This part of our Roadtrip Essentials series is all about your safety and about some useful and helpful stuff that we store in our van or take it along to our surf trips. Of course the list is not complete, but we see these items as really “essential” must-haves, having experienced regular facepalms when we again forgot one or two or even more of them. So hopefully this post will help YOU not to forget them on your next trip!

As the roadtrip season is approaching, we start our series of Roadtrip Essentials. Here are our ultimate personal road trip must-haves. On different tours around Europe, they have been tested and approved, sometimes forgotten, “aaahhh, we should have brought…!” and intensely been missed. So here is part one of the things you should not forget to pack in the category Style and Gear.
