Small Travel Clip-on Ring LightThe best trade show schwag item I’ve gotten the past two years has been a small clip-on ring light from Visit Richmond VA that I have with me now on this three-month trip. You never know what kind of lighting you’ll have on the road, so this ensures that my face is visible during a video call or something I need to record. It clips onto a phone or laptop and is rechargeable. This $17 GearLight version is almost identical to what I have, though this more expensive v

Easy Touring With G AdventuresIn my young backpacker days, I was staunchly an anti-tours person, but as I started to have more money to solve problems or save time, I started seeing the advantage of sometimes handing the planning to someone else. I recently went on a terrific tour of Uzbekistan with G Adventures and it would have taken many more hours than I had available to make all those bookings for transportation, hotels, and guides.

So I did what I’ve advised before in this newsletter: went to the local market and found an appropriate adapter after landing. Around $2.10 later in Almaty, I had a small device that can accommodate a U.S. plug and two USB cords at once. It’s handy since Europ

Save the Earth (and Some Money)It has been a decade+ since I’ve bought a single-use plastic water bottle while traveling on my own, but I’ve also not gotten sick even once. That’s because I always carry a refillable bottle and a water purifier in places where the tap water is questionable. My favorite is a SteriPen (highlighted in issue #180), but I’ve tried plenty of others that have worked well also, saving me a small fortune in addition to keeping Mother Earth alive.
