Traveling is so exciting, yet so exhausting. Especially when you are traveling across the country like I did last week.
As you probably know from following me on Instagram, my boyfriend and I said goodbye to the sunny beaches of South Florida and headed off for our end of summer vacation. We traveled for over 11 hours before reaching our final destination– Seattle, Washington.
I’ve never been so far from home in my life, or on such a long journey! Thankfully, I had my Obelus Global Arequipa bag with me to carry around all of my travel essentials.
I recently shared my travel makeup bag essentials and tips, and featured the Obelus Global York Cosmetic Case. I’ve quickly fallen in love with their products because of the cute prints and the fact that their bags are foldable. Believe it or not, all of their bags easily fold and zip into compact storage pieces, making it easy to store them when not in use.
Best Carry On Bag for Fashionistas
The Arequipa bag was the perfect fashionable carry on bag for my trip to Seattle because It has tons of space and pockets to stuff it with my travel blanket, neck pillow, and of course all of the gadgets! Speaking of space, it’s hard to resisting the lively cherry outer-space print on the bag.
While switching flights and stopping for a layover, it was easy to carry my Obelus Global Arequipa bag because it has handles and a shoulder strap. I also like that it has a bunch of nooks and pockets to store things in, like my ID and boarding pass.
My favorite thing about this bag is coming directly from my inner germaphobe– the fact that it’s washable. Which means, I can bring home all of the memories from my trip, without all of those creepy germs that linger around planes and airports.
For all of my South Florida locals, I’m happy to let you know that Obelus Global has opened a kiosk at the Miami International Mall. If youβre in the area make sure to check it out!
Since coming back from my trip I’m on a mission to spread love and joy, and I’ve teamed up with my friends at Obelus Global to giveaway a Arequipa bag to one lucky winner! Test your luck below and good luck!
Annette Prejean says
The most important thing in my carry on is my toothbrush. If my luggage doesn’t arrive with me, I don’t have to worry about searching for a store to buy a new toothbrush, since it’s with me and not in the suitcase.
Heather G says
My eye mask, because I always want to catch some sleep on a flight and the eye mask really helps.
LEEBETSY PRENDERGAST says
My notebook and pens because I love to write and can be inspired at any minute. Plus I have my to-do list, bucket list, etc. and you never know when a moment occurs that something needs to be checked of the list :0).
Kathy Detweiler says
The most important item I carry when I travel is my Nook. I can bear nearly any delay as long as I can read.
Tamra Phelps says
Well, I’m diabetic, so the most important thing in my carry-on bag (or any bag I carry with me) is my medicine. I need to always know I have that with me!
Holly Thomas says
My prescriptions, it would royally suck to lose them.
Shelley Way says
I love to bring a book! It’s one of the few times I get to read π
Melissa S says
The most important thing I ppack when I travel is my mini emergency kit. It has a sewing kit, ibuprofin, wet wipes, etc.
Kathy Davis says
I suppose the most important are my medications, vitamins, and toothbrush. But, I would be upset to lose all my cosmetics and jewelry. My entire bag is important to me. Thanks for the chance. π
Nataile Brown says
The most important item for me is whatever book I’m reading. There’s always times when traveling that it comes in handy to have and helps to make the most of down time. Thank-you!!
Carla S says
My most important item is eyedrops because I have chronic dry eye and I never know when I will have a flare up.
