I always take these five things on a trip with me no matter where I am traveling because it does not matter the destination for these things. Of course, if you are traveling somewhere cold, you would pack completely different articles of clothing than if you were going to the beach. But these ten things never change.

1. A Good Book

The world underestimates the power of a good book. I love being lost in another world when I read. Books always seem to pass the time relatively quickly while I am traveling.

2. Picture Taking Device

I frequently joke that my love language is, pictures. I know this could not be true because it is not one of the five. I love being able to capture amazing memories with pictures. Candid photos are my absolute favorite because I like being able to see the emotions that a person was feeling at that exact moment.

3. My Stitch Stuffed Animal

So I am probably going to get made fun of for this one. I am a cuddle sleeper and I could not imagine not having this to cuddle with.

4. My Headphones

Music is my absolute best friend. I do not know what I would do without being able to listen to music. My love of music does not just disappear when I am on a trip. I always have my headphones in order to listen to my favorite songs.

5. My Phone

Okay sure, I bet everyone is thinking that this is an obvious answer, but I want to be able to share my wonderful experiences with my friends and family.

I love traveling. I love the new experiences and the new people I meet while I am on the trip. I want to travel the world and I would not do it without these five things.
