My husband and I are one week into a three-week European trip. We’re each traveling with only a backpack and a carry-on size suitcase: a bit of a challenge.
Traveling without a laptop helps. Instead, I’m using my iPad and wireless keyboard. The combination makes it possible to answer emails and write blogs. Sort of. (In writing this post, I lost one draft, and sent out an unfinished one.)
Apps that have been useful: Kindle (of course), Google, Google Maps, Skype, Dropbox, Evernote, Notebook (by Circus Ponies: I use this software at home). And 1Password. I’ll soon try out Pages and 1AWriter for word processing.
My travel-to-Europe-in-October rule of thumb: always pack silk long underwear!
Have fun! It sounds delightful.
Thanks, Lilian! I do love Paris.
The Kensington brand sells an iPad cover with built in keyboard, very handy and less of a drag to carry it all. I found that in an Apple store in Victoria BC Canada, and imagine you can find it at other places as well that sell Apple products. Have a fun trip.

Sounds great, Johanna — I’m going to give that some thought!
