Things we NEVER travel with - (Do this instead)

[@reluctantlawyer517]

Good morning, I totally agree with you about travel books. One thing I have done for a long time is to begin reading an online local paper for the place that we are going starting a few weeks before we leave. This gives me the most up to date information about potential issue (strikes, demonstrations, etc) as well as restaurant recommendations.

[@2GoRoam]

Hey RL! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment! That is actually an even better idea, we will do the same now too. Funny, these days we don't think about newspapers as being a source for information... odd. We need to up our game in 2GoRoam towers :-) Best regards, Neil & Sarah

@@2GoRoam I just watched a live update with @GoWithLess. You two should consider a LIVE once a month to cut down on editing time. What normally took them 20 hours was condensed to a little more than 6. I would think you could do a live and have no editing. I know it's a labor of love to create these videos and I appreciate the inspirational and humorous info you share weekly.

[@DD2015_FreshStart]

OMG! I was loading my locker at the gym ready to workout, but I stopped, sat down, and started watching your video! I appreciate hearing the mistakes and lessons you've learned. We have lived the life of pre-travel and buying all the cool must haves via Amazon preparing for the 50 million what ifs. Typically, we'd pack 2 small backpacks, a carry-on each, and check in 1 or 2 larger bags. It was ridiculous! Since we want to travel and eventually live abroad, we knew we had to change. Recently, we planned a hiking trip with 3 backpacks (2 smaller for electronics & toiletries and 1 large one to hold both of our clothes & shoes). Basically, living out of ... one ...ONE! backpack. We went from packing everything including the kitchen sink to packing with intention and reality in mind. We survived and realized we allowed our STUFF to cloud our purpose. We want to live a simple, authentic life. We finally convinced ourselves to accept life with only carry-on and get rid of the STUFF!! Now, we need to get rid of all that Amazon crap! Thank you for inspiring reality!! Off to work out. Looking forward to your next video!

[@2GoRoam]

Hey DD2015! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment! That is amazing to be honest that you stopped what you were doing to watch our video, that is pretty damn cool! Good work on the Carry on, that reduces cost and stress, nice work! Best regards, Neil & Sarah

@@2GoRoam 👍🤩 In the video, you used the Bearz packable blanket. Naturally, I bought one. My husband and I love picnics and always use a large picnic mat. I wondered what we could bring on our travels. Thank you for the answer! Even though it can be a pain folding them back into the bag, practice makes perfect. I also have packable shopping bags. Both the Bearz blanket and shopping bags can fit into my purse. I appreciate your insight!

Excellent video,full of your personal experiences and advice for us to take in. My wife and I have reduced the content in our travelling suitcases over the years,however,we still find that we have over packed in subsequent trips. There’s always that thought « JUST IN CASE » and most of the time you find that it wasn’t required. Thank you for the wonderful work you do.

Sensible and accurate. I really don't have any social media accounts. A drive to explore is my motivation - not social media likes. I bought some cheap backpack style luggage that has worked great through five countries. I'm not a point where I can travel full time. But I have a plan in place and will get there before I'm too old.

[@2GoRoam]

Hey Rick! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment! YES! How refreshing is that to hear... "Explore is my motivation - not social media likes" Hope you make your plan come through Rick! Best regards, Neil & Sarah

Let me repeat how your videos are so fantastic. There's never any fluff nor regurgitation of information found on other travel KZbinrs videos. You should be proud of your channel model and look forward to your next video and continued success.

Hey Mike! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment! This is pretty cool for you to say and its great that it's appreciated. We decide to only release our content if we have something to say. In fact, we killed a video that we are half way through editing because we felt it just wasn't compelling enough (i.e. too many other videos saying similar stuff). The last thing we want to do is waste the time of the people that freely give their time to watch our videos. Cheers Mike, that was great to read. Best regards, Neil & Sarah

[@gordonhamnett1289]

Hi Sarah and Neil: Hope your have been enjoying your beach vacation this last week! Love the practical guidance on what "essentials" to bring along! Never, in a million years would I have thought of a sink plug and I have done a lot of "business" traveling!! My "clothes packing" rule is simple. Only bring something if I am 110% sure I will wear it and I still get back home with stuff that I have carried needlessly all over the world! And "BINGO" on using on-line info today versus printed material that is always dated. Great stuff! Thanks! Gordon

[@2GoRoam]

Hey Gordon! Really appreciate the comment, vacation was stunning! Like the idea of the 110% but yes... we still end up not wearing stuff, just carrying it around the world for fun lol. Best regards, Neil & Sarah

[@cbenson513]

Solid advice! I travel carry-on only, and will try doing the same when I retire next year to roam in retirement. It comes with challenges, but also means space is a premium for necessities only. Being present in the moment is so important, love that you touched on that! Best to both of you.

Neil, your American accent sounded a bit like someone from the South... on tranquilizers, LOL! I agree, social media is evil. I quit Facebook and Instagram a few months ago. BEST DECISION. I focus on travelling for myself and my KZbin friends and that makes me much happier! The community of friends and fellow creators and subs on KZbin has been the most rewarding thing! Have a great weekend! Dara

Hey Dara! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment as ever.

So we are doubling down on KZbin, that is our home :-) Best regards, Neil & Sarah

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

@@2GoRoam same here! 💕

[@travelrefocused]

You hit the nail on the head so many times with this one. I recall using KZbin and social media to research what we will need for our nomadic lifestyle. Problem is, everyone has different needs and opinions. So you start accumulating all this stuff. Fortunately, before we left I came to the conclusion that it was crazy for us to be carrying around all this stuff. So, half of it was returned to the store. We still left with plenty of things we wouldn't use. I'm still carrying around a water purifier we never used. One area we did really well was our luggage. We love it and it's been so useful. With that said, we are now planning to donate our two laptop bags that we have used as our personal items on flights. In their place, we will be using our daily sling bags that we typically packed away in our checked bags. Speaking of which, talking about things we couldn't do without... Our Lowepro Passport sling bags. These things have proven to be so versatile, practical, and comfortable. We use them on a daily basis. It works as both my camera bag and every day carry bag. I paid around $12 for each of them on eBay. Unfortunately, I think they are no longer being made. I hope they last us a long time. Love these practical conversations. Keep up the good work.

[@2GoRoam]

Hey Skip! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment! Yes I remember being very jealous of your sling bags, still are! But couldn't track them down anywhere... See you soon man! Best regards, Neil & Sarah

[@janellr6321]

We're still 2 years to launch but trying to get our configuration down. After our last 2 week trip to Mexico I'm convinced we can get by with 2 backpacks and either 1 checked or 2 rolling carryon bags. My favorite item that I took was a set of reusable grocery bags. Used them a ton. Plus they fold up tiny and clip to my purse. Was a bit of a throw away item but we loved them and they weigh nothing. As for clothing I realized when we get down to it we don't dress up. We are shorts and tank/tee type people so at most I'll need 1 decent outfit for the occasional nice meal. And shoes.... if they aren't 100% comfortable to walk in then they don't make the cut. Things I invested in after the trip. A portable noise machine to block out all the neighborhood noises and a portable bedside fan which is likely too small but will test and return if it's not moving enough air. Adding sink plug cover to my list. Thanks for the tip.

[@2GoRoam]

Hey Janell! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment as ever. We think you are probably right with the 2 backpacks and one case, we will do the same as we move on for sure. Portable noise machine! What a cool idea! Best regards, Neil & Sarah

Great vlog! Great reminder on where the focus should be when travelling. I was "forced" to take a small travel back pack with a small day pack when we went to costa rica for 3 weeks. We had to take a small plane flight to Drake Bay. Since then, they are the only bags I travel with regardless of time away or destination.

[@lindadorman2869]

Great advice! So many people think they need to "be prepared" for anything. Then they get out there and realize whatever you need (except personal items like medications) is readily available almost anywhere you go. Whatever you take will likely get damaged or lost along the way, so you're going to have to replace it anyway. I do really like that sink cover though...maybe I need one? And a great cliff-hanger at the end - waiting to see what you announce!

I love my fanny pack. You probably use it incorrectly if you don't like it. It should be worn across your chest to protect you from pickpockets, in crowded places you slide it under your armpit and squeeze it gently. Also when wearing a backpack a fanny pack helps to organize small important things in your backpack to avoid fishing for a wallet or a ringing phone when you want to quickly get hold of it.

We’ve been traveling out of a carry on and backpack for a couple of years but we are leaving soon for a year trip with winter coming so we will need to consider a winter coat. My mantra has always been 2 pants, 2 shorts, a dress and 5 shirts can make 21 different outfits so along with a pair of sandals a pair of runners, and under clothes we are set. We use Eagle creek luggage that can be a backpack but we use it as a roller. Quite small and light weight. I always pack a fan, a cloth grocery bag, sanitizer, wipes and masks for travel ( I’m picky on what type of masks to use so we bring them along). We take a empty insulated water bottle that we fill up at the airport and keep with us at all times. Along with some electronics and nuts as snacks that is basically what we pack on any trip.

You could do something really good by not only to stop ordering "stuff" you don't need, (particularly as you have patreons, as you waste money) but please don't order from Amazon, it is not a company to "advertise " and it does nothing for our planet. Gail, Czech Republic.

Hey Gail! Thank you so much for taking the time to drop us a comment! Yes we aren't advertising any company to be honest... the video was about NOT doing what we did. Hope that makes sense. Best regards, Neil & Sarah
