Packing for Colombia was a daunting task. For years I’ve backpacked across Europe and the Middle East, but never South America.
I felt like I was entering a new arena in the hunger games – totally unprepared with blurry expectations.
We’re talking mosquitos, hiking, extreme heat, and remote destinations.
Even after loads of research and personal recommendations from seasoned Colombia backpackers, I still felt like there were some things I needed, and some I didn’t.
My experience backpacking 1-month through Colombia helped me create the most perfect Colombia packing list for your trip.
Don’t forget your FREE Colombia Packing List printable so you don’t forget a single thing!
Here is the Ultimate Colombia Packing List
While this was my personal Colombia packing list for a 30-day backpacking trip, your list might look a little different from mine.
I hope these recommendations will help you successfully pack for your Colombia trip.
Basic Essentials
1. Osprey Porter 46 Travel Backpack
The holy grail of all backpacks. This magical bag will hold everything you need and passes as a carry-on size on most airlines.
I’ve had this bag for years and wouldn’t dare look at anything else!
2. Travelon Anti-Theft Day Pack
My new travel product obsession!
I noticed this backpack on the backs of some fellow travelers and instantly fell in love.
While it may look tiny, this pack is mighty. I use it as my “electronics bag” and it fits my laptop, large drone & remote, DSLR, journal, kindle, passport, wallet, and so much more.
3. Compression Packing Cubes
I’ve always been anti-packing cubes until I ran across the compression kind! These cubes will help you stay organized without taking up any extra space.
4. Lifestraw Water Bottle
Whether it’s Lifestraw or a different brand, I highly recommend getting some kind of filtered water bottle for your Colombia travels.
5. Foldable Bag
I know what you’re thinking.. yet another backpack!? Yes!
This foldable backpack is so tiny that it takes up NO room. It’s worth packing even if you never use it. I use it specifically for hiking when I don’t want to get my nicer bags dirty.
6. Travel Toiletry Bag
Finding a hanging toiletry bag is essential, especially if you are staying in hostels. This bag is compact and has loads of room.
I use it to hold all my toiletries and medicine.
Toiletries / Shower Essentials
7. Microfiber Travel Towel
My personal favorite travel towel. The sizes do run very small so size up (1 or even 2)! I personally have an XL to use as a shower towel and beach towel.
8. Facial Microfiber Towel
A small microfiber towel is handy just to wash your face.
9. Laundry bag
A bag to keep your dirty laundry in is essential! This is something I refuse to travel without.
Most of the time compression cube packs come with these bags, but if not you’ll want to grab one of these!
10. Laundry detergent
At times in remote destinations, it can be tricky to get your laundry done. These Laundry strips help me in between proper washes.
11. Hairbrush
This dainty hairbrush will keep your hair looking fresh without taking up much space in your bag.
12. Manicure Set
Keep groomed while on the road. You won’t want to leave for Colombia without these often overlooked essentials.
13. Small Comb
This is my “nights out” comb. It’s so small it fits perfectly in a purse or fanny pack for evenings out at the club (or a jungle party!)
14. Contacts & Solution / Glasses
Like so many of us, if you aren’t one of the lucky ones with 20/20 vision, pack extra contacts & glasses for the duration of your trip.
You can buy more contact solution at the pharmacies, but it’s best to bring a small pack to last you until you get to one.
15. Friction Stick
This was such a common problem among so many women I was hiking with. I was so thankful that I brought a friction rub! I used it on days I wore dresses and went on long walking tours or hikes.
I’ve used both the Arm & Hammer brand and the body glide, and the Arm & Hammer works much better.
16. Makeup Remover Wipes
These are the only makeup remover wipes that don’t sting my skin. Also, I love how they aren’t liquid-based, perfect for traveling!
17. Facial Cleanser & Moisturizer
My favorite travel cleanser & moisturizer is The Ordinary. Their products come in small sizes and are super affordable.
18. Dental Hygiene Products
Keep your teeth healthy with my go-to dental products.
19. Sunscreen
Believe me, that Colombia sun is meant to BURN! I like to be prepared with just a little bit of sunscreen for when I arrive and buy more when I get to a pharmacy.
If your first destination is a city, sunscreen will be easy to find. However, if you’re heading to more remote destinations in the North or the South, stores are not always accessible.
20. Hair Accessories
As I’ve mentioned. that Colombia heat will get to you. If you have long hair, you’ll need plenty of options to pull your hair back.
21. Chapstick
This is the chapstick I swear by! While it may seem a bit expensive for lip balm, I am a total chapstick junkie and need the very best.
22. Soap + Soap Holder
A bar is my preferred soap to travel with while backpacking. It cuts down on my liquids and lasts longer. One bar of soap lasted me exactly one month.
23. Shampoo & Conditioner
Again, shampoo and conditioner are products you can totally buy when you get to Colombia. I just prefer to have some on hand so I’m not scrambling to find it first thing when I land to my destination.
24. Razor
If you usually have a razor at home, you’ll need one on the road! This razor is my favorite and doesn’t irritate my skin.
25. Small Jars/Bottles
These small containers are great if you want to take your favorite products from home.
26. Medications
Ibuprofen and Imodium are two essentials you must take with you to Colombia.
Be sure to take any contraceptives or vitamins that you take regularly as well.
27. Feminine Care
This is truly one of the most underrated things that should be packed in your bag! What some women don’t know is that feminine care products are different in every country.
Meaning – different chemicals, applicators, and materials.
It’s best to bring some of your own that you’re comfortable with.
28. Health Misc.
Don’t forget these handy items like bandaids and cotton swabs.
29. Germ-X + Lysol Wipes
Don’t you dare leave to travel without some Germ-X and disinfecting wipes!
My personal favorite germ-x is the mini bath & bodyworks scented bottles because they just smell SO good! I also love these scented lemon Lysol wipes to wipe down anything that might be icky.
Your luggage may also need more frequent wipe-downs than usual in Colombia’s dewy climate.
30. Lotion
Lotion may be considered essential for only a select few, but for my insanely dry skin, it’s a must!
31. Small Makeup Bag
I am obsessed with these small pouch bags. I typically end up bringing two of them on my travels. They can really help you keep organized.
One for makeup and one for feminine care products.
32. Condoms
Always best to be safe and prepared!
Shoes
Shoes are probably the most important thing that will be in your luggage.
You can easily buy anything you’ll need abroad, except for your favorite shoes.
I’ve made the mistake of buying a brand new pair of shoes before leaving for a trip and it’s such a mistake! Make sure you purchase shoes with plenty of time to break them in before your departure.
When you’re walking over 10 miles a day, it’s essential that you have comfortable and versatile shoes in your bag.
33. Hiking Shoes / Tennis Shoes
If you’re planning on doing the Lost City hike, then you might want to bring your hiking shoes over tennis. Otherwise, you should be good with just a pair of tennis shoes! I went on four hikes and was happy I didn’t bring my bulky hiking shoes.
34. Comfy Sandals
Birkenstocks fit my style and comfort, but any reputable walking sandal will work.
35. Cute and Comfy Sandals
These Steve Madden sandals are my favorite go-to travel sandal. They are so comfortable and look perfect with sundresses. They also take up hardly any room.
36. Shower / Beach Flip Flops
If you’re planning on staying in hostels or visiting any beaches, you’ll need to pack some cheap flip-flops. Thin classic flip-flops are perfect for taking up the least amount of space in your bag.
Gadgets
This portion of the list will vary greatly depending on what kind of traveler you are.
As I am someone who works remotely, I obviously needed my camera and laptop. If you can live without these things, the less you pack is always better.
37. Unlocked Phone
If you are looking to get a sim card so your phone will work, contact your phone company to ensure you won’t have any issues.
For iPhone users, your phone should be unlocked, which can only happen after you’ve had your phone for six months.
38. Microsoft Surface Laptop
A Laptop might not be essential on everyone’s Colombia packing list but as a digital creator, it was for me.
Microsoft Surface Laptop is what I use. I LOVE how light it is!
39. Travel Adapter
Colombia uses A, B type outlets, which are the same as in the United States. So if you’re coming from a country that uses different outlets, be sure to take this international adapter with you.
40. Kindle
I can’t go anywhere without my kindle! It’s the perfect alternative to packing heavy books.
Even if you aren’t a reader, if you are traveling to more remote parts of Colombia (like the North) you will want to bring something to do that doesn’t require WiFi. I was without stable internet about half the time I was in Colombia.
41. Headphones
Of course, you can’t leave for a trip without a solid pair of headphones.
42. Portable Charger
Being without a phone in a foreign country can be scary. I always keep a portable charger on me.
43. Extra Phone Chargers
I feel like my chargers always break when I’m on a long trip. It’s best to keep just a couple on you.
44. Camera (optional)
As I mentioned, your packing list might look slightly different from mine.
I travel with this DSLR camera and take most of my blog photos with it.
Misc.
45. Passport Holder
A Passport holder is a must for me. I keep my paper covid-vaccine inside along with a piece of paper containing my contact info so that if someone finds it, they can contact me.
46. Personal Alarm
One of the biggest complaints I hear of solo female travelers is that they wish they could travel with pepper spray or a knife to help them feel a little safer.
While most safety tools are not permitted on airlines, personal alarms are! I carry this with me when I’m traveling or going out at home. It helps me feel just a little more secure, especially if I’m walking home alone.
This device works by quickly detaching the top handle if you feel in danger and a VERY loud siren goes off, drawing attention to you.
47. Luggage Tags
Keeping your luggage labeled with your information is essential if it ends up being misplaced or stolen.
48. Light Rain Gear
Whether you’re an umbrella gal or rain-jacket cat – take your pick (or pack both)
Rainy season in Colombia is Aprilto May and October to November, And when it rains, it pours!
49. Writing Utensils
I like to have a pen, pencil, and sharpie when I’m traveling to write in my journal or label things.
50. Journal
Be sure to bring a travel journal to document your exciting trip to Colombia!
51. Travel Insurance
I never leave for a trip without buying travel insurance. My preferred choice is Allianz. However, World Nomads is fine as well.
52. Personal Bag
Having the right bag can make or break your chances of getting your belongings stolen as an everyday tourist.
If you opt for a purse, make sure it has a zipper or clasp that would be tricky to swipe items out of.
Bum bags are also very popular and a great way to keep your phone and money close to your body.
53. Sunglasses
Sunglasses should be at the top of everyone’s Colombia packing list! Protect your eyes from that intense sun with a pair of sunglasses.
Clothes
Every suitcase will look different when it comes to packing clothes for a trip.
I personally hate shorts so I opt for more dresses and skirts, but you might have a totally different style.
54. Here’s a breakdown of what clothes I packed for Colombia.

Colorful colonial buildings line the streets as a whiff of empanada greets your nose and music echoes all around you. Welcome to Cartagena.
Cartagena is undoubtedly the most beautiful city in Colombia.
With its picturesque buildings, nearby islands, and ample exquisite culinary options, it’s no wonder why Cartagena is the most popular city in the country.
I’ve compiled a list of 13 things to do in Cartagena that you can’t miss.
Packing for your trip to Colombia? Click here for my Colombia packing guide.
Where to Stay in Cartagena
There are so many beautiful and affordable accommodation options in Cartagena. I personally stayed at Life is Good Hostel, and would definitely recommend it for backpackers or budget travelers.
One can enjoy Cartagena by doing all the touristy things or by just simply walking around admiring the architecture and feasting on spinach and cheese empanadas (my fav!)
Here are 13 bucket-list things to do in Cartagena, Colombia.
1. Explore the Old Town
Waltz through the streets of Cartagena’s historic old city. Closed in with walls and decked out with colonial architecture, the old town is visually stunning.
2. Monumento Torre del Reloj “Clock Tower”
The original main entrance to the historic city is certainly a statement piece. You can find the famous clock tower between Plaza de Independencia and Plaza de Los Coches.
3. Plaza de la Aduana
After you’ve passed through under the clock tower, turn left to be greeted by the largest open space in Cartagena; Plaza de la Aduana.
While there are several plazas and parks in Cartagena, I thought this one was the most beautiful.
Also, it’s worth mentioning the bank of Colombia is located here, so it’s a secure spot to use the ATMs located inside.
4. Take a Free Walking Tour
Free walking tours are my favorite way of getting to know a city.
Of course, with walking tours, you’re always expected to tip at the end of the tour. In Colombia, it’s customary to tip around $10 for a 2-3 hour tour (40,000 COP cash only).
5. Book a Boat Excursion
I was skeptical about booking this boat excursion because it was quite pricey, but it was highly recommended to me.
So, I decided to try it out and it ended up being one of my favorite days in Cartagena! This boat excursion is well worth the price.
6. Eat at La Cocina de Pepina
Recommended by the locals in the neighborhood of Getsemani, this little restaurant is a must-try.
I had the Posta dish, which is a traditional dish that Cartagena is famous for. During my 1-month in Cartagena, this restaurant was the best. I still catch myself drooling over the rich and saucy Posta.
7. Party at Alquimico Bar
Rated one of the best clubs in South America, partying at Alquimico is a must!
Featuring 3-levels, including a swanky rooftop, you’re guaranteed to have a fantastic night out.
Try to arrive before 10 pm on weekends to avoid the line (you’ll be waiting for hours!)
8. Visit the Getsemani Neighborhood
Venture outside the old city walls to the more authentic (and artistic) side of Cartagena.
In the neighborhood of Getsemani, you’ll see streets lined with food vendors, music, and art murals.
I personally think that the food is better on this side of town!
9. Abaco Library Cafe
For a tasty cup of coffee and a studious scene, check out Abaco Library.
There isn’t any wifi at this cafe so prepare to..read!
10. Visit a Nearby Island
The Rosario Islands make for a great escape from the city. I visited Isla Grande and the beaches were spectacular. Other island getaways close to Cartagena include San Andres or Baru,
11. San Felipe Castle
San Felipe Castle was built in 1536 and has been an iconic Cartagena landmark ever since. Seeing this fortress is one of the top things to do in the city.
12. Visit a Rooftop
Cartagena is famous for its rooftop views.
Cafe Del Mar offers one of the best views in the city. However, if you can’t score a spot at the famous cafe, there are many other rooftop options.
Movich Hotel, Sophia Hotel, and Townhouse Boutique Hotel rooftops all offer gorgeous city views.
I took this photo at Sophia Hotel. We weren’t even guests and the rooftop technically wasn’t open yet but they still let us in! They are so friendly.
13. Eat Street Food
The street food scene in Cartagena is seriously tasty. Try an empanada or an arepa from a food stall in Getsemani or inside the old city.

Paros is a must-do on your Greek island-hopping itinerary.
Much like one of my other favorite islands, Ios, it offers the beauty, cuisine, and culture that many famous islands do but without breaking the bank and fighting crowds.
This is a true greek-island getaway that will not disappoint. If you don’t believe me, just check out these stunning photos of Paros.
Where to Stay
Parikia or Naoussa are where you’ll want to stay.
Parikia is cheaper and more authentic. Best for longer stays, backpackers, and budget travelers.
Naoussa is considered the main touristy part of the island. Best for short stays, main tourist points, and luxury hotels.
Regardless of where you stay, the bus system is great so it’s very easy to get around the island. Alternatively, you can rent a car.
I personally stayed at Paros Backpackers in Parikia and loved it.
Looking for what to do in Paros? Here are 14 things to do in Paros.
1. Paros Park
An adventurer’s haven. With 800 acres of protected seaside, you’ll find hidden coves, hiking paths, secret beaches, and a lighthouse.
I hiked to the lighthouse to watch the sunset and it was the highlight of my trip!
2. Santa Maria Beach
A beach lovers’ paradise! Santa Maria beach is one of the most commercialized and popular beaches in Paros. It offers sunbeds, beach bars, sandy beaches, and turquoise waters.
3. Naoussa
Naoussa is the most popular village in Paros. With its stone alleys and vibrant flowers, it’s easy to see why Naoussa is one of the biggest tourist hot spots on the island
In the center of Naoussa, you will find many hotels, bars, shops, and restaurants.
4. Panagia Ekatontapiliani Church
Located in Parikia, this beautiful monastery is one of the best paleo Christian structures in all of Greece. Legend has it, the church was constructed by Saint Constantine.
5. Kolymbithres Beach
Kolymbithres offers a unique beach experience. This beach is known for its large boulders and unusual rock formations.
6. Naoussa Old Port
Stroll alongside the old port of Naoussa where you can see the fisherman, boats, and seaside restaurants.
7. Parikia
Parikia town is my favorite village on the island. It offers cheaper prices, more authentic Greek culture, and nightlife.
8. Party at the Dubliner
By far the best club on the island! This is where the backpackers and locals go to have a crazy night out.
9. Antiparos
Right next door is an island called Antiparos.
Antiparos is a tiny little island that has shops, beaches, and restaurants.
There are boats that depart from Parikia and will take you to the island in under 20 minutes. Antiparos makes a perfect day trip.
10. Lefkes
Once the capital of the island in the middle ages, Lefkes is a small village that is worth a visit. Grab an ice cream from the town center and walk around the picturesque village.
11. Dinner at Little Green Rocket
Little Green Rocket is my favorite restaurant in Paros. Located in Parikia, this waterfront restaurant offers fresh dishes that blend Mediterranean and Asian flavors.
12. Antiparos Caves
If you are looking to spend a full day in Antiparos, visit the Cave of Antiparos. This cave is filled with interesting stalagmite formations.
13. Go to a Beach Club
Beach clubs are popular! I went to Punda beach club and enjoyed cocktails, sunbeds, pools, and the sea.
14. Watch a Sunset
Obviously, you can’t visit a Greek island without capturing a stunning sunset! Some of the best spots to see the sunset are rooftops, beaches, or the Paros Park Lighthouse.
Have an awesome getaway and be sure to save this post for your trip.

This post is all about dining at La Pecora Bianca Bryant Park in New York.
There are two things I rarely regret splurging on; food and travel. However, my dining experience at the La Pecora Bianca in Bryant Park left me unsatisfied and broke.
After recently moving to the big apple, I was excited to have my first girl’s night out.
We chose to dine at La Pecora Bianca because it’s super cute and well, pasta and wine are always a great way to start out the night.
La Pecora Bianca in Bryant Park Dining Experience
Our reservations were at 8:15. After checking in, we were informed our table wasn’t quite ready yet but would be momentarily. Around 8:40 we thought that maybe they had forgotten about us.
We checked in again and asked if could get a glass of wine while we continued to wait, and the host just pointed us to the bar. Not to be a total Karen, but we definitely thought that after waiting an additional 20 minutes with no word from the host, we at the very least would receive a complimentary glass of wine while we wait.
Finally, we got our table at 8:50, over 30 minutes past our reservation time.
Drinks and Appetizers
Our server greeted us promptly and answered any questions we had.
I ordered the Whipped Ricotta and a glass of the Pinot Grigio.
Our appetizer and wine arrived quickly.
The whipped ricotta was drizzled with honey and served with thick bread. All the flavor combinations complimented each other really nicely.
Pasta Entree
Next was the Cacio e Pepe. I definitely have had better pasta. I was torn between ordering the Cacio e Pepe and Ricotta and wished I would’ve gone with the latter.
The Bill
Total, my portion of the bill was $78 which included two glasses of wine, half an appetizer, pasta, tax, and tip.
While this is by no means a bad restaurant, I don’t feel like it was worth $80.
Is La Pecora Bianca Bryant Park Actually Worth a Visit?
It’s a safe option if you are looking for a cute restaurant in a good location. However, don’t prepare to receive the best meal and service of your life.
There are certainly better restaurants in New York, but it can serve as a convenient dining option if that’s what you’re looking for.
Overall, I consider La Pecora Bianca in Bryant Park basic and expensive.

Planning a trip to Greece?
Greece is one of those places that I can’t ever seem to stay away from. I’ve spent months hopping around the Greek islands and exploring the ancient sites of Athens.
At this point, I’d consider myself an expert on Greece travel. If you’re looking for the perfect outfits for Greece, there are a couple of things you’ll want to consider.
Comfort should be the number one priority. You’ll be walking a ton and if you’re going any time between April – October, it’s going to be pretty warm. Summertime can be scorching hot!
However, it’s no secret that if you’re galavanting around the Greek islands, you’ll want to look cute. Light and airy clothing and a comfy pair of sandals are going to be your lifeline.
Here is a list of 19 trendy outfits for Greece that I’ve carefully curated for a traveler who wants to be comfy and stylish during their epic Greece vacay.
This blue and white combo will match the iconic bright blue and white Santorini churches. Dress this for the day or night, whether you’re exploring bookshops in the Chora or eating a fancy dinner on a hilltop.
