I do not use one wallet for every trip. I use a three-wallet system. One wallet handles daily carry, one handles foreign currency, and one handles higher-risk travel where security matters more than convenience.

I started wearing Injinji toe socks to stop blisters while running. Now I wear them constantly for travel. They look odd, but they are one of the best upgrades I’ve made for long flights, walking-heavy days, and all-day comfort.

The Kindle Paperwhite has earned a permanent spot in my one-bag travel setup. Here’s why I’d replace it almost immediately if it disappeared tomorrow.
