Comfort and organization on your trips can really make or break your travels. Believe me, I have traveled plenty without these items, but they can really elevate your travel experience to bring any of these pieces along for your adventure. Below are 10 Travel Essentials to help you save money, enhance your comfort and keep you organized for your adventures.
1. Inflatable Travel Pillow: Whether it's a short or long haul flight, this has been a saving grace to help me sleep comfortably on a flight. It packs up small once it's deflated and it's easy to blow up to use. If you have a long haul flight coming up, I highly recommend it.
2. Bluetooth Sleeping Eye Mask: This was a gift from a good pal on my 40th birthday. I tend to stay away from items that seem too fancy for me, but this was a great purchase for me! The music is soft and only you can hear it, but it will help you relax and get good sleep on your flight.

Sleeping Eye Mask: Eye masks have helped me sleep whether it be on flights or in multi-bed hotel dorm rooms. Eye masks continue to upgrade, and this one is no exception. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles with the bluetooth, but it will keep it dark and it fits very comfortably.
3. Luggage Smart Tags: Keep in your luggage so you're able to track your bags in case they are lost. They can also help with peace of mind if your bags are right where they are supposed to be, and now you'll be able to see that without any worry.
4. Universal Travel Power Adapter: It's important to know that there are different power adapters, depending on which country you are in. Luckily, it doesn't change country to country, but there are 15 different types of sockets out there. This Universal Travel Power Adapter is the one that I have and it works very well. It works for 150 of the 195 countries. If you are going to someplace like India or South Africa, you would need a different converter. Double check on this before you embark on your adventure to ensure you are able to charge up.
5. Electronic Cord and Box Hard Case: This item became so helpful for me to simply help me keep my cords and plug-ins together. I have always been a person that tosses cords and wall chargers into my suitcase and then struggle to find them at my new destination. So this has been a game changer.
6. Power Bank: If you are going to be out and about all day, and you don't want to worry about the life of your electronics, I would strongly recommend of power bank. They are inexpensive, and can be life savers. This Power Bank is very slim, compact and will work with most iPhones and Androids.
7. Travel Jewelry Organizer: Though I don't wear a tremendous amount of jewelry, the pieces that I do bring have gotten broken and tangled while they're moving around in my suitcase. And there is nothing more frustrating from a jewelry perspective, than going to put a necklace while you're getting ready, and the chain is all tangled. This inexpensive and easy to pack item will completely save you those tangled troubles.
8.Travel Toiletry Bag: In my opinion, this can be a bulkier item, and I don't always take something like this. I usually anticipate my accommodation having toiletries that I can use, and don't take much aside from sun screen and toothpaste. But, if I know I'll be needing toiletries because they won't be provided, this is a great toiletry bag that folds out, hangs, and is waterproof.
9. Snacks: Being hungry has got to be my least favorite feeling is existence. If you know you have a trip coming up, save yourself the hunger and some money by purchasing some travel snacks at the grocery store before you start traveling. Don't wait for the airport with the markup on goods! You can take food through TSA, you only can't take liquids (which will include foods like pudding, yogurt, jello, etc).
10. Refillable Water Bottle: Don't forget to fill up your water bottle at the airport before your flight, and don't waste your money on a water bottle at the airport. Especially if you're traveling to a place where you can drink the water, making sure to bring a refillable water bottle will save you a tremendous amount of money.
