10 Items Kellee Edwards Loves to Travel With

Travel and adventure journalist Kellee Edwards has journeyed more than 200 miles along the Peruvian Amazon to visit remote tribes, searched for mummies in Alaska, piloted a Cessna 172 along Australia’s Kimberley coastline, and gone cave swimming in Fiji’s Yasawa Islands. “If you’re the least bit curious about experiencing something, that’s the perfect reason to do it,” she says. “Who’s to say you’ll have the chance to do it again? Life is for living, not contemplating and overthinking.”

Pre-pandemic, the host of the Travel Channel’s Mysterious Islands and, more recently, of Travel + Leisure’s “Let’s Go Together” podcast traveled at least twice a month for her projects or for fun. For now, she welcomes the opportunity to explore within the U.S. and to her third trip to Alaska, one of her favorite adventure playgrounds.

Here, ten items Kellee Edwards doesn’t leave home without:

  • My Lo & Sons O.G. 2 holds everything I need for flying and is perfect for taking to meetings as well.
  • Une Piece Sexy Rashie is UPF 50+, protects my arms, and comes in a great mix of solids and patterns.
  • The Patagonia Nano Puff is compact, warm, and travels well.
  • I organize gadgets, cords, and toiletries in Isaac Mizrahi mesh pouches.
  • I wear a red lip on all my adventures, and Fenty Beauty Stunna lip paint lasts throughout the day.

Kellee Edwards' favorite items to travel with, including Fenty lipstick, a Yeti backpack, and more.

 

  • I use the latest GoPro, the only camera that can go anywhere I go by land, air, or sea.
  • Garmin’s InReach Explorer+ satellite communicator lets me send a text from anywhere in the world to let loved ones know I’m OK. Hi, Mom!
  • Rest & Renew satin pillow protectors help me avoid bed head.
  • The Yeti Panga backpack 28 is waterproof and extremely durable.
  • An EightyFiveEightySix mesh sling bag holds smaller essentials for quick access on the go.

The Best Restaurants in Cartagena, Colombia: What and Where to Eat on a Budget

Image
During our month in Colombia, we were blown away by how good the food in Colombia was.  It took us totally by surprise – Colombia wasn’t the country in South America that we were most looking forward to eating our way through. But it turned out to be our favorite! Colombian food is wildly varied depending on region, and all of it is delicious (you can read all about it in our post on the best Colombian food ). But our favorite food in Colombia is found in Cartagena de las Indias, a colonial Caribbean coastal paradise with a dark history and a flourishing present day. We discovered the best food in Cartagena and ate as much of it as we could at some of the best restaurants in Cartagena – the ones that fit our budget, of course. We had a full 2 weeks to eat our way through Cartagena, but you can take a shortcut by booking a food tour like this one or this one. Here are our tips for what to eat in Cartagena, Colom...

Fantasy Fest: Key West’s Crazy Street Festival

Image
Fantasy Fest in Key West Key West, Florida Want to learn about the best-kept secret for street celebrations in the United States? It’s a wild 10 day costume party in October called Fantasy Fest in Key West, Florida. If I had to describe Fantasy Fest in one sentence, I’d say it’s Burning Man meets Mardi Gras for Halloween on a tropical island. Except in a place where you can also stay in a beautiful B&B surrounded by ancient banyan trees. A place so diverse that gays, bikers, pirates, artists, strippers and entrepreneurs are the norm, living a motto “One Human Family.” A place where you can watch the sun both rise and set over the ocean every day. After knowing about the festival for years living in South Florida, I finally made it down to see what all the hype was about with my blogger friend Steph from Travel-Break.net. Our week was incredibly fun, absurd, and liberating all at once. Need A Place To Stay In Key West? Click here for great accommodati...
