Countdown to Asia!

Surprise! I'm going to Vietnam in a little less than a week!

As a lot of you know, I have been to Europe plenty of times! However, those were times I went to study abroad. This time is different! Even though it is through the school, it is just a 12 day study tour with some of my best friends! 

This trip will be so nice because I don't have to focus on getting school work done. Instead, we are starting from the south of the country and making our way all the way up through the main cities!

I have never been to Asia before, so this will be a complete culture shock to me. Even though we will be going in January, it will be Vietnam's summer...so it's going to be HOT and HUMID! This is going to be my first 24 hour plane ride too. My longest plane ride to date would probably be around 9 hours. However, I will be flying from Baltimore to Texas to Tokyo, then finally to Vietnam.

To prepare, I have asked for a lot of travel accessories as a part of my 2019 Christmas list! Here are some of my favorite picks below:

AirPods Pro

With complete noise cancelation, the new AirPods are perfect for those long plane rides! They have an all new design, so they are very comfortable for sleeping on the plane with. ($249.00)

Tempur-Pedic Sleep Mask

I've always had trouble sleeping, and ever since freshman year of college, I've been sleeping with an eye mask! However, it was time for an upgrade! To stay comfortable on the long plane ride, I a got new Tempur-Pedic eye mask! ($23.26)

A Super Cozy Cardigan

On every girl's Christmas list, cozy socks and cardigans are a must! Especially when you are preparing to travel! I asked for mine from Target because they have a super comfortable collection in their new loungewear! ($24.99)

 

A Cute Backpack to put it all in!

I finally caved in and bought a Kånken bag from Fjällräven! I've wanted one since I went abroad to Berlin, now I'm excited to have one for Asia (and a few other trips scheduled for next year...stay tuned!) I wanted a cute backpack to fit all of my necessities in, plus my camera! Of course, I had to get pink! ($80.00)

I can't wait to write about all of my endeavors while I am in Vietnam!
