We all know traveling can be difficult and stressful at times. There is so much you must do before you can actually take that vacation or get to your final destination. These tasks can cause quite a headache, but it doesn’t have to be like this. There are many different things you can do that will drastically improve your travel experience.

Pet owners, pay attention! We know you love your pet. You really and truly do. But you hate when their fur gets all over your clothes. Despite brushing your dog or cat regularly, somehow their fur still seems magnetically charged to your shirt or pants. It’s impressive, really. Especially if most of your wardrobe consists of black. Well, we found a way to help get rid of pet fur, and no, it’s not with a lint roller.

Packing cubes are useful while traveling, but you’ll need to re-pack everything before you leave if you used your hotel dresser or closet. Unless, of course, you use a hanging packing cube like the Stow-N-Go Travel Luggage Organizer.  See the rest of the article here: 8 Best Packing Cubes of 2022 | Packing Cubes for Travel (popularmechanics.com)

As a travel writer, I basically live out of my luggage. Since I'm constantly on the road, having the right gear to help me get from point A to point B as quickly and easily as possible is vital. My current on-the-go essential is my beloved Cotopaxi carry-on bag, which I discovered thanks to a friend who covers travel for the New York Times. I've been meaning to return the favor by introducing him to some amazing luggage. The problem? He already has the best bags out there.

But traveling must-haves go way beyond totes and weekend bags. For example, how do you keep what's inside tidy? So, I decided on something else to send my friend's way: the Stow-N-Go Small Travel Luggage Organizer, a portable packing cube and space saver that has become a necessity for me while trekking across the country.

When Leland resident Talia Afoa talks about what she does, she uses the term "product development."

That's because, she said, "If you say you're an inventor, everybody thinks you're crazy."

Cue images of a mad scientist in a lab, emitting howls of maniacal laughter.

That stereotype doesn't apply to many product developers, including Afoa, who saw her first invention hit the market this past August. She licensed her leak-proof, non-stick silicone baking mat to Grand Fusion Housewares, Inc., which specializes in products with innovative designs.

Ever notice that the more "boutique" a hotel is, the less drawer space it has, and the larger the hanging closet? It's frustrating for travelers who like to unpack. This snazzy, three-tiered portable shelf solves two problems at once. It allows you to organize and pack your items once and then remove in one fell swoop to hang them in the closet. Even the larger one -- at 17.7 inches wide -- fits into a 20-inch carry-on. Price $24.99-$29.99. More info: bedbathandbeyond.com
