Everyone is always telling us what we need to pack.

When you are packing for families, the lists can get quite long and the feeling that you are forgetting something never quite goes away!

So, instead of adding to the list, here I am going to share 6 things you never need to pack when traveling. Today, we are going to shorten the packing list!

6 Things You Never Need To Pack When Traveling

#1 of Things You Never Need To Pack When Traveling

Massive bottles of shampoo, conditioner or lotions. Most places you visit will have good products for you. If you need something special, invest in some travel size bottles and keep them filled with your favorite products. These travel bottles from Dot & Dot are my favorite, small enough for carry-on, lightweight enough for your checked-bag!

#2 of Things You Never Need To Pack When Traveling

Hair dryer and travel iron. Most likely, where you will be staying will have both. If not, you can grab a cheap hair dryer at the store, use it and leave it for the next. As for getting the wrinkles out, try hanging your dress/suit in the bathroom while you shower, letting the steam press your clothes for you! But most hotels, resorts, hostels or home rentals will have these things so no need to pack them.

#3 of Things You Never Need To Pack When Traveling

Expensive jewelry. I only bring the good stuff if I know there is a safe where we are staying and I follow these easy steps. Otherwise, leave it at home, it is not worth the risk!

#4 of Things You Never Need To Pack When Traveling

All of your electronics! No sense in risking losing it all plus their chargers. Try to download the apps of things you use (kindle, games etc.) onto your smartphone or iPad and then you only have to bring one electronic and one charger!

#5 of Things You Never Need To Pack When Traveling

All of your medications. Bring just what you need instead. That way if they get lost, you will still have some at home. If you are traveling internationally, be sure to check which medications are legal in that country. Things that are over-the-counter here are illegal in other countries, like Sudafed, and can land you in jail! So be sure to verify if your over the counter and prescription meds are safe to travel with BEFORE you travel and only bring what you need.

A bad attitude! Hey, you are traveling! There are going to be bumps in the road, but that is what makes our stories richer. Give thanks that you get to travel so freely, enjoy the ride and be glad for your journey!

Appreciate our incredible world!

Happy Traveling!
