1 – Love the twenty-nineteen theme thus far 😉

2 – I really did go through this post and add no less than 5 items to my Amazon wish-list–especially that extension cord + USB charger combo. I need that ASAP.

3 – Thanks for coming on the podcast this morning, Matt!

As soon as we hung up, I took the subject of Gutenberg back to my blogging group in an attempt to sell them on switching over! It’s a work and progress. Lots of folks still a bit scared/hesitant, partially due to what it’ll look like to update *existing* content that was built with the classic editor.

I’m stoked for the 5.0 release though 🙂

Ciao!

You can get them online in a few places, in person if you’re ever routed through SIN (most of the electronics shops stock CARD products), and I believe TUMI also sells a white-labeled version at a higher price point.

Never thought I’d basically fall in love with a travel adapter, but here we are!

Fair enough. I’ll see about doing some hands-on testing. 🙂

If I can make a suggestion, now that you’re becoming a hippie…I keep a little hacky sack in my travel bag. It’s a great way to make new friends a get a bit of exercise out on the road.

I haven’t had any problems but can’t say I know enough about electrical systems to vouch for sure.

Darn I’ll keep that in mind.

Uniqlo! They have amazing light and puffy jackets with no logos.

Question: Does the Native Union hub work well with the international adapter? I learned the hard way (blowing out the power in our Airbnb..twice) that USA surge protectors don’t work with 220v adapters.

First line should have started “:halloween-pumpkin-emoji: treat!”

Any additional light jacket recommendations? Something that didn’t quite make the cut or is your alt?

Julia recently switched from Fitbit to Apple watch, but like you the daily charging is a real turn off. She likes to wear it all night to understand her sleep, and there Fitbit also has the best UX. She has a separate Garmin watch for swimming. I’ll keep waiting to ditch carrying my phone, waiting for better voice call experience and podcasts, audio books, and other heavier storage based experiences.

great job! you should get the best whats in my bag award!

I would love to see a video of you organizing your sub-bags and how you pack your stuff

Agreed, Tom Bihn bags are great! I wrote up a review recently of my Synapse 25

The Aer bag has lots of sections and pockets! Also I try to go for sub-bags with different shapes or textures.

Never had a problem with them yet! There’s nothing sharp in them. Although if you do want to get something handy through, check out this Swiss Army card:

It’s ginormous! Definitely still getting used to the larger size, but the screen really is beautiful, I don’t notice the notch already, and the camera is fantastic.

1. Love the Wapuu Pride sticker, was elated when a colleague gave me one at least year’s GM.

Question: How’s the transition from Pixel 2 → 3 XL? I currently have the 2 XL, have been contemplating switching to the 3 or 3 XL. Concerned by the notch.

I have not! But will keep that in mind when I try a new backpack. The Aer has really great zippers, it’s just the Lululemon jacket which isn’t good.
