[@janetgreenler7602]

I love that see through bag to keep all the little stuff, do you know where you bought it? Very interesting travel info, thanks

[@Prev_C]

My son has a Level 8 bag. Very nice

[@sueschoers4974]

When I return from a trip I immediately restock my travel toiletries bag and keep it ready to go. Very handy for impromptu overnight stays or emergency hospital stays.

[@kimberlyhageman9173]

I try to use up the small shampoo, conditioner, etc when u return from my trip, as some items have a expiration dates. Look on the back of toiletries and make up, you'll find a bottle with a number which indicates when you should use up the product by. When the travel items are empty I put them back in my trip items, then I can refill them prior to traveling.

[@RobinLNJ]

I do a hybrid thing…. I leave many things in the bag refilled….but Because I tend to try to use the toothpaste or contact solution to the end before they go bad, or I do wash and dry the travel sized containers sometimes, I put an index card in my toiletry bag and I jot down on it what I removed from the set that needs to be replaced. That way it’s easy to have a quick checklist of what is needed to complete the set in the bag when I start packing for my next trip.

[@jackiedent3923]

Instead of a blanket I bring an oversized scarf. Works on the plane as a blanket but can also use during the trip as a scarf or bathing suit cover up.

[@susanbodlak6769]

Yep, that's a Sarah Murdoch tip.

[@maobfh]

I do the same thing!

[@gerifarrell2585]

That’s a great idea, thx for sharing!!

[@aoefeable]

I bring a lightweight Turkish towel and use it as a blanket on the plane and as a beach towel. 😊

[@brenda5511]

I find a large two gallon ziplock bag and cut up laundry soap sheets take up next to no room in my bag and are useful for washing clothes, especially in Europe, where the sinks can be really tiny. I also got rid of my folding water bottle and replaced it with a smaller water bottle that I can use for water/coffee/tea. It has a handle that I can clip into the water bottle sleeve on my backpack, which keeps it super secure. And Trader Joe’s sells silicone food baggies - three assorted sized for about $10. The zip closure is a lot smoother than others I’ve found. I put all of my travel essentials I’ll need for the flight in it - headphones, chapstick, lotion, earplugs, charging cables, hand sanitizer, wipes, etc. I keep it next to my hip during my flight, readily accessible, although you can put it into the seat back pocket. No more leaning over, digging through my backpack trying to find something. It’s the first thing I pull out (along with my iPad) Best change to my flying routine I’ve made.

[@GenxGypsy1968]

Great suggestions 😊

[@0mfgeeze]

I would never put anything in that seat back pocket! I was on a flight and saw someone put their childs dirty diaper in there!

[@tmkrueger]

I had a travel pillow that I never used, but since it had a removable center I''m going to fill it with extra clothes to take with me.

[@loricanner7981]

I packed a small puffer coat in mine. Worked like a charm!

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

Now that is a great idea

[@kathiepearson]

I did the same!

[@tmkrueger]

It's such a great hack @@kathiepearson

[@tmkrueger]

@@kathrynm6426 I also have one of those for myself. I’ll let my husband use the other one 😊

[@brendakrause5639]

Someplaces sell yoga gloves and socks. There is a rubber type bottom to prevent slipping . Easy and minimal to carry.

[@vickya8653]

I take a few metal coat hangers (from the dry cleaners) when I travel. Great if not enough hangers in the room. Also use to hang wet clothes in the bathroom if I’ve washed some things. Also bring a few clothes pegs to hang small items on the coat hanger. Being flexible can turn the hook to fit anywhere. Then just leave behind when coming home.

[@janeynget3059]

I thought I am the only one that brings a couple of cloth hangers when I travel. I use it to hang dry my clothes as well. 😊

[@GracieSwayze]

I do the same!​@@janeynget3059

[@belindamohar]

I pack differently if I’m traveling by car vs flying

[@GenxGypsy1968]

Oh definitely!! Me too 😊

[@SherylHastings]

Same here. When I fly I usually fly alone or with my sister. I just pack a backpack. When I'm with my husband, we always drive because we like to do road trips, so we tend to pack more.

[@Randilynn66]

Your wash bag could also be used as a dry bag if you take water excursions. We take snorkel trips all the time and take it out on the boat to keep our towel and phone and other belongings dry.

[@sommerblume11]

Vice versa will work too. You can use the dry bag she uses for her adventures as a bag for washing clothes 😉😀

[@NoZenith]

😮​@@sommerblume11

[@peggywoods4327]

​@@sommerblume11the difference is the built-in washboard of the Scrubba. I keep mine because it takes up little space and I also use it aa a dirty laundry bag. As I camp during my European trips, it is always used for doing laundry. Plus I share it with other folks.

[@AmazingRebel23]

@@peggywoods4327Aw man that’s cool, I have looked all over my town for a washboard

[@truepeacenik]

@@sommerblume11 and it will weigh less.

[@brendakrause5639]

I use alot of freezer ziplock bags. Can see what is inside and you can tuck in any open space in suitcase.

[@catherinedawn2277]

One thing I always have in my suitcase is slim slippers for hotel. They Fit near where handle slides inside suitcase inside liner.

[@OkieTLB]

Same! Mine stay in my primary bag all the time. So nice to be able to slip off my shoes at the door and step into my fuzzy little slippers whenever I’m traveling for fun, but especially when I’m visiting elderly family out of state.

[@trishgrant2715]

I found a pair of sock style “reef shoes” which have a very thin vinyl sole and stretchy sock part. They’re not great reef shoes but great as travel slippers because they’re completely flat, machine washable and dry easily.

[@kat5000]

The silicone brush carrier could probably house a thin resistance band, keep it from unravelling. Would be smaller than the foldable mat, but still allow for some exercises.

[@heidieho4470]

I liked the 2 cooler bag idea for hot and cold stuff. And you can use them to protect souvenirs too coming home.

[@kj7045]

I keep all of my travel items inside my luggage. This video has inspired me to reorganize my travel items. I think I’m going to reorganize and have 1 set for traveling by plane and a second set for cruises. I live near Galveston so can just drive to the Cruise ship. There are certain things you need on a cruise where as traveling on a plane I usually limit what I bring since I only do carryon and no check bags.

[@kendraoconnell4857]

Thanks for the thorough video - I am just getting ready to do a spring clean and it's nice to hear someone else verbalize their thought process.

[@PaulaFlatt-vt1pz]

Thank you for this video! There are some things I was thinking about buying but now I won’t waste my money. Love your videos.

[@FLPeach00]

You’ve inspired me to sort thru my stuff and get a little more organized. Thank you!

[@PraveenSrJ01]

Same here

[@Mia_Louiise]

I have a travel clothes capsule & travel toiletries. When I get back from holidays I wash everything & repack my carry on ready for nest trip 👍

[@pamsheets2939]

You could use the brush holder for pens/pencils or charging cables too 😁

[@melanies.6139]

Great video. 😊 I just did this myself a few weeks ago. I have a bunch of travel stuff to donate now, plus my keepers are much better organized. I even found a few items I’d been looking for as a bonus. 👍

[@bettinanadler9416]

I have one of the silicone makeup-brush holders. I put my travel toothbrush and toothpaste in it.

[@GenxGypsy1968]

Great idea! 😊

[@HollyBird29]

Yes, I thought of toothpaste and toothbrush. I think you can also use it for eye glasses.

[@OkieTLB]

And floss 😉

[@mr.balloffur]

The TSA is getting less picky about the size of the 3-2-1 bag as long as it's roughly that size and it's clear, that'll let it go through.

[@shinomiya89]

That Make Up bag which you don't know if you will use, the new one, is also perfect for keeping things like cables, batteries and other electronic equipments. Or it could also be used for things like medicine, band-aid, and so on :)

[@alisong2328]

OMG- I was just looking at my huge storage bins filled with travel stuff! I found I have lots of doubles - 2 folding mirrors, 2 clotheslines, 2 travel pillows, - and don't get me started on my makeup! I need to know what I have and where I have stored it. Maybe making a list on my phone might help, as well as photos of my travel gear. Thanks for your videos!

[@lisawilson9612]

I have my travel gear in plastic tubs just like you! I need to scale them back though. Great motivation to go through my items!!

[@kathygann7632]

Of course, who could travel without you?!

[@brendakrause5639]

Use the narrow silicon brush holder as a pencil holder. May be able to fit miniture stapler, paper clips, elastic,etc. For office on the go.

[@Thejazzerc]

If I am on a long flight (5+ hours), I will travel with my Cabeau travel pillow. I swear by this pillow because it keeps my head from falling forward - I love it! I have had the TRTL for years and sold it. I found it too hot and stiff.

[@breadroomghost8764]

I love my Cabeau but hate to carry it because even squished down into its case it’s huge

[@debratakagawa4764]

In your travel closet you might like to try looping the handle of a bag on a hanger then hang it rather than setting it on the floor. It saves floor space for heavy items.

[@jaimetarne9436]

One day i went through all my small items ans toiletries that i had collected. Then i made individual ziploc bags filled with toothpaste, travel tooth brushes, soaps etc etc and handed them out to homeless in my area. They were very well received. Homeless can utilize backpacks and other items to hold their small stuff. Consider giving to homeless or homeless shelters.

[@traceyrusthoven2097]

I have the silicone brush holder and I love it and use it because I do carry a lot of make up. But I also like to journal when I travel so you could use that for pens/pencils, or first aide type things, tweezers, bandaids, etc…..You could even just use it in your house for a pencil case.

[@mikam8801]

I despise those hard-sided suitcases that split down the middle, like that blue one. They don’t prop open on luggage stands; you have to lay them fully out on the bed.

[@eds.4815]

Same!

[@Sakura_Blossoms]

Interesting. I might have a different sized one but mine propped open just fine on a luggage stand. Granted it was a carryon size.

[@mikam8801]

@@Sakura_Blossoms Half of your items are vertical, falling/sliding down then. Using a regular suitcase, everything is folded in the box, and you have the upright pocket leaning against the wall for undies, etc.. In fact, another thing I look for is that interior pocket with the zip should go across the top when propped opened.

[@OkieTLB]

Thank you! So happy others agree!

[@trishgrant2715]

Love mine. But I use packing cubes and organise each side so that the things I’m going to unpack and leave unpacked are in one side and the other has the things I’ll access almost daily. If I’m staying a long time in a hotel or air B&B I can unpack almost fully. The hard case gives me extra reassurance that anything delicate inside is protected and it’s less likely to get the contents wet if exposed to weather. I’ve had both over the years but have settled on the hard case with packing cubes.

[@maryd253]

Periodically I go through my stuff. Nice to know I’m not the only one not liking what I thought I would.

[@MAB_Canada]

I don’t use a lot of makeup either. I decided not to be limited by what the manufacturer called the packing cube and use the “makeup” cube as an ad hoc medical kit, with bandaids, polysporin, pain killers, cold meds, etc

[@user-gz5mx2nd5p]

I had severe neck pain before a trip and had to use a soft neck brace when going on a long trip. Turned out it was the best neck pillow and I slept so well as it kept my head in place so now it goes everywhere with me.

[@christineshields1714]

You've inspired me to go through our travel gear, organize, and purge what we don't use.

[@mathildebjrnebo7503]

Thank you for a lovely video 😊 The silicon makeupbrush-case is perfekt for sunglssses or reading glasses ♥️

[@ang8564]

I have an inflatable neck pillow, once deflated it takes up no space at all. An old neck injury makes it necessary, if you spot something like that it can be so useful.

[@RBXChas]

I bought the Scrubba bag for a cruise (with kids) in 2022. I bought it direct from Scrubba, which is an Australian company, and I live in the US, so I paid more than Amazon sold it for and had to wait a good while for it to arrive. (I did not want to buy from Amazon because people said they'd received fakes, and it was not a cheap item.) We ended up getting a free bag of laundry halfway through the cruise, so everything got laundered anyway, and if it were truly that critical that something be washed, I would have figured out a way to wash it or pay for it to be laundered for a few bucks. I always pack Shout wipes, so any stains can at least be treated, if nothing else, before laundering at home. Therefore, we never used our Scrubba bag. We don't camp, so I'm tempted to sell it for half the cost of a new one, and that way I recover some funds while someone else gets a brand new one at a good discount.

[@dramallama8943]

the scrubba bag works also as a dry bag, in case you prefer to keep it and use it

[@jacquecornett]

I so needed this video! Thanks for the motivation to organize my travel items

[@emilynordt153]

I use my flat collapsible water bottle as a back up when hiking with a water filter.

[@GenxGypsy1968]

I've done that too, but this particular one is very sharp on the edges and with dryer hands it has cut me a few times. I usually have a camelbak (bladder) when hiking and now I just bring my other collapsible water bottle 😊

[@SilviaRodríguez-z8v]

For that silicone bag you can use for your hair roller or straightener

[@emlin5k71]

I bought a bunch of hooks to store my backpacks on my hanging rail. One side is a straight hook and the other is a 90 degree hook to hold the bag. Perfect when you have short hanging space free.

[@GenxGypsy1968]

Great idea!

[@DebDebbiesWorld]

I have a very VERY similar jewelry case (maybe an updated version- is it bagsmarts?) and LOVE it - after trying SO MANY! Its compact, travels flat, holds the right amount, doesnt tangle my chains, its GREAT! But a perfect example of what one person doesnt like/use - is perfect for another!

[@ellenelliott2865]

Just a thought about your new tripp travel makeup case, because its a see through bag, you can use it to put your electronics, your scale, your adapter, also cords to keep things organized.

[@ruthlyons1466]

I love my Scrubba! I used it on a trip to the Uk and Scotland for more than three weeks, and then the UK and Croatia for three weeks. Sinks are often tiny, or don't have drain plugs, or things are sometimes not that clean in old funky hotels and B&Bs. Having a quick and easy way to do laundry frees you from wandering around trying to find a place to do laundry - which was so problematic for two weeks in Iceland we gave up looking, and didn't find one until the end of our trip - and who wants to spend time in a laundromat while on vacation? Or having to rent aa specific Air BnB just because it has a washer and hopefully a dryer? I use liquid SOAK, which needs no rinsing, thus saving on water and time. We also wear merino wool socks and t-shirts, or items that wash and dry quickly, so we can pack a 30 litre backpack or carry on suitcase for three + weeks and not worry about not having enough clothes.

[@kathygann7632]

The scrubba wash bag looks like it would be great for packing wet stuff on the return trip.

[@veritasca24]

Thanks for the video; it was very helpful. I am also undecided on the Turtl neck support. I like everything to be visible, so I choose clear storage bags, etc. You are very organized. You live in a wonderful place by the beach-wow!

[@ginakutsch1001]

I love my plane flap thing - only about an hour 2x per month and catch up on crime dramas on the plane. I do agree that pillows are a pain in the neck (literally)!

[@Beanie7371]

I use my scrubba wash bag on every trip. I do a cycling holiday every second year and we camp along the journey. It also doubles as a dry bag so 2 in one. I used it to float down the Rhine last year. Perfect for minimalist travel when you don’t always have access to a sink or bathtub.😊

[@debbieelms-watkiss4742]

I have used the small scrubber for myself and get my husband to so his own holiday washing and he has the large one. Had both for years. Also i have the cabeau neck pillow the connects to the back of the plane seat via velcro but i have taken the insert out as it feels like a neck brace. I fill the empty cabeau pillow with my long down jacket and a silk travel wrap and travel towel saving more than 430gms in my caryon and its so soft to sleep with

I bought the scrubba bag on my sisters insistence. I took it to Ireland and I did use it. I also bought those foldable hangers and I love them too. I find the scrubba folds down pretty small and I put the hangers and laundry sheets with it so I’m keeping mine. Also could you not use it as a dry bag? It looks similar to the blue one.

[@leannbl9701]

I use the Vapur water bottle exclusively. It stands up just fine, folds up super tiny, weighs very little. Absolutely the best product for all my travels to Europe.

[@tigriss007]

The silicone makeup brush holder is great for an electric toothbrush or just a toothbrush and small toothpaste. There are lots of ways of using the brush holder.

[@jenniferbalbo3744]

I also bought that green Scrubba Bag so I could do laundry & hang it to dry from a dryer line that I also bought. Needless to say, both just took up space in my bag & were fairly useless when I attempted to wash my clothes when I was in Switzerland. I agree that it is just way easier to wash directly in the tub or the sink for smaller items.

[@Reed-2big]

I bought a collapsible bucket for a very long cruise, the plan was to wash things that wouldn’t fit in a sink! It turned out to be quite useful …. When I needed to soak my foot in salt water due to an open wound! As for clothes? Not yet.

[@breadroomghost8764]

We hauled a Scrubba to Antarctica and it was so much harder to use than just using a sink, no matter how small

I would have loved to shop for travel items at the place you donated to.

I ordered that flex flap thing, got it, saw that it’s shouldn’t be as heavy as it is, and returned it. I have something else to use that’s lighter. And since I already had it, no extra money spent.

I love my flex flap! I use it almost every flight!

That blanket is huge. I bring a large scarf as it’s far more versatile.

Fascinating, you kept me mesmerised. It’s 2 months till my Poland trip but you make me want to pack now. 🇦🇺

How was Poland?

What size is your packable backpack? I love that you give us link, unfortunately there are size options and I have no clue what size you use and if it works better than another size option. Thanks so much!!!

That is a great question! I had to go measure mine because I don't think I even realized they came in other sizes 😂. It is a 16L, and I've never needed more room for what I use it for.
