Planning and Travel Tips

Planning and Travel Tips written in white text over an opaque pink box on top of a photo of a mountain surrounded by forest perfectly reflected in a large blue lake with very still water. It is a very sunny day with clear blue sky overhead.

This section of the blog is where I share all my top travel tips to help you plan the perfect trip! After YEARS of travel – a few of them full-time – I like to think I know a thing or two. So this is a collection of all the posts I wrote that help people plan, pack, and actually travel. 

Category Subsections

To help you make sense of Travel Tips category, I’ve divided it up into subsections. The guide below should help make things a little clearer. 

Reviews – All my review posts, everything from hostels to luxury cruises. There’s a breakdown further down this page to make it all more navigable. 

Packing Tips – All my posts about Packing. Luggage reviews, guides to finding the right backpack, and general tips to make packing easier. 

Travel Gear – I’ve reviewed a lot of travel gear over the years. This section is for my favourite tech, gadgets, and other products that I couldn’t travel without. 

Travel Fashion and Beauty – I’m hardly a fashionista, but on occasion, I do have some handy tips for looking good while you travel. This section includes stuff like how to pack light (and still look halfway decent)!

Travel Tips – All my top travel advice!
