Let’s be honest: packing for a trip abroad can feel like solving a Rubik’s Cube. Totally impossible and overwhelming. Yet it can and should be simple and pared down to essentials!

Snacks aren’t just fuel—they’re comfort, joy, and a little slice of home when you’re miles away. Packing the right snacks can make your trip smoother, your layovers shorter (at least in spirit), and your mood brighter.

From personal travels to professional triumphs, family celebrations, and deeply meaningful collaborations, 2024 was a whirlwind of growth, connection, and transformation—not just for me, but for the incredible community of women I’ve been privileged to work with.

Packing can be stressful–but it doesn’t have to be. There are some philosophies about packing–and there are for sure plenty of decisions to make while packing– but most of the beauty is that the things are easily sorted with a LIST. Yes, a list for all of you little-list-loving Virgos—a list is your best friend while packing.

Packing for a trip, and especially for a trip abroad can be fun but also a bit stressful. You don’t want to forget any items that you may need –and you want to look your best while jet-setting around the globe.
