A fellow traveler reported that humidity by a Caribbean beach killed her iPhone through its ports. Don’t let that happen to you. Radtech has the easy, affordable solution: Portectorz Port Protection for iPhone, iPad & More. They ensure “that sensitive ports remain clean, dry and sealed.”
I bought 3D Slick paint that works on fabric. My intention was to use it on my backpack. But as I started to practice using this paint, decided to give my equipment a nicer looking identification than just my name written in permanent marker

When you travel, you don’t get to control the darkness in your room. There’s always that gap in the curtains or a room is pretty but not pretty dark.
So I did sought out the best possible mask and best value for the money. My choice is the Nidra Deep Rest mask. Light-blocking, but lightweight. (You know I love that!) MOLDED so it lets me sleep in darkness but be able to open my eyes fully. And best yet, it doesn’t create eyebrow wonkiness.
