Travel Accessories I’m Bringing to Europe
For my imminent trip to Europe, I’m bringing a few new travel accessories as well as ones I’ve used on prior trips. Note: I am not affiliated with Amazon or these products. On previous trips, I’ve used a regular handbag and/or a belt bag/fanny pack. But, since this is a longer trip visiting many popular places, I decided to up my game and get an anti-theft bag. After reading reviews, I ordered this Travelon Anti-theft Crossbody Bag. It’s slash-resistant and the zippers hook together to make it difficult for pick-pockets to access. The bag also has an
Nick’s #40KFaraway bag is packed. Here’s what’s not inside (and what is)
The path to the #40KFaraway challenge has been fun. When we hatched the idea for this challenge, I think we expected it to be entertaining for readers. There’s no doubt that we knew we’d enjoy it, too. But I’m going to go out on a limb and speak for Greg an Stephen in saying that I don’t think we realized just how much we would enjoy this challenge.

Allbirds Review: Fantastic Shoes for Travel and Daily Use

Allbirds describe their shoes as “The World’s Most Comfortable Shoes” and they achieve this effort with the use of natural products. Their shoes

As always, links in this post may pay me a commission if you boost the project through my link. I wanted to start The
All about Feet and Travel
A little bit of an unusual post this week. This is an important one, however. Love your comments/feedback. Before Travel - Consider what shoes you will need. Are you going to be sitting around the pool? Exploring cities on foot? Attending dinners and functions? - Practice walking in your shoes before you travel. Wearing your new sneakers on day one of a Paris walk is not a good idea! In the air - Don’t take your shoes off during take off and landing. Wear closed in shoes that will protect your feet if you need
