Diaper Bags Are a Traveling Woman's Best Friend ...
Recently I was in the Arctic with a tour group that consisted of travellers from all over the world. Chatting with one of the women she told me that she had read my 'diaper bag' tip a long time ago and it was the best travel tip she had ever received. I had forgotten about that bit of advice written so long ago so I've decided to resurrect it.
Every traveling woman deserves a stylish diaper bag or two.
'But,' you say. 'Why not use a backpack for travelling?'
'Because' I say. Here's seven reasons why:
 |
Wear a backpack and everybody quickly identifies you as a tourist and that includes the social deviants and pickpockets who are out to get you. |
 |
On a walk in Paris or Rome or Madrid you want to look stylish in your wraparound dress and matching cardi, don't you? A smart looking diaper bag slung across your chest and resting on your hip looks far better than that rugged backback you take camping. |
 |
Unlike a tote bag, the diaper bag lining is often white and allows you to easily identify what you have in the bag. |
 |
A good diaper bag always has multiple pockets inside and out so you can organize 'your stuff.' |
 |
The interior compartments designed to hold baby bottles upright will hold that bottle of water you will need to keep yourself hydrated. |
 |
An inexperienced tourist wears their camera around their neck. A smart traveller keeps it hidden in her diaper bag. |
 |
Finally, every diaper bag has a plastic change mat in it. That mat becomes your seat should you decide to rest anywhere and watch the world go by. |
Happy stylish traveling, everybody!
