The surge protector tip is a game changer! Probably watched 100 packing videos at this point & this is top tier information!

I used to nearly always travel with carry on only but they are making the bag sizes smaller and smaller. It's common for one of the dimensions to be only 20cm, you're lucky if a standard rucksack will fit 😔

I find clamshell annoying and a dealbreaker when buying a HardLuggage. So far I stick to soft sided luggage.

@hopscotchtheglobe 11 ай бұрын

Interesting. I'd love to know why? I feel the opposite because I've found with soft sided luggage, it can be thrown around more and I don't worry about what's inside. I also find the wheels on soft sided luggage are never good, which is very annoying for me. What luggage brand do you use? Would love to know more!

@migrose6547 11 ай бұрын

I hate the space hardsided luggage in a hotel rm. If you and your hubby have bags it's a lot of space.

@rosemaryvilgan1445 10 ай бұрын

Travelled carry on only for years. Hate clamshell as hard to find space to open. Can open soft sided on a chair eg. I use a Delsey MONTMARTRE AIR 2.0 expandable. Beautiful quality and lightweight for the volume. When I shop, I can expand and check on the way home and have a folding duffel with me to also have as replacement carry on. I only take breakable items into cabin not check.

I just checked out that carry on. It looks nice. I appreciate you sharing it and your experience. The only issues I've had with soft cases is I find they rip easier and haven't lasted me as long. How long have you been using the Delsey one?

Hpw do you use the vaccum pack bag dont u need a pump to get all air out?

@hopscotchtheglobe 11 ай бұрын

Several different options for this: a hand pump which is pretty small and easy to pack in a carry on, if you're in an Airbnb, they usually have a vacuum you can use, you can also use a hair dryer (I'll have to do a little video tutorial to show how to do this), or you can you use space bags which don't require any of these options and you roll the air out.

Don’t forget the CONVERTER unless all your device are dual voltage. An Adapter is NOT a Converter.

I am just now learning that as I'm considering a European trip so that's correct and adapter and a converter are not the same.

@hopscotchtheglobe 11 ай бұрын

@person880 2 ай бұрын

Be careful of using surge protectors in countries that have different mains voltage than yours. The surge protector rated for 120V should generally not be used in countries that use 220V. A regular power strip that has no circuity in it can be used anywhere so long as you simply convert the plug to match the country you're in.

Credibility ruined with a suitcase sponsor

@hopscotchtheglobe 11 ай бұрын

Credibility is only ruined when someone is promoting something they don't know anything about and haven't been using themselves. Two things we never do! We only promote brands we've already been using and love. Brands we can speak about from personal experience. We reach out to those brands and say "Hey, we love your products, want to collaborate?" and we are lucky that we get to work with our favorite brands and make a living while providing valuable information based on personal experience to an audience we care about. Oh, and then we ask them to give you guys a discount which they don't always come to us with. But like I said, we care about our viewers and want to provide you with the best info and if we can save you money, that too. I hope that clears things up for you :)
