I am not leaving home without these items.
If you’ve listened to the latest Satellite Sister podcast, you know I am planning for some international travel. I can’t disclose the location for fear that my parents may see this blog, you’ll just have to listen to learn the location. I want to share what’s in my personal travel kit for the trip.
Here’s what I am packing:
1. Ace bandage for my notoriously wobbly ankles; 2. iodine for cuts and in a pinch, water purification; 3. and 4. Pepto Bismol and Imodium for all things gastro; 5. a flashlight; 6. hand sanitizer ( I planning to bring a lot for me and to give out as gifts); 7. Cipro; 8. Zyrtec and Sudafed for my sinuses; 9. Antibacterial cream; 10. Cough drops ( which really help in highly polluted areas); 11. Aleve for pain; and 12. Kashi bars
I also read that duct tape can be used for puncture wounds so I may toss a roll in my bag and I am hunting for some dental cement in case I crack a filling and need to do some home dentistry.
I know SisterSpotters travel near and far so I would love to know what is in your personal travel kit.

This is not the view from where I am sitting now, except that it is what I am looking at on my laptop. Isn't that a nice little break from actual work? It's called Casa Palopo in Guatemala.
Help me, Satellite Sisters. I have a new online vice. It’s not what you are thinking. No sex or gambling. I am addicted to the new breed of membership sites that send me deals every day on exotic travel. Who needs a watercooler and co-workers to waste time with when you have sites like JetSetter? Just when my energy begins to flag after lunch, I can click right over to their latest email and see how much money I will be SAVING if I book their special deals to hike the Amalfi Coast or attend Amansala Bikini Bootcamp in Mexico RIGHT NOW. Of course, I would never really DO either of those things (they sound exhausting), but as pick-me–ups go, it’s better than eating a candy bar.
What’s your online vice?
For the record, subscribing to Satellite Sisters on iTunes or joining our Facebook group does NOT count as a vice. (Search on The Satellite Sisters.) Those are totally good uses of your time.

Three sisters, three times the fun. Tune in to today’s Satellite Sisters show and you’ll get fresh talk on some of our favorite topics:
Julie Dolan may no longer live in Moscow, Russia but she still collects beefcake photos of Vladimir Putin for the International News Round-Up
Julie’s International News Round-Up (Vladimir Putin beefcake photos!) , Lian’s Campaign To Stamp Out Customer Service Injustice (To the barricades, sisters!) and Liz’s ongoing connection to Larry King. (Liz + Larry Forever.)
Want to hear Satellite Sisters shows from earlier this summer? We got ‘em right here and you can subscribe at iTunes.
Liz Dolan and Larry King may be locked in a battle of wills forever now that Ryan Seacrest is involved.
