Tis the season for sweet travels…You got any big plans this Spring Break or Summer? I promise I could just live at the beach! To help get you ready, I’m sharing my travel necessities and planning printable with y’all today. One of those necessities happens to be the new Dove Dry Oil Beauty Bar and Dove Dry Oil Moisture Body Wash. I’ve partnered with Dove to share with y’all about their New Dove Dry Oil Collection. Amazing!
Traveling is supposed to be relaxing, but if you are anything like me you get this nervous and excited anxiety that starts just a few weeks before departure day. The excited part is a wonderful feeling for a new adventure. But I want to help you kick out that nervous part by relieving some stress about forgetting to pack something or not having everything taken care of before leaving.
Travel Necessities
#1: Journaling Bible
My top priority when traveling is to have my Bible with me. I enjoy starting each day of a trip, or any day for that matter, with my daily quiet time and scripture reading. It begins my day and trip with a calm and serenity.
For those of you that have begun the Bible journaling adventure with me, be sure to bring your journaling Bible with you with just a few simple supplies such as some colored pens and date stamp. Traveling is the best time to get some inspiration and relax while documenting it all in in your Bible. Check out how to get started with a beginners guide for Bible journaling if you are interested.
#2: Oversized Handbag
A large and oversized handbag is absolutely necessary whether I’m driving on the open road or flying high above the clouds. I want to have a bag that is big enough to carry a journal, snacks, and camera along with all the other goodies that I keep in my purse.
You want something that isn’t too large that would still be comfortable to carry through an airport or while shopping. I got this handbag during the holidays, and it is definitely one of my favorites. It actually has a smaller handbag inside of it that can be removed which is perfect to quickly take out and head shopping without lugging around the larger bag.
#3: Laptop or phone
Because I am a blogger, it is hard to unplug and get away from electronic devices and social media. When I’m traveling, I have found a balance that helps me to enjoy my trip and relax while still being able to document it all using the camera on my phone or my laptop.
At night when I’m winding down, I find I am most inspired and motivated to write. I love being able to go back and read the details of a trip day by day and not forget anything.
#4: The New Dove Dry Oil Collection
Many of mine and Mark’s vacations include going to the beach. The salty ocean water, sand, and sunshine are relaxing but can be harsh on my skin and hair drying it out majorly. The Dove Dry Oil Beauty Bar and Dove Dry Oil Moisture Body Wash is made to cleanse my skin when I’m showering without leaving it feeling dry which can happen easily at the beach. It protects while also nourishing my skin because of its formula that consists of Moroccan Argan oil beads that helps to replenish nutrients to my skin.
Because 9 in 10 women are concerned about having dry skin, Dove Dry Oil Moisture Body Wash goes beyond basic moisturizing to help women nourish and protect their dry skin. I have been using argan oil on my hair for a long time so it only makes sense to use it for my skin too.
The Dove Dry Oil Beauty Bar is also great to leave in my bathrooms at home for my family and even guests to use to wash their hands. I am constantly washing my hands so its nice to have something now that won’t dry them out.
#5: Travel Planning Printable
Before any trip, I am always making lists of all sorts of things to help me prepare. Those lists range from things that need to be taken care of before the trip, things to buy for the trip, to my packing list as well.
Because I tend to make so many list, I finally made my own travel planning printable that keeps all my notes and lists in one convenient place. Now preparing for a trip doesn’t have to be stressful anymore.

Thank you so much for this list! I’m actually leaving in a few weeks to go to Holland so these travel necessity lists are right up my alley 🙂 Also love your bag (and the color! So cute!).
You are so welcome my dear! That sounds like a fun trip. Have a blast! The bag is also one of my favorites. I am loving aqua so much lately.
