What I always keep on hand .

When traveling I always carry on with me some articles that are very handy and I'll know I will need when I'm in a plane or train. Off course this things vary depending on how long the trip is , for example if I am taking a flight from Colombia to London which is 11 hours long approximately, I will have to take with me more stuff than If I was going to Miami (3hrs) or Bogota (1hour) so here are some of my essentials that I always keep in my carry on bag.

-Headphones: I can't be on a plane /train without listening to music, so this is literally the first thing I put in my bag.

-Moisrurizer: When you are traveling your skin can get very dry so it is important to stay hydrated and take proper care of your skin and lips so I also carry a lip Moisrurizer.

Some of my favorite Moisrurizers: Nivea Creme , The Body shop Coconut body butter ,Palmer's Cocoa butter lip balm , Kielh's skin rescuer .

-Concealer, blush , mascara:

In case I have somewhere to go when I get to my destination or if I just don't want to look tired .

-Notepad : I'm the kind of person that loves to write down my thoughts and draw so I need to have somewhere to write and entertain myself.

-Sunglasses: these are always a must have, not only for when I'm traveling but for everyday. So I keep some in my bag wherever I go.

-Snacks: we all know that in the airport or in the plane there aren't always healthy snack opinions , now a days there are but it is always a good idea to keep something healthy with you, I like to have things like unsalted nuts ( almonds , peanuts , cashews) fruit , such as apples , bananas or strawberries, homemade popcorn ( without oils and Himalayan pink salt ) and sugar free bubble gum, all these are great healthy options. if you want to know more about healthy snack ideas check out my posts on health.

-Portable battery and chargers : My phone can run out of battery at any moment so I always carry my charger with me to plug my phone in the plane, the airport or if I'm walking around I use my portable battery, I don't even think I have to explain the importance of this hahaha.

-Jacket or Scarf : I get cold really really easily, so even if I'm going to the warmest place on earth I need a jacket, a scarf of a blanket specially because airplanes and trains tend to be really cold.
