Inside my carry on bag

Previously, I showed you a picture of my hotel room during a short business trip. Today, I will share with you something personal once again.  I will show you a picture of what is inside my carry-on bag.  You will get a glimpse of what I carry around during my business trips. The bag that contains what I call "my business life".

Perhaps, after you have seen this, you could share what is inside your bag, as well. 

What is in your bag?

If I have enough time to check into a hotel before my meeting, I use my Samsonite Swerve Laptop Bag. However, if I need to go straight from the airport to the meeting, I use my Pratesi Ladies' Computer Bag.

My travel carry-on musts are:

  • 15.4" Sony VGN-FS315S Vaio Laptop, an extra battery pack, power cord and a logitech mouse.
  • Firewire cable, my 60GB iPOD mini, USB stick for back-ups and my Motorola Razr mobile phone
  • One file folder filled with hard copies of everything that I may need during the trip.
  • My office chip, a mini make-up case, travel documents, wallet and business cards with case/calculator

When I travel long-haul, a few more munchies are added to that pile.

The tweety bird PEZ dispenser is my blogging muse from KMM.  It will be the new addition to the pile. Ready for my next trip.

Now, it's your turn. Don't be shy. Tell or show me what is inside your carry-on bag.

Idea shamelessly copied from Michael Hyatt.

Thanks for sharing, Brian.

I've always wanted a laser pointer but, I never did get to purchase one.

Ugh! A pen! More often than not, I am always caught using hotel pens because I always lose or forget mine!

Melissa, thanks for the good read.

The Discovery Story had some great pens with laser beam pointers for about $10, and I am sure finding that a welcome addition too.

I would never have purchased one this nice but they gave them out as the attendee gift at the Project Conference this year! Oh and the only reason I had a pen is that I took one from the hotel about 20 mins before posting my comment! :-)
