Hot Tip 1: Travel Packing Cubes
Be sure to purchase the best TRAVEL PACKING CUBES you can find. (We love Eagle Creek Packing Cubes)
Not the cheapies on ebay. They suck.
Do not ever travel again without these packing cells in your suitcase, luggage or backpack. They are life-changing. Your number one of essential travel items. And that is no joke.
Packing cubes mean I never ever have to worry about my dirty laundry being exposed by a suitcase that has busted open. It’s all neatly packed away, ready to be washed when we get home. I use a luggage organizer to keep the souvenirs, travel maps, and tech safe and sound too.
SO good. Travel cubes are non-negotiable essential travel items on our family travel checklist.

Hot Tip 2: Travel Insurance
The other thing you must add to your ultimate packing list is travel insurance.
Make this a priority, and do not leave home without it.
If you can’t afford travel insurance, you can’t afford to travel.
This goes for road trips too.
I’ve been stuck in the middle of NOWHERE, Turkey Creek/Warmun Roadhouse in outback Australia, (look it up here) with a broken down kombi van, and not much cash.
It’s no fun.
Luckily I had RACQ Ultracare which provided 3 nights accommodation in the roadhouse hotel, plus coach travel for the three of us to Broome, our next stop. (We could have chosen to go all the way home too.)
Worth every cent.
