Scrubba Wash Bag Whether you’re camping or just trying to save some packing space, this portable laundry system is a must-have travel accessory.

Scarf with Zippered Secret Pocket For those who struggle with juggling a phone, boarding pass, and ID card, this scarf offers a simple solution and might make you wonder why you didn’t think of it yourself. 6. Microfiber Towel Plenty of the accommodation places I’ve stayed in don’t provide bathing towels. Specially in Asia. When they did, they charged for them as a first- necessity item they are. Plus, it can double as a little blanket! It is made from Aquitex microfiber, which delivers the efficient moisture transport while providing comfort and durability. 7. Multi USB Charger Who hasn’t faced the true first-world problem of not having enough power outlets to charge all the devices? Some hotel rooms are scarce in outlets and simply can’t deal with all the charging needs of a modern day traveler. A multi- USB hub charger can be the solution, particularly if you’re traveling in a group. As important as the items to bring with you, are the things that can you save a lot of trouble back at home. First of all, don’t forget the members of the family left behind! Pet feeders are great when you’re away for a short period of time. A plant waterer can avoid you getting back home to a dry foliage show. And last but not least, safety. 5 5
