Before the pandemic, travel meant hopping on a plane and filling my passport with stamps. However, that all changed in 2020. Our borders were closed, and we did not feel comfortable traveling by plane, train, or bus anymore. So, as an alternative, we started exploring smaller cities and towns a few hours from home. Since then, we have become road trip warriors. As the weather gets warmer, you may be planning a road trip of your own, so now is a great time to chat about what to pack for road trips.

This episode is sponsored by Knack Bags, a slim and lightweight backpack for everyday use but also expands when you need it. Knack Bags are functional, accessible, and stylish. I love that it packs like a suitcase (opening horizontally) so you don't have to dig for items in the dark. Get a Knack bag and use the code 'TTCKNACK' to get a free TSA-approved lock with purchase; add the TSA lock to your cart with your Knack bag, enter the code and get it for free.
