Gee Thanks, Just Bought It! - A podcast by Forever35/Caroline Moss

Categories:

Have I told you guys my big shameful secret about how I’m the WORST PACKER EVER? It takes me no less than four hours to pack for a weekend away and yet I still end up with 9 tee-shirts, one pair of pants, no socks, no pajamas, a toothbrush with no toothpaste and one shoe. Luckily I have the perfect person to call in a travel emergency—Hitha Palepu! Hitha Palepu is an investor and author of How To Pack: Travel Smart For Any Trip. She shares 5 smart reads every weekday on Instagram and on her weekly newsletter, and she'll be launching her podcast, 1 Smart Thing, next month! You can follow her on Instagram @HithaPalepu.Hitha, who literally wrote the book on packing, joins us this week to talk about packing cubes, the fool-proof way to make sure you remember underwear on your next trip, her favorite planner AND the royals (or the not-royal-anymores!). Also, PILL BOTTLES AS THE NUMBER ONE TRAVEL ACCESSORY. JUST LISTEN, OKAY?This convo was so delightful that we had to essentially edit it down from, like, two hours to our regularly scheduled 30 minutes. Should we release “Gee Thanks” B-Sides in a few years? Products Mentioned On This Episode!Silk and Sonder Planner Of The Month: https://silkandsonder.comFlight 001 SpacePak Single Packing Cube: https://amzn.to/2uj8viyFlight 001 SpacePak Three Set: https://amzn.to/2uj8CuuRevlon One-Step: https://amzn.to/36eRFyFToiletry Bag: https://amzn.to/2G8YKpMCoola Sunscreen: https://fave.co/2NMYp0kPill Bottles for Travel Liquids: https://amzn.to/2NMqGUPWet Brush: https://amzn.to/2upOPJGBullet Journal: https://amzn.to/3avcVDyPlane Mister: https://amzn.to/2GcPUriEllie Hall’s BuzzFeed Article About Meghan v.
