The NEW Hitha On The Go

HOTG home page

I feel like I’ve been pregnant with triplets. And one of my babies was just born.

Bear with me a bit.

Hitha On The Go, in the 5 years I’ve been writing it, went from hobby to side venture to a mental child. While it started as a blog, it’s evolved to something more in the past year.

And it needed a new home to reflect that.  This is that home.

Working with Victoria and Lisa on developing the site design and functionality was akin to pregnancy. Wednesday night was the equivalent to labor.

And now I’m a proud website mama, cooing over my digital child obsessively.

I’m not going through every single detail, but I want to give you a tour of three specific features that will have you packing perfectly. Just in time for Thanksgiving…

TRAVEL TIPS

Travel Tips page

There are a lot of Travel Tips on the website. And before, they were a pain in the ass to find.

Not anymore. Travel Tips has its own page, complete with filters to help you with your exact travel woes – packing, in-flight, and so on. You can also see all the tips on this single page, in an elegant grid view.

Now, if you need specific packing advice…

VIDEOS

Videos page

…you can find it in my videos. All the packing videos I filmed with About.com and Divine Caroline are right here, and easy to search for by item type (clothing, toiletries, etc) and trip.

For the guys who read the website – I have videos for you too :)

STILL need more help?

PACKING GUIDES

Guides page

By far, the most daunting part of the website relaunch was the creation of these packing guides. But it was worth every minute.

If you have no idea where to start when it comes to packing your clothing or toiletries, these guides are your salvation. We break down my packing process in easy-to-follow steps to prep you for ANY trip.

We go deep – step-by-step packing instructions, detailed packing lists, recommended items, sample packing lists. Consider how much you pay in checked baggage fees. These guides will get you packing a carry-on for the rest of your traveling life. For less than the cost of a crappy airport meal.

These packing guides have been a true labor of love. Everything I know about packing, I’ve put in these. And there’s a lot more to come.

Welcome to the new Hitha On The Go. New look. New packing and travel content.

Same old Hitha.

Thank you so much for all your support. Without you, there would be none of this.
