Excerpt:
“For me, a trip ends a lot like how it started: with packing. As soon as I get home, I unpack and repack for the next trip. I have a double set of necessities I like to keep in my carry on, including travel-sized toiletries and makeup, so it's a matter of restocking to prepare for my next trip. That way, I don't have to worry about forgetting things, and it takes a lot of decision-making out of the whole process. I have a special place for travel items at home, including my passport, electronic adapters, and other specialty items like a travel-sized hair dryer or small umbrella to grab as needed.” – Juliana Broste, Travel Video Journalist, TravelingJules
Top Travel Hacks for the Holidays
Featuring the NEW T-Mobile Un-Carrier On Suitcase
GEARING UP FOR THE HOLIDAY TRAVEL SEASON
The holidays are notoriously the busiest time of the year for travel. What’s the secret to getting to your destination smoothly? My recommendation is to pack small and pack smart:
TIP #1: If you’re going on a short trip, challenge yourself to squeeze into a carry on. If you are checking a bag, be sure to put all your essentials in your carry on, so you can avoid getting separated from your most important things.
TIP #2: BYO-P. Bring Your Own POWER! It’s no fun trying to stake out a plug at the airport. Packing a portable charging station will give you that extra bump of juice when you’re on the go.
TIP #3: Packing cubes are a great way to stay organized, so you can keep your shoes separate from your toiletries and beyond. Plus, it’s much harder to forget something important when everything has it’s place.
I hope these tips help you have a smooth holiday travel season! HAPPY TRAVELS!
Take a peek at the new Un-Carrier On by T-Mobile!
I love the stylish MAGENTA shade, you’ll always know which bag is yours. It’s one of those cool smart suitcases that comes with a portable charging station and get this—it offers WIRELESS charging so you don’t even have to dig out a cord. Of course you can charge other devices through USB-C. This suitcase has tag smart technology, so you can locate your bag on an app on your phone. This limited edition carry on also features TSA approved locks, custom wheels and a flat top surface for working on the go! As well, you’ll find a bunch of handy packing bags to stay organized.

Going Solo: Why I Like Traveling Alone

Excerpt:
“When you travel solo, you invite the world in,” says Juliana Broste (aka TravelingJules), a travel filmmaker based in Denver, Colorado, who was hired by Bumble to swipe while globe-trotting — dating, yes, but also using the BFF and business modes as she explored Singapore, Bali, and Whistler, Canada. The pandemic cut the gig short, though she still travels on her own.
“It’s great getting to organize my day based on my interests,” Broste says. “I don’t have to wait for anyone or ask anyone what they want to do. I can be spontaneous and make things up as I go.”
Interested in experiencing the solo travel magic for yourself? Here are some tips to make your first adventure seamless.
