My Perfect Roadtrip Bag
Today I am participating in a blog hop with a few of my closest blogging friends. You might be wondering, “What’s a blog hop?” It’s an event where bloggers get together to write content associated with a specific theme – in our case, “My Perfect Roadtrip Bag” – and YOU get to move from one blog to another reading our posts and entering to win our giveaway! More on that at the end of this post.
So, what's in my bag? I definitely depend on what I am doing but I have had many years to refine it to practically a science! Let's take a peek:
Some posts on this site contain affiliate links, meaning if you book or buy something through one of these links, I may earn a small commission (at no extra cost to you!). Opinions are always my own and I’ll never promote something I don’t use or believe in. Also as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
I'll move from left to right, and here we go:
Although I don't always use it (why bother when my hubby takes such awesome photos?), I always bring my camera, a Fujifilm X-E2, and 2 other lenses for macro food shots. I bring my laptop, my iPad (now iPad mini), my iPhone and at least one (generally two) Mophie Powerstation – these are the best and I have turned so many people on to these after I charged their dead phones for them!
Next row from the left:
I used to always have a Moleskine Notebook with me, but after my recent trip to Detroit I now carry around an American-made Shinola journal with blog cards tucked into the inner pocket, you never know who you are going to meet! I am totally anal when it comes to pens. I love Sharpie pens and have them everywhere, I am very picky about what I write with!
Those are my digital and analog recording devices next comes food and health! Hotel in-room coffee will rot your gut (or at least it does mine) so my solution for that first cup of coffee while getting ready to start my day is a Starbucks Via packet. I just make hot water with the coffee maker, add the powder, and voila!
Next to that are two of my francophile staples. Cans of sardines and Vichy pastilles. Mr. Misadventures and I love sardines and I can't tell you how many times they have saved us when we were on the run and arriving at our hotel late at night, or finding ourselves on a southwestern road with only fast food joints to choose from. These little guys are delicious and so easy to pack. Vichy pastilles are mints made from the Vichy thermal spa waters. They are said to also have digestive properties as well. My mother-in-law lives in Vichy and sends them by the kilo!
Next, I have an assortment of bars: Luna, Clif, Kind. These can be (and often are) a substitute for breakfast, lunch, snack, or dinner! I have been saved from starvation so many times by these little guys!
Lastly, are two items I always have on me. I have them in every bag, my office, my car, everywhere! An old friend who doesn't blog anymore (I seem to have more and more of those lately) turned me onto digestive enzymes about six years ago and they have totally changed my life. From over-indulging to bad food, to fried food, traveling (or just normal everyday eating) can be hard on the stomach and I take Rainbow Light Advanced Enzymes at every meal and sometimes in between. I also carry a French over-the-counter medicine called efferalgan which does wonders for my migraines.
So that's it. The contents of my road trip bag! Now let's do some hopping!
The wall organizer stores 5 credit cards and a passport. A zippered mesh pocket is also included. The RFID blocking technology prevents identity theft by stopping readers from picking up personal data from your ID, credit cards, and passport. The backside includes a zippered pocket to store your smartphone and other small objects. The back and straps are padded for extra comfort. There is one water bottle pocket on the side.
Here is a list of the participating blogs and their posts:
Katie of Domestiphobia
Esther of Local Adventurer
Christina of Christina's Cucina
Tamara of We 3 Travel
Brianna of Casual Travelist
Colleen of Colleen Brynn Travels
Jenna of This is My Happiness
I also carry a Moleskine. It’s great for notes, places I want to remember, numbers, receipts….anything you want to remember. Great collection!
Thank you for including me in this blog hop! It’s been fun working on it.
I particularly like your approach from a medical standpoint… it’s true: road trips can be tough on tummies!
The mophie is a must for any road trip bag! I almost always have one on my phone.
Great collection! I would take it all…books, chargers, music, a camera and granola bars!
I’ve never heard of those enzymes – some good tips here. I love the sardines and protein bar suggestions.
Great ideas! I’m also a big fan of the Luna bars when we travel and the kids CLIF bars are great too!
Great idea on the enzymes! I’m also a big fan of the Mophie Powerstation.
I love a good road trip. Good packing ideas!
I love Sharpie pens! I have to hide my set from my kiddos.
What a great blog hop idea. I’m getting ready to go to BAM and then Bike Week. These are all great packing tips.
I would definitely pack a camera! That is a must. And energy or granola bars. They are small to pack and are great little snacks while on the road.
Oooh, I need to check into those enzymes. The worst part of travel is wanting to eat all the food but getting stomachaches because it’s not what you are used to eating!
The enzymes are more important than anyone can guess. I became dehydrated in Myanmar…NOT fun.
Great packing! I wish so much that I could take a camera like that with me when I travel.
I’d always bring my camera, too. That’s the one thing that I take everywhere with me when I’m traveling about!
I am a horrible road trip person(I get so antsy) so I usually sleep to make the time go quicker. I always have my camera on hand and chargers are a must! Is there a benefit to having a power station? Our truck has a billion USB slots but, I do love new gadgets!
If I were to build the perfect roadtrip bag the one item from Andi’s bag I would include is the sharpie pens,
I pretty much take my camera with me everywhere. I can’t live without it! it’s definitely a road trip must-have!
I’m a physician so I always pack Tylenol, antibiotics, hand wipes and a sense of humor. I found you via This Is My Happiness.
I would pick the Mophie Powerstation from Andi’s bag.
I love your ‘bag’! The only thing missing for me would be one of those little bottles of vodka! I collect them at 30,000 feet. Good Travels!
I also love granola bars & lately am hooked on Quest protein bars thanks to my trainer. They are a meal in a neatly wrapped package. Cinnamon roll is so yummy!
Luna bars are the best! Love them! I have wanted Kindle for so long but can’t afford it, so thank you so much for the opportunity to win!
Got some good ideas thank you! I love my morphie and take it everywhere. Great blog hop thank you!
I am hearing more and more about the digestive enzymes…..I am going to have to look into that. Especially for this summer when we do some traveling! I also love to pack some granola bars and snacks!
I’d love to try that Shinola notebook thingy and I LOVE Sharpies too!!
the camera for sure is a must. I have had bad dreams before trips that I have forgotten the camera
I love that crossover bag sooo much!! I never travel without a fresh journal! I cherish the ones I write in when I get home. And an extra pen. Plus, I never leave home (ever) without a book.
Wow! What a great giveaway you have going on here! 🙂 I love your roadtrip bag – especially the camera 😉
I would put in my bag a camera.
I love seeing what’s in my friends’ bags! You know I now carry my Shinola notebook, too, and I usually have a Jenny Craig bar with me. However, you will never find sardines in my bag!
You definitely look prepared for anywhere your trip might take you. My always-in-the bag items are ink pens-lots of ink pens, a water bottle, and lots of coins.
Definitely the Mophie Powerstation!
I’d bring a camera, phone and portable charger. The charger is so slim and easy to carry.
The migraine medicine is a great idea! Migraines are dreadful any time, but especially during a trip.
A camera is a must of course!
What a great travel bag & giveaway! I would pick the Mophie Powerstation! I don’t have one (yet!) but really need to get one for travel.
take tape, and string, you never know if you’;ll need it for anything.
I always bring my DSLR, iPad, kindle or book, iPhone and tea.
I love Sharpie pens- in fact I need to go get some more! Great giveaway!
I would definitely pack the camera because I love to take pictures.
I would for sure have my cell phone charger!
What about a travel guide book? With lots of photossss 🙂
The digestive enzymes is such a great idea. Long road trips typically involve fast-food which can really upset the stomach.
I have been eyeing Mophie’s for awhile now! Kind of seems like the perfect thing to ask for as a Christmas gift.
Sounds like your bag might get a little heavy, but you’ve definitely got the packing thing down to a science! I’m still working on getting there, but this is pretty inspiring. 🙂
Sounds a fun idea for a blog hop, can’t wait to see the others. I am with you on camera, snacks and various other technology, although sadly these days mine is mainly things like little trains, books and a kindle for my son to watch on the plane!
I can’t travel without my camera.
Do you have any suggestions for sardines? The only ones I’ve found that I like are either fresh ones you get from a delicatessen or canned that are too expensive (usually $30 a can).
@Susan, we don’t pay $30 a can but we do pay $8. We get ours at specialty markets – Italian, French, Spanish/Portuguese, also Sur la Table carries them. Looking on Amazon I see a few Portuguese ones that are $15/$16 which is half of $30 but still expensive! What area do you live in?
Love this idea! And love the rest of the suggestions–except the sardines. haha. Can’t get on board with those! Or on the road with those I should say!
I’d take the J Pillow with me.
My perfect road trip bag has a small notebook as well (Moleskine is my favorite). I’ve also recently added to the notebook a handy-dandy bobino slim-pen – very convenient and stays right in the book cover – and it is flat!
Love the Travelon backpack! It would be lovely to use it for my next trip to Peru! 🙂
I’m a huge fan of probiotics, especially on the road. They are a lifesaver when I’ve indulged in one too many roadside eats.
I am so picky with my writing utensils as well. I too love Sharpie pens !
A good notebook and a pen that writes well are a must for me too! I rarely leave home without them! 🙂
Definitely the Moleskine Notebook and very fine Sharpie! (I do actually pack these when I travel. 🙂 )
I would pack the iPad Mini
I would take some LUNA bars with me. They are always good in a pinch.
Like you, I have to have my iPad mini. It’s like the Swiss Army knife of the tech era – I can keep up with the world I’m escaping, take notes on my travels, even take pictures if it’s all I have handy.
iPhone…it can get you out of a lot of bad situations
Between the camera and the notebook it’s hard to decide but I think I’d have to pick the camera. Any road trip needs one and in my opinion, almost any day or event needs one too! I don’t ever get mad for taking too many pictures, only when I forget my camera and take none! With digital room to take as many as you want, why not?
I would include the Fujifilm X-E2 camera and 2 other lenses and the laptop
I would bring my camera to capture all the moments!
I would absolutely have to have a camera in my road trip bag.
I love that bag!
I would include the Kindle LOL
I’d take the assortment of bars from your bag.
Always my camera
I would bring my phone as well in case of emergency
Definitely need my phone.
I won’t pick one of the obvious big ticket items when commenting on you’r blog post because I found a simularity between you and I. I am also insane about what I write with. Sharpies! Only Sharpies! I have them everywhere, as well!!
I like the idea of the portable charger, and I’d include an Ipad, camera, snacks, and a water bottle.
Sweet Stuff!!
i would definitely bring my Cannon camera with two lenses
hand sanitizer is a must!
Mostly just a phone!
Great prize package!! I would love to win this!!
I would need the granola bars so I don’t get Hangry!
I’d pick the cellphone over the camera just out of necessity.
I think the one thing I would love the best from your pic of travel items would be the Bars and the power station! Funny how we are so dependent on our phones and such now…………
Granola bars or trail mix are always good
I would definitely pack Imitrex formy migraine headaches
I definitely need my cell phone, which I use for pictures as well. I’m always carrying at least 2 additional charging cases or portable chargers as well!
I think I would include the charging bank…they really are so helpful! 🙂
been wanting to try some enzymes
I have hungry boys and men in my family so I would carry protein bars (Luna or other)
Luna bars and Cliff bars! An absolute must have when I go on roadtrips or adventures. Go to Costco and get them in bulk!
i would include a camera too
Great list! I love taking bars with me because I am definitely the type to get “hangry.” There are always a few stashed in my bag. Cliff Bars are great, but I also love ProBars and 22 Days bars. 🙂
The camera would be a MUST. 🙂
Mophie Powerstation for my phone and tablet
I would definitely pack the camera!
I always have excedrin and snack bars. Even I’d it’s just a drive to work
I would have to agree with the camera although mine is not as nice as yours but my samsung takes wonderful pictures and it’s so much nicer than using my phone.
I would love to have a nice camera again! I don’t care what people say, the phone cameras can’t compare to a good camera!!
I agree with the snacks. Mr. Duvall and I MUST have lots of snacks on our Road Trips. (No Sardines Allowed Though!)
The camera and power bars
The charger for all the devices. Always take emergency snacks.
the power charger
Camera and some great music!
I’d take the enzymes recommended.
The perfect item would definitely have to be a camera
I’d want to bring the Clif bars!
I would pack the Morphie Power Station — I always need to charge something!
The camera as I’m always taking pictures
I’m a writer so I definitely would have to take a notebook and some pens with me, as well as my tablet and my phone.
I would definitely have the digestive enzymes in my bag. When I travel it seems I eat things I normally wouldn’t at home and it messes with my stomach so they would be a must have.
I would have my credit card.
I would definitely include the granola bars! They would keep me alert and my belly happy!
If I were to build the perfect roadtrip bag, one item from Andi’s bag I would include is the Fujifilm X-E2.
Great choices! I wouldn’t go anywhere without the notebook and a pen
A camera is absolutely necessary.
The camera and the phone charger would be a must.

Great stuff in your bag. And great bag — the backpack looks like it would be great to have on trips.
the camera
Great Collection.. Probably all the items in the list, coz its similar to mine. I usually pack the slr, some books to read, ipod, road snacks, notebook & pen, iphone, chargers, medicines, etc..
My sunglasses to keep those wrinkles at bay, my Kindle and my iPhone are always with me on a road trip. I like what’s in your bag, too.
I would choose the Mophie Powerstation from Andi’s bag.

We’ll be taking a roadtrip in August so this is great for getting prepared! Thanks for sharing!
Wow! what great ideas! I’m definitely going to have to try this stuff out. I am usually SOOOO unprepared…and basically drink whatever coffee is given to me, lol! <3
Great giveaway! I always have some sort of snack for me and my kids. We love the fig bars from Costco!
Great list. I would definitely agree with the assortment of bars, Luna Bars are my favorite.
Wow, awesome prizes!
Love your roadtrip bag, too. Camera + journal + snacks are a must!!
Road trip must have: CREDIT CARDS! 😀
It would have to be the nice backpack.
I love the anti- theft bags! I had no idea such a product even existed.
Thanks for co-hosting this giveaway! I absolutely love road trips and we usually take our dogs with us, so we always have stuff in our bags for them as well! 🙂 I like your idea of bringing along a notebook.
What a great list. Makes me want to get up and go travel somewhere. Thanks for sharing.
The health bars are something I would include in a road trip bag. I’m also considering the Rainbow Light Advanced Enzyme System, since I have terrible digestive issues.
I like to carry snack bars with me as well… I always seem to get hungry at the most inopportune times!
I always bring my Kindle with me. It is very hand and fits in my purse. Thank you for the chance to win another one. My son wants one
Mine would have the pens I LOVE PENS!!!! My Hubby even calls me a Pen Whore LOL
Moleskine for sure to journal about the trip
i would definitely need my camera and some snack foods.
All great choices! I’m especially fond of Moleskine notebooks – they’re the best! 🙂
Your bag looks great! I think I could pick it up and go and be fine!!
Thanks for introducing me to some new blogs! I love this road trip post. I’d have to say that from your bag, I couldn’t live without my iPhone. I love the idea that I can drive in any direction and explore, with the confidence that my gps can still save me if I need it 🙂
I would have never thought to pack a can of sardines! we’ll definitely have to try that next time. 🙂 we have packed those tuna salad packages with crackers before while hiking. before!
My camera, phone, and tablet are always nearby. I would also have to include snacks, and a water bottle. My son’s roadtrip gear typically takes up the entire backseat!
I love those Sharpies, too! That’s what I would bring, I mean a writing implement is always handy!
Fujifilm X-E2 is what id pick for my bag
I would want to take the Shinola journal with me.
Very nice bag! I always like to carry something to nibble on in my bag. A snack mix or a protein bar is usually my go to!
I would carry water bottle and snacks and and sunglasses.
Re: WOW, I luv the Moleskine notebooks Divine. . OMG. Wow, prize kindle is fab. & splendid. 2 fingers snap. It is tight, fly & off the chain. Thank you for the awesomeness, the contest, and generosity. Pick me, pick me! Dear Santa: I’ve been nice. My X-Mas wish this year is to win this contest. Starving artist here desperately needs the kindle to read, work and eat again.
Great list! I love molskine notebooks and sharpies too! There is just something so satisfying about a nice notebook.
I really hope I win 😀 I love road trips!
that’s awesome giveaway!! Looks very awesome roadtrip bag.
Definitely the camera
I always carry a tumbler, loose leaf tea and a tea ball. I like to have hot tea on road trips!
In my bag I would definitely take some energy bars
I don’t go anywhere without a camera, so that is #1 on my list.
I find that a camera is *must* for a road trip! And any kind of trip. You know what? It’s a must for life in general.
I always bring my camera when we go places. Love taking photos!
The camera is a necessity for me because, like my father, I love to capture the world around me in a way you can always enjoy even after its’ time has passed.
Sardines, everyone in our family loves them and they are quick and easy.
I love that you bring Luna and Cliff bars. I like trying all different brands and flavors of them. I think Kind bars are my favorite.
A power station is a must have when traveling as well
I love Clif bars and they are a must during road trips!
Music, phone, pillow and blanket!
I would take sunscreen too
great giveaways! And i love everything you have in your bag 🙂 Those are important things for being on the road 🙂
The J Pillow.
This is a great list! A camera is on my list as well as snacks and drinks too.
I would take the Mophie Powerstation to charge my phone. I’ve only recently tried Kind bars and I love them.
I’d carry lots of Luna bars. Love them!
I would pack the Mophie Power Station because my tablets are always dying on me! Thanks for the giveaway!
The Shinola journal
snacks and some water
Entering #2 to win it…thanks for the opportunities to win.
My camera and phone BUT I need my tea always 🙂 Great ideas to pack
Love, love, love this blog! I am an independent hair stylist who created her salon around a Parisian/vacation theme! Love your travel goodies but I would travel no where without my iPad mini, gluten-free snacks and a homemade scrapbook journal with crafting goodies.. also with a Sharpie pen (I prefer the extra fine tip!). Thanks for the giveaway.
I love both bags you show, but I think the cross body would suit my needs best. I carry fiber bars and Sharpie pens and so many other little items depending on where the journey takes me and who goes with me. The contents are totally different if we have Foster kids with us as that changes our needs…..drastically!! LOL
I am totally “Old School” so I would also include Sharpeie Pens in my road trip bag. After all pens don’t need a battery or need to be re-charged.
I don’t know which of the bags I want to win more. they’re both great!
I would carry the Moleskine with me – I carry one all the time and keep it on my bedside table. It’s a special one from a VIP bag from a Leonard Cohen concert (I snagged it off ebay – I didn’t get mega expensive concert tickets!) It’s one of my prized possessions! I love it so much I mostly write on post-its and put them in the notebook. I know, I know – I’m weird.
I also carry an assortment of bars with me at all times. They are key for placating hungry toddlers (and hungry mamas too)!
I can’t play !! I don’t have a phone that supports instagram and when I tried to set it up on the computer I made such a mess !! Have fun all of you that can play ! Good luck !!
I too have suffered from travel eating so I am really interested in the Rainbow Light Advanced Enzymes for digestion aid.
I love Luna bars so I would take those too, the Morphie Powerstation and enzymes are also a good idea to bring along on a roadtrip.
mine would definitely be laptop or tablet
J’amènerais dans mon sac un téléphone car on ne sait jamais ce qui peut arriver.
The camera! I don’t like to go anywhere on a trip without one to snap photos of my adventures.
I would also bring my camera- gotta have photos!
Ok…for sure I would have to bring my phone with me! My phone is the LG G2, kinda old…but I love it! Cannot live without it! I also was thinking, my blood sugar gets low sometimes so I would have to have some kind of energy. Those Clif bars are amazing for this!
These are great. The laptop would be a must have for me! Thanks!
I would bring a camera
Great bag!! I always carry a notebook these days, too… love keeping travel diaries! I’m like a kid with it, I make doodles, glue receipts and all kinds of things in there 🙂
Thanks for sharing this. My road trip bag changes depending on where we go but these are great ideas!
I would also take it all: books, chargers, music, a camera and granola bars! For my travels I need to have a pen and a book that I can write in.
Great giveaway… thanks!
Now I am really itching for a road trip!!
My road trip bag would also include KIND bars. They are a must!
I would pack a camera!
I would definitely bring my cell phone.
Camera is my #1 item when packing for any type of trip so I would choose that from your bag first.
Good road trip kit. Like you have the digestives everywhere, I pack ginger chews everywhere. There’s almost always one in my pocket, with a supply in the car, the desk, the house… They help settle the tummy, alleviate “Taco Bell Breath” and are just yummy.
I would include a Camera and extra Lenses.
It has to be my camera! I love to take pictures. And what’s better to save those memories than LOTS of pictures and videos?!? xo
I NEVER go anywhere without my iPhone. This way I can either take pictures or take films! Love it!
I’m a big fan of Sharpies too, and I never leave my iPad behind.–all my books, crossword puzzles, calendars, guidebooks and internet pastimes in one neat little package! The best way to pass a few hours in an airport or find a restaurant…
Camera is a must at all times. Lucky you that your hubby takes pictures, I have to draft strangers now and then so I can be in the photo!
This looks like a nice traveling kit. Mine looks a bit like this but with a lot more snacks though. LOL!
Love my travelon crossbody bag – it fits just what I need for the plane, isn’t too heavy for daily travel use, and it’s gone tons of security features!
I always have at least one camera on me plus extra batteries. Nothing sadder than being somewhere beautiful only to have your camera run out of juice! I’m totally looking into that powerstation now. When my daughter is cranky she can run down an iphone battery pretty quickly. 😛
Definitely the camera! Gotta have awesome pics.:)
The camera would be the first thing I would pack. I don’t have extra lenses though.
I would include the migraine medicine! Unfortunately I am prone to them and only certain things will work once I have one!
I would also take some Kind bars.
I would definitely take my iPad (I LOVE the iPad mini!) Then I could keep writing songs like an artist on tour. Ha ha.
I would make sure I packed the camera.
gotta have the camera to keep all those memories!
Great selections! I would def bring the notebook as well! I love writing travel logs 🙂
I can not leave home without this baby 🙂 camera 🙂 Fujifilm X-E2 and reusable water bottle
I think the camera is a must! You can never have enough pictures and memories!
I would include the camera because you have to have memory pictures and pictures for your friends and family to view, whether they want to or nit.
Definitely the pillow.
I would take the Shinola journal.
Looks like two amazing prizes!! Thanks for the opportunity.
Definitely would add a camera. Must document all trips!
The snacks are a must have for any road trip.
for sure i would make sure there is a camera great one to have!!!
I would pack the ipad or ipad mini. If I had sardines in my bag I would give them to you! LOL!
I would need the audiobooks!
I’m with you on almost all of that stuff. I also take some Melatonin for when I’m hyped and excited and can’t sleep but really should sleep. Still, the sardines, I dunno about that.
I would have to have me that Mophie Power Station, for sure!! It would really come in handy for the trips I am planning!!! 🙂
My camera is a road trip must have.
I find there’s always the trick balance of bringing everything you might need and bringing WAAAY too much, HAHAH! With kids, I always make sure to have wipes and band-aids through.
And a camera. Definitely a camera
I must try the digestive enzymes you talk about above. Thanks for the info! And I definitely agree with you about the hotel coffee rotting your gut, that stuff, no matter where, is pretty much the worst part of any trip . Thanks for the chance to win this awesome blog hop.. Happy travels
This is a great post. I absolutely would bring a camera with me on a road trip. I’m loving all the items on this list.
I would definitely have camera in my bag
great giveaway! :0
Love the contents of your perfect travel bag, Andi! I’ll road trip with you anytime! 🙂
I just love the Shinola journal to write in and keep track of my adventures. I often like to write info on the pictures I take so this is perfect to take notes on. Like all the colors it comes in too.
I would carry water bottle and snacks and and sunglasses.
I have to have the Rainbow Light Advanced Enzymes. Every time I travel I have to try the local food but it always tears my stomach up.
I like to have hard candy on hand.
These bags look fabulous! I would always pack a neck pillow (inflatable), and moleskin for sore feet!
I’d pick the cellphone, snacks, water and a camera
I would bring my phone!
Starbucks coffee!
I love your camera! Its a must take with me too. I love to take pictures of everything! Capturing beautiful memories! 🙂
Bars are really great for road trips and I really like the Luna bars.
camera is a must anywhere you go
If I went on a road trip I’d love to bring luna & clif bars
A Camera.
Definitely a journal!
Definitely my iPad — I take it in my roundtrip bag!
Love Luna Bars–especially the Lemon Zest flavor. And food enzymes make a world of difference for my tummy, too:)
Since I’m a film buff, love the camera and Mophie power station.
I’d bring my iPhone because I’d probably get lost at some point.
I would love to carry the Mophie Powerstation from Andi’s bag this is something I never think of!
Can’t travel without camera. It’s is an unwritten rule. I’ll see something great and no camera. Lesson learned.
I had no idea they make anti theft bags like this. I should look into it for my next european vacation.
I would pack a camera, notebook, and pens!!
A charger. I’ve used my numerous time not only for myself but family and friends as well. A tube of tylenol is a must.
A camera is definitely a must-have. You have to capture those memories.
have to have my camera
I’d bring my laptop. Well, if I got a new one. mine is too big…and falling apart. I’d like to get a smaller one.
I love the KIND bars.
I’m getting set to go to Italy in may and figuring out what I need to bring. Selection of granola bars seems like a solid addition.
I would take Katies neck pillow because i can’t ever get comfortable
A mp3 player.
You lost me with sardines but got me right back with the luna bars. They r so good and ful of good nutrition
A Kindle would be great to have along. If not that I would need a map because I don’t have GPS, a better phone because I don’t know if I’d get service and my Triple A card in case we break down.
I’d take the cliff bars as my first choice
The camera. Whats a trip without pictures to remember it?
the charger is key; what good is the other stuff if it’s dead?
I would take the Fujifilm X-E2
My perfect road trip bag must include a camera and your Fuji is a great choice!! 🙂
My husband and I used to get in the car on Friday evenings and just drive, with no destination in mind and travel for the weekend. It was great, but we were never prepared. I now wish we had a bag set up as good as you have for your travels. Now, I tend to way over plan because we tended to not have what we needed back then. A camera is always a must though.
I would definitely have to include the camera. Need to capture all the memories and sites.
I always carry water, phone, money, and portable speakers for my road trips.
I don’t know about the sardines, but I’ll take your word for it. I’m a little late to the party, but thanks for sharing.
My dream roadtrip must have a camera
