Holiday Preparations
Since there is a lot of amazing things that require you to be outside let’s be prepared. From hand warmers to gloves and more here’s a little guidance on what to pack for colder adventures in or near the city. Check out my Amazon store for more.
So let’s have some fun but let’s also be safe and warm. Always leave the house with a charged phone, a portable charger, and the above items. If you own a car have a portable tire pump, extra clothes, an emergency kit, and emergency money. Happy Holidays!! May your holiday be all you need to be!
