Travel Tuesday: In Our Cubist Era

Ask any of our friends: If we ever find something we like, we obsess over it.

Sometimes it’s a singer.

(Damn, just typing that and we have “Pink Pony Club” stuck in our head again!)

We dare you not to have this song stuck in your head now, too.

Sometimes it’s an Andrew Christian underwear sale.

(We have two overflowing drawers to prove that point.)

Uh-oh, it’s another sale!

And sometimes it’s simply a really cool product—even if it’s not new to the market, but new to us.

So, what’s our obsession du jour?

Monos Compressible Packing Cubes.

These cubes will change your vacation life.

As notoriously bad over-packers, we often struggle to get everything we want into our suitcases in an orderly fashion.

Late last year, we took a meeting with Destination BC, Tourism Whistler, and Destination Greater Victoria about travel opportunities in 2025.

As a thank you gift for meeting with them, they gave us a set of these made-in-Canada packing cubes.

We took more than 35 trips in 2024 before we received these cubes. Until we used them for the first time on a December vacation, we had no clue what we were missing. Or how we ever traveled without them.

Not only do these cubes make it easy to organize various clothing components and accessories, they’re ideal for trips where you’re changing hotels often and don’t want to completely unpack everything each time you settle into a new room.

Or like a few weeks ago on our annual winter New York City trip, our hotel room had extremely limited storage (and zero drawers in the whole place!).

So, the Monos cubes really came in handy. We could stack them on shelves and pull them down when we needed underwear, sweaters, or sequined feather boas to hit the town. You know, all the essentials.

Purchase these at a discount, and everything on the Monos site, with the Valentine’s Day promo code, FORTHEM. Find them in sets of four or six.

We’re confident if you’re not already using travel cubes that once you start, you’ll never look back.

And if you’re like us, you’ll want to order even more so that every piece of luggage you take on vacation has stuff tucked neatly into nice little compartments.

Because in all other aspects of our life, outside the box is more our style.
