Hey there my Steemit friends! Here we have another round of three Travel Pro Items you need to be Travel Pro! This series highlights the things I travel with. These are basically everything I own, so each one is well thought out and very important; important enough to carry all over the world! Now let's see what's needed!
HDMI Cord
A brilliant Travel Pro Item if I do say so myself. After living out of hotels around the world for the most part of the last fifteen years; the TV's in hotels, even old and cheap hotels have become outfitted with HDMI cords. So why not travel with an HDMI cord?
There is nothing worse than having a long day of travel, getting settled into your room, you lay down, relax, turn on the TV, and all that you have to choose from are stations in a foreign language or CNN!
I always have some enjoyable TV programs downloaded and saved on my laptop. Hooking it up to the TV via my handy HDMI cord and watching shows on a TV screen really can be the comfort one needs while being so far away from home.
Living Travel Pro is not all about destinations and activities; it's about living a lifestyle that is comfortable for the long run. This "Travel Pro Item" helps in the comfort department in a big way and I'll always have it with me wherever I go.
Cell Phone/Camera
This item was going to be my SD disk holder thing that connects to my computer to transfer files to and from my camera. But just a few weeks ago in Buenos Aires my camera broke! Me cell phone was pretty lousy too. So for the first time in my life I got myself and very high quality smart phone that takes the place of both items.
This Huawie GW model phone I got for for $250 in Argentina fulfills my "Travel Pro Needs!" It has a 13 megapixel camera facing outward and another 8 megapixel camera facing inward. It also has all the computing power and memory space I need along with a battery that allows me to record hours and hours of video on a single charge. It also has all sorts of apps I'm still yet to learn how to use.
This is a great replacement for my old used Samsung Camera I bought for 50 bucks at MBK Mall in Bangkok Thailand and my low quality ZTE Blade smart phone I bought in Playa del Carmen Mexico last year for 60 dollars. Living travel pro without the blog for over 10 years I've had no need for a smart phone. So even though the technology has been around for years, it's all new to me and I'm finally getting with the times, and enjoying it too!
Instant Coffee
You just never know where you'll be and when you need some sort of pick me up. Sometimes you'll be in a real situation looking for a place to stay in some remote village and you are just totally lagging in the energy department. Like Pop-Eye the sailor man I'll sometimes pull this out of my bag of tricks and mix it with whatever water I have left in my water bottle. Shake it up and chug it down; giving me that boost I need to get things done.
This is not my beverage of choice, often used only in emergency like situations; but sometimes you just need a boost, need a sharp mind, and need to get things done and make good decisions. Even putting some of this instant coffee in my mouth and swallowing with a few swigs of water can be a huge help when I really need to be sharp and alert roaming the streets of a foreign county.
With over 11 years of travel experience I answer travel and international lifestyle questions. Leave a question in the comments and I may make a Steemit post just for you!
