As I’m mentally packing for Create + Cultivate while writing this and packed and flying by the time you’re reading this, I’m having trouble deciding between 2 different lists. 5 Things I Better not leave home without or 5 of the best traveling light tips I’ve found thus far. And being as neither one of these lists are necessarily my Favorites per say, they are timeless tips and tools and quite frankly I’m out of time.
And to make up for what I’m lacking in originality here, I’ll give them to you both and go for quantity if you promise not to complain. Because let’s face it, I have kids, I don’t travel often and when I do, light is not a word I’m familiar with and truth be told we have yet to even travel with the twins because the concept itself is still way to heavy for my husband. Being outnumbered on a plane is not synonymous with vacation and neither is navigating a packed SUV.
As for the 5 Things I Hope I don’t Forget, well, they are exactly that. But, I’d survive. It’s all about perspective and nothing on this list would make or break my C+C experience. I’m going in expecting the best and I have faith that is exactly what I will receive. Although it would be nice to be able to hand out a card or two.
1. My Nivea Berry Lip Swirl, it’s light and sweet and keeps your lips from going dry, especially when you’re doing a lot of talking or flying. I’ll be doing both so, it’s packed!
2. My DIY Business cards, I got em. Took forever but beats having nothing to show or give.
3. Tic Tacs. When do n’t they come in handy?
4. Jelly Belly Jelly Beans. Fun in a bag. I’m a candy craver and Jelly Belly’s always do the trick and who can’t use a little sugar pick me up every once in a (day) while.
5. My clipboard and notebook. I hate trying to write on my lap, so I have a notebook and a clipboard. Maybe a little nerdy but super functional. Also works great for balancing lunch in your lap!
