This is my second year to attend South by Southwest and there are so many things I wish I wouldve known or done better my first time around! The frenzy of conference sessions, networking opportunities, parties and more pretty much drained not only myself, but all my devices simentaneously. Whether your a veteran or a first timer this list will help deliver an exceptional experience during your time in Austin. SXSWi will be sure to be a blast, but make sure to follow these tips if youre going to stay charged for the entire six days.  7 Travel Must-Haves for SXSW Juice Pack This is always #1 on our list because its probably the most important thing to have at a conference like this. For me, I use my Mophie Space Pack Powerstation Duo. These two devices have kept my phone charged throughout the day without me having to struggle in finding an outlet like the other hundreds of people who flock around the convention center for that coveted spot. With a device like my mophie im free to go wherever and whenever without worrying about that 20% battery notification. Day saved. Starbucks We all know this is on everyones must-have list for SXSW. You not only start your day with meetings or an early conference session, but you end your day at 3-4am after networkingerrrpartying all night. Be sure to grab a starbucks giftcard and download the app before you head over to Austin for ease of use. What am I saying? Were all pros here, we should know this! Hand Sanatizer Lets face it, people are gross. I dont want your germs and Im sure you dont want mine. Lets keep the world a cleaner place and use sanitzer everywhere. With this many people in one defined area we want to make sure that no one gets sick. If youre sick, dont come. I dont want you sneezing on the doorknob that im opening to get to my next conference. That is all! .ai-rotate {position: relative;} .ai-rotate-hidden {visibility: hidden;} .ai-rotate-hidden-2 {position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;} .ai-list-data, .ai-ip-data, .ai-fallback, .ai-list-block {visibility: hidden; position: absolute; width: 50%; height: 1px; z-index: -9999;} Comfortable Shoes If youre a veterans you should already know this, but for newbies, dont leave home with comfortable shoes. Youre staying right next to the hotel you say? Doesnt matter. Youll be walking all over downtown Austin looking for the next big party. Networking at night will be tremenedous and comfortable shoes will go along way in making sure you have the best and most productive evening. Hangover Remedies Yes, you will have hangovers and you might even feel like death a few times. Bring plenty of hangover remedies to make sure youre 100% for the next day of conference sessions and parties. Not sure what to bring? Blogging4Jobs has you covered! All you need to do is attend our Social Siesta Party on Saturday March 8th to receive an exclusive Hangover Remedy Kit! Were on a waitlist, but were opening more spots up next week! Mini Essentials Kit Sounds weird right? Lets say youre far away from your hotel and you dont have time to run back and freshen up before a party or dinner with a potential client. Be sure to pack plenty of travel sizes in floss, breath freshener, deodorant towelette, pain relievers, tampons, hairspray, nail polish remover, etc. Its important! Stay clean and fresh all day long at SXSW. You dont want to be that person that everyone talks about. Nice Travel Bag I hate traveling when Im cramming and overloading my travel bag. Make sure to have a big enough purse that isnt heavy so you wont get tired of carrying it around or a laptop bag thats comfortable strapped around you for long periods of time. It happens, youre walking all day long and constantly moving. Dont get tired with a horrible bag. .ai-rotate {position: relative;} .ai-rotate-hidden {visibility: hidden;} .ai-rotate-hidden-2 {position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;} .ai-list-data, .ai-ip-data, .ai-fallback, .ai-list-block {visibility: hidden; position: absolute; width: 50%; height: 1px; z-index: -9999;} So what did I miss?
