Jetsetting Just Got Real! Travel Like a Queen Using the Shelfpack

Updated on Leave a Comment on Jetsetting Just Got Real! Travel Like a Queen Using the Shelfpack

Travel Like a Queen Using the Shelfpack!3

Traveling is fun its the packing that sucks. We obsess over every detail and every look. Do I have enough shoes? Are there equal amounts of day and nighttime wear? My god please tell me I packed enough undies! With Shelfpack all of those worries can be reduced. Shelfpack is reinventing the art of packing.

Travel Like a Queen Using Shelfpack

Okay so what is so great about this piece of luggage. It looks like any other bag on the market. That is until you open it up. The Shelfpack does exactly as it sounds. It comes complete with shelves. It is the portable closet you’ve always dreamed of having!

After unzipping you simply pull up two supports and follow with the shelves. The shelving secures itself at the top of the supports. This drastically cuts down on messy packaging and allows an user to be more organized. Want to see the Shelfpack in action? Check out this short video which gives a few more details along with the demonstration.

Specs and Worries

We always like bad news first so lets get any worries out the way. This innovative piece of luggage weighs 14.5 pounds. Any traveler knows that on a plane weight counts! Weight equals more money. Therefore, definitely something to keep in mind.

Also, although the video shows an easy transition of the shelves into place it doesn’t show the return of everything back into its original form. Nevertheless, there does seem to be an ease to assembling the Shelfpack so maybe it is all about practice.

One thing we also liked is that this product comes complete with a Lifetime Warranty. Warranties always help to calm the mind when making a purchase. This product is very out of the box so its nice to know you are covered just in case.

Miss Michigan 2015 Review

“I’m on the road more than I’m home and I’ve found this suitcase to be a life saver. No more digging to find things. No more wrinkled beyond recognition gowns. Everything fits PERFECT and I can even leave staple items on their shelves and I’m ready for the next adventure. I get so many questions about my bag and I am happy to show how it works! What an AWESOME invention for people like me! Thank you!”

WhenWearGo: Ruins Of Pompeii

Updated on Leave a Comment on WhenWearGo: Ruins Of Pompeii

It’s hard to believe that Pompeii was a bustling town with running water, brothels, bath houses and many more modern convinces. When you walk through the streets you just feel overwhelmed by how many people died in the wide open streets of Pompeii just because they did not heed the early warnings to flee.

Exploring the fascinating ancient ruins of Pompeii you see the destruction of Mt Vesuvius’s massive eruption thousands of years ago. This ancient Roman city that was entirely destroyed by the sudden eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79 AD and is marked as the largest archaeological site in Europe.

As you meander through the streets you are able to walk through the mansions of the wealthy people of the city. It’s unbelievable, you can still see the artwork on the walls, walk through their gardens and check out their sleeping quarters.

What you learn about this city is that the who’s who of all wealthy Romans lived here and since it was a port town many sailors lived in the city. This meant that a lot of prostitution was going on. Their are even clues and markers on the street to direct the young men to the ladies of the night and from the looks of the paintings and fresco on the walls things were very erotic in the town of Pompeii.

So traveling to Pompeii was incredible to see this two thousand year old town with mount Vesuvius in the backdrop is a spectacular trip and well worth visiting.

WhenWearGo: Hike to the Cave of Munits

Updated on Leave a Comment on WhenWearGo: Hike to the Cave of Munits
Over the weekend I decide to hike to Cave of Munits at the El Scorpion Park in West Hills California. The hike is pretty tame to begin with. However it is hot as heck right now in California and their isn’t much coverage on the trail. The first real obstacle is when the elevation changes and the trail gets really steep and the rocks are very loose. So you will need proper shoes for this trail like good hiking boots.

Once you get up this loose steep heel the adventure really begins. Their is some climbing involved to actually get into the cave. So if you have never done any type of rock climbing please bring a partner who has, cause it can get quite dangerous. I am so happy I wasn’t by myself because it was quite tricky finding footing as some points of the climb and my shoes really sucked. Their was no grip so I was at the mercy of gravity that almost won if I didn’t have a supporting hand going up.

Yet with all of that I made it. Thank God!! It is truly amazing once you get inside the cave and was definitely worth it. Will I go again. Maybe not cause I’m not a big rock climber and this is probably child’s play to most climbers but I have no upper body strength. However if I go back with the proper shoes and more climbing experiences It could be worth it because the views are outstanding.
