When I visited Little Otsu in November I seriously had a hard time not buying everything in the whole store. The problem with travel is that it's really difficult to bring paper goods back without getting damaged. I figured ordering them online and snail mail would be a better mode of transport. This Tour Diary is calling to me in light of our vacation plans for a trip to Japan this year. I hate to admit it, but the iPhone can't be the sole source of vacation organization.

Convenient and compact travel shampoo. I could see this being extremely useful backpacking through Europe or road tripping cross-country in the USA.

Nap Sac Travel Blanket

It's way to hot right now to consider a blanket, but if I were traveling by air I'd pick up one of these right away. Soft fabric and handy travel pouch with bonus pillow and multiple colors to choose from, yes please!

Bucky :: Utopia & BuckyBag

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

A good neck pillow is critical for an overnight flight or long car rides. I bought a cheap bean-bag filled one, but I am definitely upgrading to the Bucky. It is filled with buckwheat and comes with a handy attachable carry bag. Cool colors too!

Bucky :: 40 Blinks Mask

First to recommend

Description

We tend to travel quite a bit and on planes. We're talking anywhere from 2 - 21 hours. Since first class seats are completely out of the question, affordable travel accessories are what I spend my money on. Several years ago I bought this foam sleep mask that was one of the best purchases. The one I got was a more red-orange tropical flower pattern, but I especially love these (pictured). The foam is ultralight, cool, and contoured for pressure-free, smudge-free eye comfort.

Hable Construction - clover poppy weekender

First to recommend

Description

Hable's new clover poppy weekender is large enough for just about any type of contents or travel. I would consider using this as a fashionable alternative to a laptop bag or camera bag. Great as a carryon tote, beach tote, grocery bag, storage -- you name it! Though it is hard to choose between Hable designs, I really love the bright bold graphic of the clover poppy.

Kymco People 2005

First to recommend

Description

In light of rising gas prices, more and more commuters are turning to fuel-efficient scooters and motorbikes. While the weather in Pennsylvania isn't prime scooter weather year-round, I am definitely seriously considering getting something like the Kymco People (price is right) for work and short errands.
