The Captain’s Travel Bag.

We’ve seen a few posts labeled “What’s in my suitcase” and “What’s in my purse” and decided that we needed to switch things up a bit. What really happened is that Chris dumped out his satchel as he was looking for a pen and we realized the sheer amount of crap useful items that he carries.  It’s no wonder he always gets flagged by TSA every time we go through security.  Take a look and let us know what you would think if you saw these come out of someone’s bag.

Inventory:

Behold, in front of you lies the treasure trove of tokens that Chris carries with him at all times.  We have…

One compass

One RODE external microphone
Extra rubber bands for RODE external microphone
One boatswain’s pipe “whistle”

Yup, that’s all.  You better believe that we’re pretty much prepared for anything.  Don’t even get me started on what he keeps in his pockets.

What do you always carry with you when you travel?  We’d love to know in the comment section below.
