Stuff . . .

A recent post on Digital Nomads by Jay White had me taking a step back to see exactly what I bring with me when I’m on the road. The basics include my BlackBerry (of course) with a wall charger that uses a USB cable, digital camera (since the 8830 lacks one of its own) with its charger and cable, sunglasses, an assortment of writing implements, passport, driver’s license, credit cards and the inevitable laptop with a USB mouse.

I leave behind the multi-purpose pocket knife, but include a small whistle, small Maglite, Advil and business cards. Of course there are always the ‘extras’ that find their way into my laptop backpack – highlighter, Sharpie, check book, etc.
Back when I used a ‘real briefcase’ and not a backpack, my travel kit included a few other items that I really don’t remember nor miss. I wonder what they were and why they were in my bag in the first place.

What accoutrements do you travel with regularly?
