Hey! I'm Regan (it sounds like vegan). I love a cheap flight, which means I spend a lot of time traveling with just a personal item that goes under the seat in front of me. But when I started looking for advice, I realized I couldn't relate to a lot of it... either it was coming from guys, who frankly just don't need the same things as women, or from people who are minimalists. And even though I'm traveling minimally, I'm not a minimalist! So, I started sharing the ways that I travel light while still feeling like myself. I hope that these tips help you travel lighter too!

I'm filming my long review for the Bento Bag and Bento Backpack this week... Are there any specific questions or things you'd like to see?

Let me know and I'll make sure to include them in the video!

If you’ve been eyeing these interchangeable heels, now is a good time to check their site!

‪@pashionfootwear‬ is running a sale this weekend that lets you take an extra 25% off items that are already marked down. Just enter the code FIREWORK at checkout 🧨

Shop here 👉🏻 pashionfootwear.com/

The shoes can be a little $$ so I always try to grab them during sales and this is a particularly good one.

For items that aren’t on sale, you can use my affiliate code (REGANS) for a 25% discount! BE WARNED: affiliate codes only work for new customers on your very first purchase (and I’m not sure if it stacks).

So if you *do* want that discount and you’ve never shopped the site before, try the affiliate code first for non-sale items and then grab the extra markdown on sale items after that (that’s how I would do it)!

My personal faves (affiliate link) 👉🏻 go.shopmy.us/p-69136386

📐 I’m a size 7 in sneakers and get a 7.5 in all my shoes from Pashion.

I'm updating this list as i find more deals for Prime Day! There's actually a ton of shoes that would work really well for traveling in a personal item 👀. I personally grabbed some insoles to make my fashion sneakers more comfy for long walking days on trips.

🐚 For a few years now, I've casually wanted to walk the Camino de Santiago... more of a day-dream than an actual plan. When we took a road trip through Spain and Portugal in 2023, I noticed the markers while walking around the little towns, and as someone who goes on vacation just to walk around new places, it seemed like a lot of fun!

But it was hard to imagine a way for us to leave for 5+ weeks, not work, and be able to walk the entire time as well.

Recently, I learned there are shorter routes that only take about a week or 2 weeks and it's starting to seem more do-able. Like, maybe something to plan for next year?!

Have any of you hiked the camino? What route did you take and if you did it again, what would you do differently? Did you train for it, or go in cold turkey?
