The most Important thing to pack for your Hotel !!!!

I spend half of my life living out of a suitcase,
or so it seems.
I unpack one group of clothes to repack another!
Always on the go!

And of course, like everyone, I have most essential things that are a MUST GO
and a few luxuries too!
But what I consider a must go and a luxury you may not have even thought of ...yet!

The thing I cannot live without is unglamorous, so common, that it took me years to before it changed my life!!!

What is it you say????
It's my European Extension Cord!

Not expensive, this one cost less than 8 euros! 3 metros long and 3 plugs! 
(don't forget to bring your adaptors)

But oh what luxuries it brings!
I have don't have to charge my phone, my iPad, or Air Book half way across the room
and hope that I don't step on them in a middle of the night toilet run....
Nor do I have to try to see my hair in the black screen of the TV as I curl my hair...
cause the electrical outlet is placed in such insane places that no one could ever use it!

Just go by your local hardware store (Darty, BHV, Zola Color, Brico) when you arrive in France and get one for yourself....you'll thank me later!
You're welcome!
