Hi, Laurie! I second the clothing detergent sheet! No liquid, no waste, no mess!🌻

[@carefulshopper4239]

Dear Laurie - your travel tips have been a wonderful help to me! I watch as many as possible and always learn something new. Here are some in return from me. We have gone twice a year to Lake Como and LOVE it, except in the summer (we only went once then and it was hot and crowded with European families). Spring and fall (shoulder seasons) are our favorites. In many areas the Italians are elegantly dressed. My favorite travel pants are Talbots everyday stretch straight leg. A bit heavier than many, but can be dressed up or down and the soft knit holds its shape even on a long flight.. Only 3 colors, but a wide size range. On Cloud 5 are my best walking shoes, as you have pointed out they have waterproof ones in a few colors. (Ecco doesn’t fit me as well.). I use the little gemice no leak containers based on your recommendation and love them! Never a leak and I packed 10 days worth in them. Since we go often I bought a curling iron and heating pad with Euro plugs - not so costly when you compare converters, adapters, etc. The hotel concierge helped us locate the heating pad, and the curling iron was at a hardware store in the window! Be sure to take the Ferries that go around the lake - it’s fun, and each little town has a bit different character. The ferries are cheap enough that working people take them daily to and from their workplaces. Happy Travels!

I have been in several bathrooms in Europe over the years with no toilet paper (once in Florence where street people had stolen all the rolls and were selling it back outside the entrance), so I always carry a small pack of tissues for these possibilities. And have had to use them! Of course often in the US, too, but this video is international-related.

[@lia4057]

I love the jacket. It would be so handy to not have to keep up with it when I am not wearing it. For toilet paper, I just take one pocket pack of tissues in my bag. If I’ve depleted those on the trip, I’ll just use what’s in my hotel room and put a day's worth of toilet paper in a baggie.

[@connych4796]

Swiss here! While we’re not part of the European Union, we’re definitely part of the continent of Europe, especially as we’re surrounded by other countries and don’t have access to the coast😁 08:20 While we use a 3 pin socket. the 2-pin you showed at 07:20 will work here. Remember that the United Kingdom and Ireland have a completely different socket so remember to bring the correct adapter there too. If you’re visiting there plus mainland Europe, you can get adapters with multiple different types of plug.

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Ha! Thanks so much! I need to cut that part out.

[@pamv4290]

Your suggestions of the backpack strap Bernardo jacket, Ecco water resistant shoes, and Nordstrom merino wool and cashmere sweaters were spot on for my trip to London and Paris. I just returned and thought about you every day of my trip! Thank you so much!

[@pjhosang2977]

Laundry detergent sheets. I’ve used them in Europe as well as in Hawaii where I was washing things out daily. They work great and don’t have to worry about liquid restrictions.

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

I just used one yesterday.

[@mamatobz2890]

Love that puffer jacket. Wish it folded up within itself but I bet I could have a compression bag in the pocket 🤔❤

[@tiggeez]

We just took a river cruise that started in Lake Cómo and ended in Amsterdam. Awesome!!

[@belindamohar]

Laurie,could you do a test on the phone straps for preventing your phone from being snatched out of your hands while taking pictures. This happened to us this summer in London ( we still have our phone) just a few bruises and scratches but we won 🙌🏻 I saw a lot of people using them.

[@chrystaltuckness5298]

Lake Como! ❤ Our family (3 teens) rented Casa Margherita 2 through Home Away on the eastern edge of town from a lovely couple! Ten years later, our daughter and her friends rented the same apartment.

[@robinps52]

Laurie, thanks for another great tips video! I just wish I’d known about those water-resistant pants before my trip to Portugal last year & Paris last week! Now I know October in Western Europe = RAIN (even those huge red Viking umbrellas weren’t enough 😂). Next year, I’ll have those trousers! And I love that Mophie triple charger from the Apple Store! I’ve had mine for 3 yrs. & it hasn’t let me down. Have a wonderful week!

[@debk9399]

I appreciate your advice and product suggestions. We are planning a big vacation next year, and your suggestions have me thinking and rethinking what I should pack. So Thanks!

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Glad it was helpful! And have such a great trip. If you forget something, you can just get it there or do without.

[@Scarrred]

After visiting Japan what I can tell about packing for the travel is that literally you need "nothing" in advance, just take yourself to the plane 🙂

[@wandrousvindella716]

Still stalking for the backpack Bernado jacket & getting excited to plan next years trips. So many awesome tips, as usual ~ Hello Aullie and Happy Sunday Laurie.

[@goodtreegoodfruitartco]

Happy Sunday and THANK YOU as always❤

[@LSTEdD1]

Thank you! I’m off to France for a painting retreat in June!

[@nancymitchell8976]

Hey Laurie! Love your channel. We’ve been to Lake Como area twice- Belliago and Ravenna. You will love it!!!

[@deborahconkle6822]

❤ Happy Sunday Laurie!

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Same to you!

[@ginaandrews1860]

Great ideas!!! I live not far from Lake Garda. A magnificent area. Some of my favorite places around the lake to go are Sirmione, Malcesine, Lazise. You can also take a boat from those places to go to the other side of the lake. Have fun!!

[@thatgirlPAIGE94]

Happy Sunday 🫶🏾🫶🏾

[@ritahuffstetler8947]

Thank you for mentioning CPAPs!

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Sure thing!

[@karenbortolin7611]

You are such a font of information, which I have used on our trips. Lake Garda is wonderful. The scenery is amazing, not so crowded. If you have not been to Verona, which is nearby, please visit. I can give you restaurant recommendations for Verona if you want.

[@jenocean824]

I have those pants in tall in 3 colors, they are the BEST travel and hiking pants! Most comfortable pants I've ever owned and dry super fast. I just ordered the black backpack-strap jacket. It is on save for $99.00 and you can get a 15% discount off that right now.

[@lesanelms7939]

My husband and I take my older sister with us everywhere. (We are all retired) We share a room where possible and find that there is never enough room for all the little travel bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body soap in the shower area. So this trip I am taking a mesh shower bag that hangs from the shower curtain hooks. I have suction cup hooks for hanging it on the shower wall. Hoping this takes care of the shower chaos as there are 9 pockets in it. Amazon has just about everything you could possibly want, don't they?

[@nancysteinert8527]

I don’t see where you talk about what kind of water resistant pants you’re wearing. Please tell me what they are and where to get them.

[@robinps52]

It’s on her list in the Comments as the separate item for “International Travel Outfits” w/a link to Amazon.

[@ladyfreddie7513]

The Tide pen always dries out before it’s done. I buy Tide wipes individually packaged.

[@betsydoc3628]

My two tips. Don’t wear cinchable pants through security. Mine kept flagging a pat-down at the ankle. I removed the grommet and pull-tab, and no more problem. 2. Bring more than one type of usb cords for rental cars. I only use usb for my phone, but my foreign rental car in the US only had usb-c ports.

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

I agree with the usb cord; if you forget it, at least you have the portable charger.

[@wendyejohnson7517]

Those pants look like Baleaf ones that I’m currently wearing in the Channel Islands.

[@knk9657]

On a side note, your hair highlites always look amazing! What do you ask for when you go to get your hair done? They never do mine light enough.

[@Top1travel]

Good

[@angelaturner8722]

Hi Laurie, I always thought that I could only take 3 or 4 liquid containers in my little liquids bag. I see that you have several small containers in that liquids bag. Thank you for teaching me that. Also, I use only sensitive toothpaste, wonder if the toothpaste tablets come in sensitive. My teeth hurt like crazy if not using sensitive toothpaste...I usually have it on my carry on because I fear my luggage can get lost and I won't have my essential toothpaste.

[@cyndimccurdy9365]

Which of the jackets you listed have the interior straps? Or do they all?

[@CruisingEngineer]

We're cruising around Italy and Greece next year. I love your travel ideas and experiences. Question: Is there an equivalent to Go Girl that's maybe more packaged for Oh Boy? (Wife of a DFW pilot)

[@kenbrown2808]

I still take a dedicated camera on trips, because it's so much easier to pull the memory card and transfer my photos than it is to remember the process to do a dump from my phone to my computer. also, I think my camera battery goes something like 4 days between charges.

[@brendaharnum]

You’re very informative, love your videos….. I can’t find the link for those pants. Watching from Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada

[@LiseShehan]

Those little containers that you use for decanting do leak. I have used them twice, and twice they leaked. Even after I was so careful not to get shampoo or conditioner on the seal area, no luck. Any suggestions?

[@suelelievre5513]

What brand of bandaid were those white waterproof ones?

Talking about going to Europe - do you know when the ETIAS website and registering will take effect. It’s unclear.

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

It has been delayed another year.

[@fionafrazer8820]

For our recent trip to London, we took two adapters - didn't need to use either one, as the hotel room was equipped (to charge two iPhones, two iPads, 2 sets of ear buds. I would suggest something I think you mentioned a while back - and I thought was a great idea, but neglected to do, - was to take some command strip hooks. Our bathroom had only one hook, and no towel rail, so these would have been ideal. We opted for the green service (which meant we didn't get room cleaning/linen service every day) and the towels remained wet without anywhere to hang them.

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Thanks; we have needed them the 3 Europe trips this year and last Christmas. The only drawback of the hooks is sometimes they can take the paint off.

[@AnnikenAllis]

Switzerland not part of Europe? I'm sure that'll be a surprise to the Swiss. 😂 Europe & the EU (European Union) are two different things. Switzerland is definitely in Europe but not in the EU. 😊

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Thanks for always correcting my EU Europe tips. So confusing.
