Pack Up! 7 Travel Essentials For That Vacation With Your Boyfriend

A vacation with your boyfriend can be big deal. No pressure, but this could the time to learn things about him that you would’ve never known.  And it could be lots of good things, and some bad. But hey, spending time with your SO when you guys are out of your comfort zone usually brings out a side of them that you would’ve never seen.  You’ll know if he’s not particularly inclined towards saving water if he leaves the water running while he brushes his teeth. Or if he spends more time on his hair than you do, then you know you’ll need more mirrors.

Packing for these vacations can be quite the task, especially when you want everything to be perfect. Deciding on what to take for the trip with your boyfriend and leave the extra baggage behind (pun intended) can be crucial. Here are 9 things that you definitely need to take with you whether you are going skiing in the Alps or are going to be sipping mimosas at a beach in Maldives.
