Charles Schwab debit card (unlimited ATM fee reimbursements)
U.S. passport card (better than carrying my actual passport or driver's license everywhere)
backup credit card and debit card
ARZOPA portable monitor
laptop stand / monitor stand
Logitech wireless bluetooth keyboard
Marchway lightweight packable camping chair (for beach)
SIM card carrying case
stuffable day pack
Xiaomi Redmi 10 smartphone (my burner phone with local SIM card)
large supply of condoms (must less expensive and better quality in USA)
Philips Sonicare travel electric toothbrush
large supply of Gas-X and Pepto Bismol
extra toothbrushes (for overnight guests)
Adidas Ultraboosts (or some comfortable shoe for lots of walking)
sunscreen (touristy beach towns price gouge)
plastic compression bags for clothes

Because I split my time between the USA and nomading, I find it's easier to own duplicates of everything that I use on a daily basis. Two razors, two computer chargers, two two tubs of hair gel, etc. The items designed for travel just stay in a box at home when not in use. Dramatically reduces the chances that I forget to pack something for the trip.

What brand condoms do you prefer? I find that Durex ribbed in magnum size works pretty well for me.
