Traveling is an adventure filled with new experiences and memories waiting to be made. But we know the journey itself can sometimes be a bit of a challenge. From long flights to unfamiliar destinations, the right gear can make all the difference in ensuring your travels are smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable. Here are essential gadgets that we always travel with.
1.Soundcore Z-20 Anker Noise-Canceling Headphones Our families live for a great headphone when we travel. Imagine finally settling into your seat on a long flight, only to be surrounded by the engine's hum, crying babies, and chattering passengers. Noise-canceling headphones are a game-changer for our crew. We dive right into movies, music, and quiet sleep. And, since we have teenagers in our lives - everyone gets their own color, too!
2. Anker Power Bank High-Speed Portable Charger
Our crew has three boys and at least three chargers per person when we travel. Phones, iPads, and headphones need to be powered up. Nothing dampens the travel experience like a dead battery, especially when you need it for directions, booking confirmations, or capturing those perfect travel moments. A portable charger, or power bank, ensures your devices are always ready. Look for one with multiple USB ports and enough capacity to charge your smartphone multiple times, like the Anker PowerCore series.
3. TRTL Neck Pillow
This travel pillow has been a game-changer for keeping my head upright while snoozing. It has a scarf-like design that wraps around your neck and a cozy shoulder support. It is compact and lightweight, which makes it easy to put in your carry-on or small bag. The fabric is soft fleece and it's machine washable! Snooze comfortably with no more head bobbing (although drooling may still happen)!
4. AirFly Pro2 Wireless Adaptor
These are a must whenever we travel (especially on long-haul flights). This adaptor transforms any headphone jack into a Bluetooth 5.3 transmitter or receiver. Stream audio from airplane screens, gym TVs, or gaming consoles to your AirPods, Bose, Sony or other wireless headphones. There is over 25 hours of battery life too!
5. Charging Station for 3 Apple Devices
Since we all have multiple devices, everyone in our crew has their own charging station. It’s portable, foldable, small, uses only one cord, and has all you need for three devices simultaneously. And...there are multiple colors!
6. TESSAN Universal Travel Adapter
Traveling internationally often means dealing with different types of power outlets. This is an essential tool for us! This universal adaptor has four plugs (C, G, I, and A) covering 150 countries. It also has 3 USB-C and 2 USB-A ports for charging electronics. It is compact, lightweight, and easy to throw in your bag!
7. Kooder Shoe Dryers
Traveling with teen boys always brings excitement and STINKY SHOES! Our shoes tended to be damp after a day of hiking, climbing, repelling, or rafting. These are life savers. They dry shoes quickly, emit heat around the device through air holes, and have over-heating preventative controls.
Enjoy the recos. Travel well friends!
