GREAT video!! i am also a designer and illustrator on deadlines so i am carrying my things around with me 😂 a tip that i generally give to people that are not that good at taking out the gadgets on the security part is to carry all your electronics on a tote bag, so you can just empty the tote on the security tray and then after you pass it, store it on your backpack, fold the tote and voilá!

Wish that I was able to take another class from you this year. Your classes are the greatest!!

I loved seeing all your travel accessories! I'm so tempted to get a phone strap, I see so many people using them. I've travelled a couple times through Europe this summer and I loved the airports where you keep everything in your bag through security, I think Amsterdam was one that did. My newfound travel hack is using an old make-up pouch to keep all my charging cords in for my devices. I keep it ready to go at all times so I just gotta grab the pouch and throw it in my carry-on and it has all the chargers I need, instead of having to pack them all each time. I hope you're enjoying your time stateside! 😊

Abbey, I finally got to meet you at Stationery Fest. You are just as amazing in-person as you are on YouTube. Keep up the great work. I enjoy all your content.

Hello Abbey! Can I just say I videos like these I love learning about different people's takes on travel journalling and the various supplies people have for travel journaling. Thank you for your amazing videos!!! <3<3

Abbey, great video again! Thanks. My go-tos for traveling are my bible-sized PLOTTER, 11 " iPad Pro newest version with click-on keyboard so I have a mini-MacBook with me and a selfie-stick.

I laughed out loud when you said the pen coozy makes your pens feel like they’re flying first class 😂 I LOVE IT!

[DreamyNightOwl]

Aww so cute! I love Cari Cakes! What a fun shoutout

Thanks for the video! I'm looking forward to your workshop at San Francisco!

[aiscahill]

Thanks so much for this video. I’m really curious - what backpack do you use when you travel? I’m looking for one that feels spacious and sturdy enough for all of my tech and other things when I’m travelling and can’t decide on which one to buy 😊

[cherylclough]

I’m thinking about that phone holder. Not only for me, but maybe Christmas presents for my granddaughters. I noticed your backpack in your photo shots. Can you share what it is? Or have you done it and I missed it?

[zoeyteh]

Hi. Thanks for sharing but I can’t find the Skillshare link.

[MindfulVespers]

So lovely to have met you again, Abbey! I’m annoyed I didn’t ask for a selfie but hopefully I’ll get another opportunity soon … maybe SF Pen show?? Thanks for your lovely, gracious aura. 🙏🏼🩷🙏🏼
