TripIt
Email yourself your travel itineraries, activities, etc. so they’re all in one place. No more transferring everything to the calendar app!
Read a book set wherever you’re traveling to
Ideally by a local author.
Travel pill pack
I keep one ready with ibuprofen, migraine meds, allergy meds, antacids, kids’ stuff, so it’s always ready to go.
Foldable Travel Kettle
A lifesaver for tea drinkers, or if you don’t trust hotel-room coffee makers.
