Carry-On Suitcase

LEVEL8

Sometimes, you just need more than a backpack for your trip! This carry-on is super sleek and sturdy — so not only will you look good rolling it through the airport, but you'll know your belongings will always be protected with its hard-shell aluminum frame.

Travel Adapter

There’s nothing worse than arriving in a new country only to discover your plugs don’t fit. That’s why we always travel with this universal adapter — it covers nearly every country and keeps our devices charged no matter where we land.

This portable charger is a lifesaver on the road—its large capacity means we can charge our phones multiple times without scrambling for an outlet. It’s compact, powerful, and lets us charge two devices at once, so we’re always ready for whatever the travel day throws at us.

Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle with Straw

Owala

We love this water bottle both at home and on the road. We refill it at the airport to avoid overpriced bottled water, and it keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours.

28L Travel Backpack

Thule

The Thule Aion backpack is my go-to option when I don't plan on traveling with a carry-on suitcase. It's expandable to 32L, which offers 15% more packable space (yay!), and its main divider feature allows you to unzip it fully just like a suitcase — perfect for easy packing.

24L Travel Backpack

Cotopaxi

This Cotopaxi has literally been my ride or die luggage for the past fews years. It's super durable, it feels light even when fully packed and it still counts as a "personal item" on budget airlines, which is not the case for all Cotopaxi backpacks. If you're looking for a new backpack for travel (or just for life), this is a great option!

Noise-Cancelling Headphones

Bose

There's no better feeling than sinking into your seat, putting on your headphones, and letting the rumble of the jet drift away. If you don't have a pair of noise-cancelling headphones yet, these ones are super effective and extremely comfortable — even for long-haul flights.
