Travel Lite. Live Light.

 

You could say I'm a "professional traveler" by trade, if there is such a title. My mission with this site is to help guide you to ways to enjoy the journey. It's your time and your life; you deserve to live it to the fullest. As you walkabout past turnstiles, speed bumps, screening lines and crowds; there are always quiet paths to peace, and inner chambers of patience.

Travel Tip # 1 

Pack the Day Before.

This is my first blog entry. I appreciate you visiting. I decided to blog about travel, for the simple fact that I do it so much. I fly on the airlines at least four times or more a month with my work. I guess you could say that I'm a "professional traveler".

I believe in any en devour one should have a goal. The goal or mission of this blog is to pass on every helpful travel tip I've either learned or come across, or come across in the future. Life can be stressful, traveling can be especially stressful, certainly it hasn't gotten easier to fly on the airlines.

Travel Tip # 1 - Pack the day before.

I know it sounds simple, but one of the most difficult things about traveling is packing. Give yourself a break. Pack the day before, not even the night before, but during the day before you travel. This gives you the evening to rest and spend time with your friends and family or take some time for yourself. It's the single biggest travel tip I can give you at the start. The best product I have found for efficient and organized packing are Eagle Creek Pack-Its.

Thanks for reading.

Samsonite: Quality and Durability. 

The PRO-DLX is the best luggage for the money and Include a LIFETIME Guarantee.

The Samsonite PRO-DLX Series of Luggage is in my opinion the best value for the money. Samsonite stands behind the quality of this product with a LIFETIME warranty. You'll pay more than you would at Target or WalMart, but you'll never have to buy another bag again. The 2520 denier ballistic nylon stands up to Toughest of Travels.

Samsonite Pro-DLX 21" Carry-On Upright

The Samsonite Pro-DLX 21" Carry-On Upright is the perfect traveling companion for 1 to 4 day trips. In my opinion it is the perfect airline carry-on. It includes:

* Inline skate wheels offer durability and reduced resistance for smooth rolling.

* Compartment for 15" laptops (can hold a 16" laptop if removable sleeve is not used).

* Finishings and handles in soft Nappa leather for a sophisticated look.

* Masterfully equipped interiors and organization for maximum efficiency.

* Lightweight monotube handle for comfortable steering.
