i start my day in the morning :). If i am flying at night, i will put it on after my shower :). I just treat them like how i would normally wear socks =D. Do the socks before you board for sure though :)

[@katarzynajanik5507]

My buddy!!! Thanks hehe! It’s good to be back! We were dealing with the LA fires the last couple weeks 😭. So that’s why I haven’t posted.

[@YouTuberMe68]

@buildyourmoxie well I'm glad you and Mr Buddy are ok. Praying for y'all

Where did you get your clear suitcase cover from?

[@buildyourmoxie]

@@Sahara333 from beis! They have them in stock occasionally! Mine is 29” luggage cover for the beis 29” suitcase :)

[@Pherzyy]

This video was super helpful! I though Japan didn’t allow for us to take lactaid 😮

[@buildyourmoxie]

@@Pherzyy you can bring 2 month supply or less of lactaid!

[@Pherzyy]

@ awesome, thought I would need to struggle with inflammation 😂. Thank you!

[@buildyourmoxie]

@ hahaha you are good!!!

Everyone should have a favorite daughter like you. Lol!

[@sandiearcher5137]

Did you not have to take the original bottles for all of your supplements? 👀

[@buildyourmoxie]

@@sandiearcher5137 I did not since none looked too drug like lol😅. But I normally suggest to bring labels if it’s medication! 😁

[@jenniferjohnson7584]

What compression socks do you use!??

[@buildyourmoxie]

amzn.to/4h1CXAh I love these ones!! I wear small medium. These are my fav and last years!

[@taffy147]

I plan to leave internationally for the fist time ever in 5 months and have done very little to prepare. All the available flights have layovers and it's stressing me out😭 Is there any way you can do a video guide on layovers? You explain everything the best! (Please and thank you:)

[@TuyetNguyen-ek6vo]

How many pounds do they allow you to bring in your carry on? By the way you pack in your carry on, feel like it weight more than 15 pounds.

[@buildyourmoxie]

Hello! If I do Japan air, they don’t weigh my carry on. But they allow 22 pounds. This carry on was 22 pounds. If I do Singapore air, it’s 15 pounds but they don’t always weigh. So that’s why I keep my carry on cover with me just in case I have to check it in I always do direct flight so I know my bags will arrive when i arrive too :) For a carry on only trip, I skip the counter and just do mobile boarding! So they don’t ever weigh it :)

[@buildyourmoxie]

And then I put all my heavy stuff in my personal item tote :D

[@TuyetNguyen-ek6vo]

Oh, that is good to know. Thank you.

[@marta178]

How water resistent are those Hokas? Never heard about that brand (UK), but I see they sell them here. I love asics, and they seem pretty similar.

[@buildyourmoxie]

I used an umbrella when it rained here in Japan! So my feet stayed dry completely. Plus you are slightly more elevated than normal shoes. 🫡👍

[@buildyourmoxie]

But they were very resistant to snow in Hokkaido!! I walked in slush and my feet stayed dry too!

[@marta178]

Cool, thx as always for your videos! Love your energy! I'll be going to Japan this spring for the first time and I wonder if that brand will work for me. God knows I can't use my ASICS as much as I love here in the UK without getting my feet drenched. :x

[@buildyourmoxie]

@ asics are awesome! I like running in them! Also spring time will be soooo beautiful! It’s the best time to go!

[@TFG0045]

What is your experience with OTC meds like allergy, vitamins, etc? I noticed yours were not in the actual bottles. Everything I’ve read has me nervous about how to travel with these meds. Again OTC not prescription. I leave in a couple months so trying to figure this out. Also I have the same big foldable duffel bag. That will definitely coming with us. Lol

In your toiletries bag you probably use 30% of everything that you bring.

[@buildyourmoxie]

I use all of it minus the stuff that is for emergency emergency such as cold sore stuff, pimple patches, body wipes, bandaids, etc. when I have them I never need them When I don’t have them, I need them :) It’s also for my hubs too 👍
