What to pack for a short trip in the Fall ~

Deciding what to pack for a short trip in the Fall is a large piece of the travel puzzle. Is it going to rain? What is the weather like? How many pairs of shoes do I need? How much walking will I be doing? Will I be taking the larger suitcase and check it or will I be carrying on?

On Sunday, we will be traveling to Seattle, one of my favorite destinations in the United States or anywhere.

I know that I am biased, but these knowledgable bloggers are an excellent source of practical suggestions and have contributed to my trips in ways I never knew possible! They are also extremely generous with their help and offer excellent personal tips from their journeys.

Although safety and security regulations are much stricter than they were 10-15 years ago, I think overall, travel is easier. With our ability to communicate so easily on a world-wide basis, we can solve problems via phone and computer instead of running all over a new European city. We can also do so much advance research. Years ago, we only had travel books as a resource and they could have been published years before!

Are you always on the lookout for a unique gift for travelers ? Take a look here!

Lucky me! Once again I have come across a unique gift for travelers, but it would also appeal to just about everyone! Old or young, adventurous or observer, I find this idea pretty intriguing.

Jessica Larrabee, who is an accomplished traveler and clever entrepreneur, contacted me about her brand new endeavor. Inspired by her love of travel and her noteworthy accomplishment of visiting ALL 50 STATES, she created Explore Local Box.

Explore Local Box will send you a box filled with terrific products from local artisans from a new city in the U.S., each month.

“Let’s travel across the United States together. Each month a new city will be explored through locally made food and products delivered right to your door.”
