Getting ready for a road trip requires tons of preparation–down to the last-minute packing, fury of planning and figuring out an itinerary. I’m working on a huge road trip snack guide that I can’t wait to share, but until then I wanted to share some essentials that are just for me. First though, whether you are looking for some designer luggage, a cosy sleeping bag, or even a new camera to capture your road trip memories, check out BuyersImpact.co.uk to read all the latest news and reviews from the world of appliances and gadgets.
Road Trip Must-Haves
1. Books: When I’m not online or with the kids, I’m reading. If you’re not the driver, I really suggest getting in some reading in or finding some time to read by the pool/beach or before your go to bed. Some of my favorites from the summer, include The Girls, The Nix, The Gypsy Moth Summer, Sweetbitter, All Grown Up, A Man Called Ove, and The Wonder, to name a few favorites.
4. Lip Balm: I’m addicted to the new Gardeners Intensive All-Purpose Balm from Crabtree & Evelyn. This bad boy works to alleviate dry skin patches, heal scrapes and scratches and provide general soothing relief from dryness. A botanical-infused formula (cloverleaf, eucalyptus and rosemary) that also contains shea-butter and beeswax that works to soothe and moisturize chapped skin. I’ll be sure to keep it in my bag for myself and my kids over vacation.
5. Notebooks: I’m a notebook addict. There’s something about the blank pages that’s filled with so much possibility to jot down thoughts, draw or most likely give to my kids to doodle in. Whatever its intention, I always love the bright palate from poppin and have been obsessing over their three-pack of metallic assorted mini soft cover notebooks that are embossed with their fun “work happy” motto.
