Vacations are wonderful! Packing for vacation? Decidedly less so. It takes time and it takes some concentration. Choosing what to bring, trying to prepare for all contingencies, and getting it all to fit into the ever shrinking luggage size requirements of modern air travel is no easy feat. A business trip may come up last-minute, leaving little time to arrange a great traveling bag. When you travel, whether for work or vacation, packing is always something you want to take a little extra time double checking.

Why does it seem like there is at least one vital thing you forget to pack each time. What a shame that it is almost always remembered right when you have reached a point of no turning back. The image is clear in your mind—you can see the item exactly where you placed it in your bedroom, right on your nightstand.

Ideally a joy but often a chore, travel is an essential part of modern life. We travel for business, for family get togethers, for summer holidays and for so much more. But traveling can involve long hours of being in transit in a vehicle or airplane which can make it strenuous and boring. Thankfully, Convenience Kits International makes traveling easier and more enjoyable with their wide range of travel kits designed to meet all of your travel needs. All you need to do is to choose from their thoughtfully organized collection of personal care items, shampoos and conditioners, oral hygiene and shaving items, deodorants and accessories and select your perfect travel kit to your custom specifications. And when you run low, CKI makes it simple to replenish your supplies as you need them. On the other hand, Convenience Kits International knows that one size does not necessarily fit all,  and you may prefer to create your own custom kit, so they also create a provision for you to build your kit using TSA Compliant travel sizes.

The 4th of July is the holiday when Americans celebrate the birth of the experiment we call America. Sure the British might just label it “unruly colonies day” but Americans take pride in their steely resolve and fierce independence. To celebrate, they’ll be taking to the road this week for destinations of revelry from sea to shining sea. Whether it's a trip to D.C. to take in the monuments of the nation’s capital or a camping trip to take in the great American outdoors, travel and the 4th go hand-in-hand. So if you’re planning a 4th of July road trip you’ll want to be sure you don’t leave the house without all of your essential basics - including the one hygiene product you always seem to forget. With a comprehensive pre-packed travel kit, you’ll never have to worry about forgetting any essential item again. The bears might not care if you forget your deodorant, but the family you have to share a tent with will thank you for grabbing your kit before you go.

The world is an amazing place and some of its greatest beauties are often a ways off the beaten path. From camping, hiking, fishing, hunting and beyond, hitting the great outdoors has become a global passion that has only grown in popularity since city dwelling life has increased. While the benefits of ditching rush hour traffic for clean air and blue skies are pretty universal, the truth is that not everyone embraces the rustic nature of outdoor life. Many dislike the void of modern conveniences and, for others, the wildlife - from bugs to bears - is a bit too much. However, with a little prepping, a trip outdoors doesn’t have to be a return the Stone Age. One can enjoy the beauty of the great outdoors while keeping up their personal hygiene as if they were staying at the Ritz Carlton hotel.

It is perhaps a misnomer to call this product luxury given that most only cost a few bucks. Then again, the problem this product solves has such unparalleled convenience it sounds like something one might expect to cater to those who can easily buy a solution to any problem. Convenience Kits International has made travel, hygiene and social outreach easier than ever before. While the products themselves solve an immediate problem for any traveler, it is the social impact that makes this organization truly unique. The same type of products they might sell to the well-off business person flying in first class are also available in many forms for the homeless, downtrodden and needy. Luxury convenience and social impact have met at a unique juncture and I think you’ll see why below.

To say that travelling can be a stressful experience would be an understatement. To say that travelling through a modern airport is like swimming in the ocean, or better yet, the Dead Sea, after repeatedly nicking yourself shaving would be putting it lightly. Let’s face it, anything and everything that makes this experience a little easier is worth its weight in gold. Throw in a couple of screaming kids and an overly touchy feely TSA agent and you might  literally pay gold for anything that can bring relief. Thankfully, a king’s ransom is unnecessary. For just a few bucks you can pick up the most common sense item that every traveller needs. In fact, it makes so much sense it might actually be genius. The hygiene travel kit is the most obvious thing you’ve never thought of before, but once you do you’ll never go back.

That’s why we’ve put together this guide to help you get in the right mindset for an amazing trip that will also save you a few hassles along the way.

It's already March.  If you're in business, Q1 has almost come to a close (did you hit your goals?).  The year is rapidly flying by and, for students, that means it's time for a break.  Not just any break though, THE break of the year. 

Spring break is the time for students of all ages and levels to unwind and forget about school for a week, sometimes more.  No more pencils, no more books, no more teacher's dirty looks, you know the song.

Typically, when you think about spring break, you think about droves of scantily clad students flocking to paradise-esque locations ala Florida, Hawaii, or the beaches of Mexico.  Movies have been made about it, social media posts glorify it and, when you're a student, you live for those moments and memories.

It is not only about crowded airports, tiny airline toilets, bad food and cramped airline seats. Travelling; waiting in line, transfers, airport layovers and everything that goes with it is frustrating and sweaty and after days on a long way journey, or after a full day, of negotiating trains, airport and baggage claims you will not be your freshest.  It goes exclusive of saying that staying for too long with sweats is uncomfortable not to say unhygienic but there is no certain way to kill off a holiday romance before it has even started than by being unkempt and smelly.
