An American Mom in Asia

I probably break all the minimalist packing guide rules when it comes to tech gear. We are media nerds, and utilize technology so much in our work and in our fun. So here’s all the crazy gadgets we are traveling with [yes, still carry-on] during this 5 month adventure through Southeast Asia! We love making videos of where we travel and why we travel. I’m a social media nut. And all these things require gear! Almost all of these items are time tested, travel worn and loved by us! Hope this helps inspire future media travelers with putting their gear together.
