Silicone Stasher Stand Up Bag
One of those specific and great uses is using it as a clear toiletries bag for TSA. Luckily, this silicone bag is easy to use for us and the people at TSA, making the process of getting through a total breeze.
Seriously, they are incredible and even have a repurposing program!!
♻ Sustainability Highlight: Oh yeah, it’s incredible, simply send in Stashers that have worn or broken over time, and they will upcycle those bags into tracks and playgrounds! ECO-WIN!!
Stasher Bags
Astonishingly these bags are made of 100% silicone, being BPA free.
Since they are made of silicone, that means they are safe for use in the freezer, oven, dishwasher, microwave, and even in boiling water.
Best of all, these are a great replacement for single use plastic bags, especially because they have a repurposing program. Any Stasher bag broken can be given a new life, being turned into a playground or track surface.
Overall, these are key product favorites for snack bags, travel toiletries, freezing fruit for smoothies, and so much more!
FinalStraw Collapsible Travel Straw 2.0
FinalStraw is an innovative straw that was actually funded on kick-starter. This straw is easy to bring anywhere we go, full collapsible into a little container on a keychain clip.

Bagito - Grande Reusable Grocery Bag
Okay how gorgeous is this bag?! Guess what?! It’s made from recycled plastic. No need for single use plastic bags that rip within minutes or end up in the landfill. It turns into a small little pouch, making it easy to carry. The company also donates to an organization that educates K-12 students on how to live a more sustainable lifestyle.
Terra Thread - Lupa Canvas Tote Bag
Each person has their choices on texture preference. Recycled polyester and canvas bags are both awesome. I personally have some of both. However, canvas breaks down at the end of its lifecycle. The one thing with canvas is that it can be porous, I highly recommend opting for darker colors, like the one pictured. How fun is that color?! Love it!
Hydro Flask Wide Mouth Water Bottle 40 oz
Hydro Flasks are another great water bottle option. They offer a wide variety of sizes, shapes, and colors.
The double-wall vacuum insulation keeps your drink hot or cold for hours and prevents the outside of the bottle from becoming too hot in warmer climates or if left in the sun.
Having the straw attachment is a nice convenience and can encourage us to stay easily hydrated, making it one of my product favorites

JOMO - Bamboo Eye Mask
Firstly, this Bamboo Eye Mask is an absolute essential.
I personally notice a huge difference in sleep after using an eye mask regularly & traveling, but this isn’t just any eye mask.
So, this eye mask is made from 100% organic bamboo. As well as sourced from naturally renewable and sustainably harvested bamboo forests, using less resources than cotton.
This eco-friendly sleep mask is breathable and hypoallergenic to gently keep your eyes cool while blocking out light.
Don’t wait another night for a great night’s sleep – anywhere!
High Fidelity Reusable Earplugs - 24dB Advanced
I’m not sure if you’ve ever experienced earplugs before, but they are an absolute must for good sleep or even reducing stress when in busy environments.
Ever hear people snoring loudly on a plane, someone slamming dishes somewhere, or that animal that doesn’t seem to stop barking?
Whelp these quickly became essential, I’m sure you’ll see what I mean.
Plus, they conveniently clip to your keys or bag to be readily available for you whenever you need them!

GSI Outdoor - Salt and Pepper Shaker
One of the best things about this neck pillow is that it inflates and deflates for easy storage and it’s actually more comfortable than it looks! It’s got a layer of fabric over it to add to the softness of it, and it compacts to about 3/4 the size of a phone!

ANVIL TSA Approved Cable Luggage Locks
An ultra-durable zinc alloy body and steel cable shackle ensures your luggage lock will make it through rough airport handling. Plus, the strength of the locks is backed up with a lifetime guarantee.
I’ve found these to be an absolute essential when staying at hostels or even when wanting to lock up my luggage when I decide to leave it behind the hotel front desk, as I explore and in between check outs.
Cotopaxi - Cubo Uno Del Dia Packing Cube Bundle
Packing cubes are essential for condensing, separating and organizing. Especially when trying to get everything to fit in smaller and small suitcases!
Personally, I use the smallest one for socks, undies, and my bathing suit. Then the medium one I keep my winter clothes/dress clothes in, and the large one is for everything else.
♻ Sustainability Highlight: Each cube is made from 100% remnant materials that could have ended up in a landfill. Note: Because each bag is made from repurposed fabric scraps, each color combination will be unique!

An amazing aspect of this protective device is that it’s able to go on many flights, as long as it’s in the checked baggage. But be sure to double check the flights beforehand!
Another great aspect, is that this stun gun doesn’t have prongs. Which is great, because when the prongs get unaligned, on other devices, the stun gun no longer works. So, this one is super durable!
Terra Thread - Cadera Fanny Pack
In the beginning I used to think that fanny packs were a bit of a fashion statement from the 70’s but no I’m a BELIEVER.
After taking my hand fanny packs with me to other countries, it became an essential item. Especially when separating currencies.
As well as my essential chapstick, passport, abundance crystals, cards, I.D, gum, motion sickness medicine, etc.
Plus, the purchase also supports Feeding America’s campaign to end hunger by helping donate meals to kids and families in need.
♻ Sustainability Highlight: Made of organic cotton canvas.

U.S. Traveler Boren Polycarbonate Hardside Rugged Travel Suitcase Luggage with 8 Spinner Wheels - 30 inch
We may not be able to control how people handle our luggage, but we sure can control what we choose to use to protect our luggage. I’ve picked a hard shell to allow me to not overpack, protect my belongings, be waterproof, and it’s so much easier to move around than carrying it all.
As someone who’s fairly nomadic, my absolute life essentials all need to fit, too! If you’re planning on being nomadic, yours will need to be as well! So, opting for the 30-inch (0.76 m) and having what you need can be crucial.

APPAREL
Black Diamond Alpenglow Hoodie - Women's
As someone who personally love hot/warm weather and lots of sunshine, these UV hoodies are essential.
But I will say that I’ve tried many and this is by far one of my absolute favorites! It’s lightweight, a beautiful color, and super comfortable.
Patagonia Nano Puff Vest
Vests are an all-time favorite because they offer breathability but also warmth. This vest can be layered on top of a tank top, sweater, UV shirt, or even a hoodie. So many variations of comfort!

Wolven leggings are beyond comfortable; they are my go-to comfy, sexy, exercise, everyday outfit. The crossover tops hug my curves, the straps are adjustable, and they are really quite complimenting to any shape. Oh yeah, they also have pockets, a total game changer!
Did I also mention they are carbon-neutral, donate 1% for the planet, and are made from recycled polyester! For each purchase, Wolven removes one pound of trash from the ocean.

Alta Vista Jacket (Windbreaker/Rain Jacket)
As someone who lives in the PNW, a raincoat is something that’s virtually a must. Especially near the beaches or waterfalls.
Luckily, The North Face adjusted their designs to have this jacket stuff into itself, making it easier for traveling or adventuring.

Xero Z-Trail EV Sandals
Xero shoes offer a natural flexibility and grounding experience between nature and our bodies. They virtually resemble running or walking barefoot, having just a thin layer of protection between our feet and the ground, offering an all-encompassing connection.
Not only that, they have an amazing warranty and a multitude of different options.
Also, Xeros are partially made from recycled water bottles! ECO- WIN!
Salomon Speedcross 5 Hiking Shoes
These Salomon shoes are by far the best I’ve found, the thick rubber grip on the bottom is amazing, the quick lace (no tie) shoe laces are convenient and they comfortably hug my feet allowing no room for the shoe to twist while walking.
PS: They do have wide available as well.
Injinji Run Lightweight No-Show Socks
These socks are absolutely spectacular for running, hiking, and backpacking. So much so, that I used to get blister between my toes when I’d be getting sweaty in combination with the friction.
I love these!
Plus, COOLMAX® EcoMade fibers wick away sweat to keep feet cool; made from post consumer recycled polyester
Prana Vivienne Swimsuit Top - Women's
Another beautiful swim top, made of recycled plastic! But this one is more durable, made by an ethical company, and also has some cute touches!
Prana Schaffie Swim Shorts - Women's
A comfortable go-to, stretchy, fitting, comfortable, and these don’t ride up the back. Which is perfect!
Whether these be for swimming, soaking in a hot spring, surfing, or even just walking around town; these are incredibly comfortable and diverse.
Plus, they’re made of recycled plastic! Whoo-hoo!
REI Co-op Screeline Cap
Thankfully, almost any hat that provides some kind of shade is best.

GEAR
Backpacker's Pantry Three Amigos Veggie Stew
Backpacker’s Pantry Three Amigos Stew is a bit different from most of the backpacking meals I’ve had so far, it has incredible flavor, it’s filling, and even has some greens!
Backpacker’s pantry donates 1% to the planet, made in a 100% renewable energy factory, and they even have a Terracycle recycling program.
Backpacker's Pantry Three Sisters Stew
Backpackers Pantry Three Sisters Stew has the three main ingredients we crave that are heavy, yet satisfying.
Backpacker’s pantry donates 1% to the planet, made in a 100% renewable energy factory, and they even have a Terracycle recycling program.
Good To-Go Mushroom Risotto
Good To-Go Mushroom Risotto is extremely creamy and satisfying for lighter cravings. I always have a couple of these on hand, and bring at least one on every trip.
Peak Refuel Mountain Berry Granola
Peak Refuel Mountain Berry Granola is one of the few oatmeal/granola meals, that I have found delicious. It’s great both cold and hot! There are multiple textures and flavors throughout it, while most others just turn to mush.
Peak Refuel Three Bean Stew
Peak Refuel Three Bean Stew is also another one of my top favorites. This meal is a combination of two nostalgic favorites; mac & cheese and chili. Such a comfort after a long day or a hard hike.
Backpacker's Pantry
Pad Thai
The Backpacker’s Pantry Pad Thai is one of their best and most sold out meals!
Although it’s marked as spicy, there’s the option of not even adding the sriracha that comes with it. Which means it appeals to many more taste buds and preferences. I always have at least one on had!
HydraPak Seeker 2L Collapsible Water Container - 70 fl. oz.
After trying the hard plastic water bladders and having them crack after just a couple uses, I found these silicone ones, and I’ve not looked back since!
They are perfect for travel, backpacking, hiking, etc. Especially because they can be completely collapsed and crushed down to fit in most crevices.
REI Flash 22 Backpack
he REI Flash 22 pack is ultralight, spacious, comfortable for light loads, and can easily compact for backpacking and travel as well.
Best of all, the back panel pad can be removed for use as a sit pad, as well as a waist strap & sternum strap for added comfort!

PS: A good rule of thumb is to have a 22-25 liter pack for day trips & adventures.
Adventure Medical Kits Ultralight
Surely this is one of the best first aid kits I’ve had.
Not only is it stocked full of almost all of the basics, but it comes in a heavy-duty ripstop bag for most adventures and ensures contents are kept clean and dry
Pared down to a weight-saving bare minimum, this Adventure Medical Ultralight/Watertight .7 medical kit contains the most essential supplies.
America the Beautiful Pass - 2024/2025
First and foremost, the American The Beautiful Pass is absolutely essential for anyone regularly enjoying the outdoors.
So, most entrance fees start at $30 per entrance, but this pass covers all entrances annually, for only $80! WOW!
Seriously, I wish I had known about it sooner.
This pass is honored at sites managed by the Forest Service, National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation and Army Corps of Engineers
Katadyn Hiker Pro Clear Microfilter
This Katadyn water filter pump has been absolutely amazing and very user-friendly.
I personally chose to get the clear Katadyn Hiker Pro because I had wanted to see the filter at works, especially since this filter easy to clean.
To clean the filter, simply swish in the water. How easy is that?!
As far as the durable structure, it’s made of a Glass-fiber element that’s pleated for increased surface area to handle silt and muddy water
Lastly, when considering a filter, make sure it physically removes particles, protozoa and bacteria down to 0.2 microns in size, including giardia, salmonella, cryptosporidia and others
This one does!
Fenix LD30 Rechargeable Flashlight
As far as this Fenix Rechargeable Flashlight, it’s extremely durable, high quality, and extremely bright.
Comparably, a typical headlamp is about 250-500 lumens, while this flashlight is a whopping 1,600 lumens.
Fortunately, having this level of brightness will allow you to see a greater distance and will make it easier to spot any potential hazards.
Not only that, it’s rechargeable, yay!

Gregory 3D Hydro Trek Hydration Reservoir - 3 Liters
After going through multiple water bladders, I finally found one I like – it’s this one!
Some benefits of this Gregory 3D Hydro Trek Hydration Reservoir – 3 Liters is that it’s BPA free, doesn’t leak, and it has multiple modes for all activities.
Luckily, the Gregory 3D Hydro Trek Hydration Reservoir – 3 Liters comfortably, so this Reservoir just compliments that pack wonderfully!
TINMIU Rechargeable LED Headlamp - 2 pack
After having these head lamps for years, I can truly say that this two pack is an absolutely amazing deal!
Not only do you get one, but you get two of these rechargeable, 1000 lumens (lumens measures brightness), and adjustable headlamps.
Oftentimes, we can lose track of daylight, or maybe an emergency happens, a magical cave appears, or something gets dropped between some dark rocks, a head lamp is always a great hike essential!
*Disclosure: As an Amazon Influencer, I earn commission on qualifying purchases. I truly appreciate your support and this is how I’m able to keep the blog alive.*
Cascade Mountain Tech Trekking Poles - Carbon Fiber + Adjustable Locks
One of the best benefits of these trekking poles is that they take the weight off the knees and back, plus allow us to have a couple of “extra legs” when needed.
I’ve personally noticed they come in handy for super steep hikes and when trekking through water and they’re incredibly lightweight for any trek!
Plus, the carbon fiber material so much stronger than the typical aluminum ones, personally if I’m resting body weight on these, I need them to hold up!
*Disclosure: As an Amazon Influencer, I earn commission on qualifying purchases. I truly appreciate your support and this is how I’m able to keep the blog alive.*
Air Horn/Bear Horn
Although what may work for some predators don’t work for others, It’s worth having multiple forms of protection.
As far as bears – mace and the air horn are said to work, but with larger cats I’ve read that the air horn can be more affective since they move so incredibly fast.
So, again, it’s worth having both!
Trowel
Overall, trowels are used to bury human waste but can be multipurpose tools too, if you get the right one!
This one here has serrated edges to slice through tough ground and roots, so this can dig where other tools struggle in comparison.
Outdoor Research Helium Bivy
Alright, yes, having a tent is the typical shelter most people know of, but there’s also a bivy.
I absolutely adore bivy’s because they are significantly lighter, typically hold the heat in much easier (up to 10 degrees more), and are generally easier to set up!
However, just like any piece of gear it can have it’s own challenges, like being a bit more difficult to get in, the bivy gets really warm, not great for people with claustrophobia, doesn’t protect gear, and can condensate if not well ventilated.
But as someone who’s almost always cold, doesn’t put my dirty gear inside my tent, and have found that tents will typically have condensation anyways.
Marmot trestle elite Eco 0 sleeping bag
First and foremost, this sleeping bag has come in handy more times than I had ever thought. It kept me warm in my van on those cold nights or even through those backpacking trips through the canyon and mountains.
Not to mention it’s made out of recycled materials and durable rip stop polyester, so the love for the environment doesn’t compromise quality.
Oh, and best of all is that because it’s made out of polyester, you’ll stay warm, even if it gets wet, unlike other materials.
Therm-a-Rest Z-Lite Sol Sleeping Pad
Personally, having a comfortable sleep setup is truly essential. If we have poor sleep, then that means our recovery is also going to be impacted. I can speak from experience!
Firstly, this base layer Therm-a-Rest Z-Lite Sol Sleeping Pad protects your blow-up pad from rocks, adds extra cushion, and even gives another layer of blockage from the cold ground.
Osprey Ariel 65 Pack
So, this is the other brand of backpacking packs I have had the pleasure of trying and honestly, both are worth mentioning.
Comparatively, these Osprey packs are quite a bit different.
Firstly, they are much thicker in material, which also means more sturdy but also heavier.
So, each backpacking backpack has it’s own benefits.
Also, this Osprey’s front pocket is more sturdy and less likely to get stretched out, but the Gregory pack’s front pocket can fit more because of the elastic.
However, if you’re looking for a strong, sturdy pack, that can endure some nature-based beatings, this is the pack for you!
Gregory Mavens 65L Backpacking Pack
After trying many backpacking packs, I’ve found two really amazing ones that are both great in their own way. In fact, I have one of each, both a Gregory & an Osprey.
So, this one is the Gregory Maven’s 65 pack!! I totally adore it!
Best Feature: Lightweight & Pocket Variety
Disclaimer: This is a XS women’s pack, but not to worry! They have many styles and sizes available – click here to view their inventory!
PS: Just make sure to get a pack 65 liters or larger! The smaller size barely fits a bear canister and the essentials with it!
Knee Braces
A knee brace unloads stress from the knees and pushes the pressure to the thigh, creating better mobility in the knee joint while reducing stiffness and helping improve workout recovery.
Have you ever seen people with tape on their knees? Whelp, this is the more sustainable and easier option!
I absolutely love these! I use them on any hike longer than 2 miles (3.22 km), and on every backpacking trip.
They also pair well with the pain relief slaves, just place it under the knee brace. As someone who has struggled with knee pain since I was a child, being preventative in this area is huge!!
Kammok Hammock Set
The Bug Free Hammock Kit includes a Roo Double Hammock, Python 10, and Dragonfly Insect Net. This entire set up is perfect for lounging around the backyard, taking a light afternoon nap, or hammocking while camping out. The Roo Double gives extra room for partners, friends, or even the added option of sitting upright.
This company is amazing for their quality, lifetime warranty, certified B Corp, they recycle any broken hammocks or gear, lastly they also contribute 1% to the planet. This company is great!
BearVault BV475 Trek Bear Canister
Although I’ve seen many people have bear bags and lines, I find them to be an extra step and hassle. Plus, many National Parks and wilderness areas still require a bear canister regardless. So, I’ve just kept it simple and stick to the bear canister.
Just be sure to keep it in the center of your pack or even weight distribution, and 100 ft (ca. 30 m) from your campsite.
Dragonfly OSMO™ Ultralight Backpacking Tent
Of course, having a tent is always a great go-to and can be convenient when having two or more people.
Also, tents allow for lots of wiggle room, are great for people who prefer open spaces, can hold extra gear, accommodate taller people, and ventilate better to reduce condensation.
I previously tested out an REI Co-op flash air tent and was so disappointed that many tents can’t take the top layer off to look at the stars. I’m so glad that the NEMO tent allows me to see the stars – I’ve gained a new-found appreciation. Plus, it’s got a way better ventilation setup.
Electronics
Nimble USB-C Car Charger
This fast car charger has 18W PD, without the risk of overheating or overcharging, protecting your electronics. Nimble is a very sustainable company; Certified B Corp, donates 1% for the planet & sustainable nonprofits, and is carbon neutral. Did I mention they also have a take back program? For every product purchased, Nimble will recycle up to 1 pound of e-waste through their One-for-One Tech Recovery Program. They simply ship you a return envelope for your broken electronics, to be sent back to them.
APEKX Bluetooth Headphones with Charging Case
While exploring a new area, hiking, or even while blogging I’ve got these headphones in.
Not only do they connect effortlessly, they are also waterproof and last for up to 22 hours.
Unlike other headphones, these also have a 1 year warranty, so you know that they are made to last!
After constantly having my cord yanked out of my ears from drawer handles and one headphone not working with the corded ones, I knew bluetooth was the new experience.

Garmin Forerunner 945 LTE
Most smartwatches these days have such basic functions for close to the same price. This watch can be completely customized with chosen watch faces, notification settings, and downloadable maps
Garmin watches set the bar a bit higher with the built-in GPS. The GPS is great for anyone who loves being active.
Garmin can guide trips or even training sessions. Making any outing seamless.
NIMBLE Champ 10K Portable Charger
Over the years, there have been many times I’ve not paid attention to my battery power or having the GPS running will completely drain my battery, and having a portable backup battery is of course a hike essential!
This portable charger is composed of recycled aluminum and bioplastics, how kool is that?!
It also has the ability to charge multiple devices at the same time.
♻ Nimble is a very sustainable company; Certified B Corp, donates 1% for the planet & sustainable non-profits, and is carbon neutral.

This stand holder for desk is made of aluminum alloy and features 3000 times rotation-tested hinges for maximum stability and durability. Also, the tillable clip allows us to adjust the angle as we like.
Anti-slip silicone padding prevents your tablet and desk from slipping, so you can watch videos without worrying about a fall or flip.
Plus, it folds up to be packed and traveled with fairly easily.
Small Rechargeable Wireless Keyboard Mouse Combo
This rechargeable keyboard is compact, and the perfect fit for the Microsoft Surface. Even better, the edge of it is magnetic and connects well to the surface too.
One amazing aspect is that the keyboard and mouse are both rechargeable and have the ability to be turned off. Which is great because when sticking them in our bag, they won’t lose battery or click everywhere. WIN!
Microsoft Surface 9 Laptop/Tablet + Keyboard
When it comes to travel, I needed something small, easy to take anywhere, and high quality for working. So, I settled on this Microsoft Surface.
Especially because the quality is fantastic, and the touch screen is essential for me. It’s got an icore of 7, and you can choose how many GB you’d like.
Also, because it’s more of tablet-style, I can set it up on the stand/holder and not suffer from neck issues.
Metapen Stylus Pen for Microsoft Surface
One thing that I’ve been working towards, as I become more paper-free, is to find digital alternatives.
This pen has been a great replacement for actually physically writing things out, and instead having digital storage.
Not to mention, all the creative fun projects and artwork that are naturally a result of it.
(Works for Surface Pro X/9/8/7/6/5/4/3)
Megoo[2 pack] Tempered Glass Screen Protector For Microsoft Surface Pro 9
One rule I live by is to put care and prevention into my belongings. Whether it be my phone, computer, etc.
I always have a case, glass screen protector, or other forms of protection. Also, protection allows us to preserve what we’ve bought and not have to replace it frequently, which is better for the environment!
So, this is an essential item in caring for your Microsoft Surface Pro 9.
Google Pixel 8 - Unlocked Android Smartphone with Advanced Pixel Camera
Most people know that we are either android or iPhone users. Well, I’m an android user and have been since I got my first phone.
But they’ve grown extensively since then. Especially with pixels coming out. I mean, the photo quality is spectacular and the Google integrations are seamless.
Allowing for easy access to Google Photos and Google Drive, as well as extensive customization options. I love it!
PS: Having the phone unlocked allows you to use whichever phone provider you’d like. Personally, I use Google Fi (Which is an international plan – perfect for travel)
OtterBox Google Pixel 8 Symmetry Phone Case
I have a funny story for this one. Once upon a time, I left my phone on top of my grandma’s car and she drove off and it flew forward/ But she didn’t see it and ran over it. Mind you, I had the otterbox case on it and all that happened to it was a rock dented the case, but my phone was perfectly preserved.
I’m a customer for life! The case is so amazingly durable that I can’t imagine relying on any other flimsy cases, instead I want a durable one to protect my lifeline! Especially while in another country.
♻ Sustainability Highlight: Made with more than 50% recycled plastic
Nite Ize Ca$hBack Phone Wallet
I have a confession, I was often someone who would lose my purse. So, I had to begin thinking of other options, and then settled upon a phone wallet.
I’ve tried countless phone wallets, and they may be pretty, but they fall apart after a month or two. But not this one. It’s extremely durable and lasts as long as the phone lasts for me. WOW!
If you never lose your phone, but lose your wallet or purse, then this is for you too!
Milomdoi 4 Pack Screen Protector for Google Pixel 8
One rule I live by is to put care and prevention into my belongings. Whether it be my phone, computer, etc.
I always have a case, glass screen protector, or other forms of protection. Also, protection allows us to preserve what we’ve bought and not have to replace it frequently, which is better for the environment!
Unidapt Universal International Travel Plug Adapter
Although many plugs are upgraded and more universal these days, there have been some homes that I’ve stayed at that had their classical plug.
Which was also at a work desk and no other plugins in site. This is always good to have, just in case!
USB C Fast Charger for Google Pixel
Now most phones are converting over to USPC, so having a great charger is essential.
When using maps, GPS, or taking lots of videos while traveling, the battery on phones drain fast.
So, this fast charger is perfect! I’ll never go back to a regular charger again. Before, my charger would take maybe 8 hours to fully charge my phone, but this fast charger takes maybe an hour or two! It’s fantastic!
Sustainable Beauty & Care
Lazy Coconuts Eco Friendly, Plant Powered Laundry Detergent Strips - Fragrance Free, Unscented ❌
These travel sheets are spectacular for travel, I absolutely love them! I think I’ve bought three packs of these over the year. They’re compact, lightweight, eco friendly, and get the job done!
Also, they are rated first for ingredients—cruelty-free, vegan and free of dye, perfume, parabens, phthalates and more.
Each pack comes in 100% recyclable cardboard.
Although I use these for most of my travels and they do a good job, sometimes I do have to or also prefer to use the Dropps for an even deeper clean when I’m home!
Dropps Laundry Pods
After finding out that traditional brands have a massive amount of chemicals, I was on the search for something non toxic and eco friendly.
I tried using many brands, and was disappointed until I found this company.
Dropps Laundry Pods are mess free, eco friendly, come in compostable packaging, contain no plastics, and are extremely easy to use.
Plus they are gentle on the skin; by being fragrance free and dye free!

Albatross Butterfly Safety Razor
This razor is high quality stainless steel, and rust resistant. I’ve personally had mine for around 4 years now. This razor also gets a much closer shave, while still being gentle on the body. Never feel guilty about throwing away another plastic razor again, albatross even has a take back program for the razor blades.
Albatross Safety Razor Replacement Blades
These razor blades are the refills for the razor itself. Most razor blades get tossed or are not even able to be recycled, but did you know that the stainless steel can infinitely be recycled. So far they have been recycling the blades into their famous Albatross take back ware utensils! So amazing!!
Razor Disposal Case
After using the albatross shaving razor, we are left with some razor blades that dull out over time.
So, having this razor disposal case is essential in ensuring the safety & protection of our environment, and others.
Also, this container also holds up to over one hundred blades.
Best of all, once full, simply send over to Albatross and they will melt them, turning them into cutlery. How awesome is that?! ECO-WIN!

Badger Joint Pain Relief Balm
As someone who’s had knee pain and knee issues since the age of 12, having muscle balm/salve is a game changer. As well as on the lower back after a long flight.
I simply put it on right before hikes, backpacking, and long walks. Oftentimes, even under my knee braces too.
Badger’s Organic Sore Joint Balm uses the power of nature to soothe muscle aches and pains, with arnica montana and black pepper acting as a natural anti-inflammatory to tackle any pain. Paired with cayenne and black pepper oils, it also works to hydrate chapped skin, poor circulation, and general stiffness.
Plum Brilliance - Arnica Pain Relief Muscle Balm
Since creaking multiple bones, and regularly having either neck aches or back aches; I’ve always got a joint pain balm on hand!

Plus, it contains no sulfates, parabens, chemicals, or additives!
Plum Brilliance - Natural Healing Salve
Salve is absolutely essential in day to day life. Salves are exceptional for a cut, scrape, burn, or a skin irritation. Salves are fully composed of natural and wild botanicals. A little fun fact, I actually used to forage and infuse my own! This product is a great replacement to a traditional ointment.
Marley’s Monsters - Organic Unpaper Towels
These are a total multipurpose product. They can be used as paper towel replacements, napkins, facial wipes, small drying cloth, a tissue, or even to wipe down dishes. Being 100% organic cotton means they will fully break down at the end of their life. So versatile and useful.

Okay, let’s face it, bug bites are a complete menace. So, having options is key. I’ve always got at least one of these three on hand and haven’t bought another brand in YEARS! These all work great and are sensitive skin safe.
This insect repellent is toxin free and all natural! Which is why I love it!
Some downsides are that it comes in a plastic bottle and is 4fl oz, so it’ll have to go in your checked bag. (Tip: Sometimes I dump this one in my badger spray bottle when it’s sold out)
Badger Natural Anti-Bug Spray
After trying a wide array of products, I’ve personally found this natural bug spray to work the best.
To get started, this bug spray is nontoxic, conveniently in a spray bottle, and in eco-friendly packaging.
Compared to, most bug sprays that come with DEET, in aerosol cans, plastic bottles, and all options are incredibly toxic or harmful for the environment.
Simply spray this natural bug spray on wrists, ankles, and ears to say goodbye to bites the holistic way.
Badger Bug Balm
This size is perfect for flying and backpacking, not to mention that it doesn’t leak!
Made from organic and cruelty-free ingredients, being A DEET-free bug repellent.

♻ Sustainability Highlight: It comes in a recyclable metal tube and comes optional reusable metal tube key to ensure you can get all the toothpaste till the end.

The Humble Co. - Bamboo Toothbrush
In addition, to them already being an essential everyday product, a plastic toothbrush alternative can take over 500 years to break down, wow!!
Comparatively, these bamboo toothbrushes can be composted, repurposed as garden markers, or even burned and the ashes can be used in the garden or house plants. It’s a much better after-life.
Davids - Fluoride Free Sensitive + Whitening Natural Toothpaste
Lottlop bamboo toothbrush heads are made from natural sustainably-grown bamboo and plant-based bristles, the plant-based bristles are BPA free and derived from natural castor plants rather than fossil fuels.
These are the perfect replacement for the traditional toothbrush tops.
♻ Sustainability Highlight: One eco-friendly tip is once you’re finished using these, simply place in the fire and burn and then use the ashes as nutrients for your acidic loving plants. (They are super thick and take a long time to break down)
Philips Sonicare Electric Toothbrush
Although I will admit, this ins’t the most sustainable option for the planet. It is one that’s more sustainable for my body and helping prevent chemicals and waste from getting more tooth work done. So I still consider it to be sustainable but in a different way?

Prevention is always the way to go! I recommend this sunscreen here. Raw Elements sunscreen is lightweight and safe with TSA, so it’s backpacking, hiking, and travel friendly too.
The consistency is a thick white paste and is best applied with a light lotion underneath it to help the sunscreen spread.
Raw Elements is toxin free, all natural, and comes in a metal container making it more eco-friendly. (I was actually recommended this product by the flight attendants on Hawaiian Airlines to protect their coral reefs!)

Believe me when I say, others I have tried in the past were just too small and kept slipping out of my hands or had plastic handles, this is a great alternative!
