Sharing some of the things I’ve packed for our Spain trip and Europe adventures this summer.
Hi friends! How are you? I hope you’re having an amazing day so far. Cue the Mariah Carey *it’s tiiiiiiiiiiime* because we’re escaping the scorching Tucson oven before it begins and are off on some adventures. (To be honest, it’s been the mildest spring and beginning of summer ever. It’s been suprisingly gorgeous in Tucson – usually it’s super hot by now!)
I’ll be sure to share all of the fun, what we’re up to, and what we’ve been eating. 😉 Definitely follow along on IG stories, too!
We’re gone for quite a while and have someone staying at our house while we’re away. I also had to haul the guinea pig’s cage to madre’s house (sorry madre lol) because after 7 years Donut is still very much alive.
We’re going to be in a few different places: Barcelona, Rome, Pisa, Provence, and Sevilla, and possibly some other stops along the way. I’ve always wanted to do something like this, and feel so so thankful that we’re going for it. The girls’ schedules are just going to get busier, especially since P is in competitive basketball and summer is typically tournament season, so I figured it was our chance.
Packing took at lot of strategy because I didn’t want to overpack but also wanted to make sure we have everything we needed! Of course, I need to save a little room for shopping finds while we’re out there. 😉
Here’s the great list of things I’m bringing with me:
Spain packing list
Clothes:
The plan is to wear dresses with sandals or sneakers, dressier sandals for evening, and a cute sweater/jacket to layer on top.
Dresses:
Pink shirtdress (it’s sold out in pink but SO MANY cute colors available)
I got a few cute dresses from RTR that I’m excited to bring <— you can use my link to try it free! I love it for travel and events. I also have a cute Splendid striped top and skirt combo from RTR
Somerset mini dress <— the best *everything* dress
Superbloom tapestry maxi dress
Tiered mini shirtdress <— I’ve worn the white one a million times so I got it in blue
Shorts, skirts, and tops:
Layer:
Jean jacket. I might bring my tan blazer, too
Swim/beach:
This coverup (which I also wear over dresses as a layer sometimes, or with shorts)
Athletic wear:
4 gym outfits – I’m just going to wash and rewear while we’re there
Shoes:
Everyday white sneakers (wear on the plane. My other pair was borrowed forever by our child, so I got a new pair)
Planning on buying a pair of cute new flats
Pajamas, undergarments, socks, the not-fun stuff that just takes up room in the suitcase
Carry-on:
Melatonin (for the flight and to help reset my circadian rhythm. I used this last time and had zero jet lag!)
Supplements for a few days
Blue light blockers (code FITNESSISTA)
Chargers
Passports
Water bottle
Snacks
Toiletries (mini toothpaste, cleanser, moisturizer, eye care supplies)
Tinted moisturizer and lipgloss
Change of clothes for all of us
European adapters
Travel humidifier (code FITNESSISTA)
Supplements/health:
All of my daily supplements (customized based on functional testing)
Kids’ Motrin, Oscillococcinum, charcoal binder, and oregano oil
Shampoo, conditioner, sunscreen, lotion
Skincare and makeup
Contacts and packed toiletries
Extras:
Red light face mask. I’l doing it haha
Laptop
Little packs of tissues – good to have one in your purse because sometimes public bathrooms don’t have toilet paper
My pillow. I LOVE my flat pillow and super hard giant pillows can ruin my life. I’m just rolling it up and bringing it
Laundry pods
Dishwasher pods (ordered these and the laundry pods from Thrive Market)
Beach tote
Some things I sadly left at home for weight/room purposes but I will miss them every day. (Putting my codes here too in case you’d like to shop it up)
– The famous sauna blanket and PEMF Go Mat (code FITNESSISTA15)
– Full-sized Canopy humidifiers and shower filters (my code is FITNESSISTA)
– My giant luxe weighted blanket (code FITNESSISTA)
– Lumebox (FITNESSISTA). I really thought i could bring it but I’m nervous about checking it.
I would say my walking pad but I’m about to get in SO MANY real life steps and I can’t even wait.
Nos vemos en España 🙂
