I have to take my vanity case packed with essentials, such as skin care(all types)

For the actual travel part, two that have been mentioned--moisturizer and toothpaste/toothbrush--and a sleep mask. I don't recommend the mask while driving however.

I also take postcards of where I'm from to use as Thank You notes.

In terms of outfits, I'm horrible. Either way too little or way too much but never damn right.
