If you have a trip to Salem, MA on the calendar and are looking for some items to bring along, I have you covered. Today on the blog we have five Amazon.com purchases for your visit to Salem, MA. I got this idea from a blog post I wrote in 2018 called \u201c10 ways to document your visit to Salem, MA<\/a>\u201d and basically decided to expand on it. Please note some of the following may be affiliate links<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A travel journal<\/a><\/h3>\n

If your visit to Salem is a \u201conce in a lifetime\u201d type of thing, you might want to bring along a travel journal. In it you can write everything you did each day, what you ate, your favorite parts so far, etc. It also makes a great spot to to store your ticket stubs, receipts and more. You can either just tuck them inside or even tape them to the pages.<\/p>\n

External battery for your cell phone<\/a><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re someone who heavily uses your cell phone, this might be a good option to have in your bag. I carry mine often, especially when I am wandering city wide events because I know I\u2019ll be snapping pictures, working on social media and more. The link above is the one I personally have and use.<\/p>\n

A shadow box<\/a><\/h3>\n

Along the lines of the travel journal suggestion, this is a good option for keeping your Salem memories safe. Collect your ticket stubs, receipts, Polaroid-style pictures and more then hang it on your wall.<\/p>\n

Fujifilm Instax mini<\/a><\/h3>\n

If you want to capture some memories old school, this Instax camera is a great idea. You can also use some of these prints in the above mentioned shadow box!<\/p>\n

Snap on cell phone camera lens<\/a><\/h3>\n

I mentioned this item in my 2020 update of the most Instagrammable places in Salem<\/a> and wanted to include it here too. Having a snap on lens for your phone can up your picture game significantly and allow you capture memories in a more dynamic way.<\/p>\n

I hope this helped and hope you have an amazing visit into Salem. Feel free to tag me in your pictures on social media, I love seeing what you guys all get up to. Enjoy!! <3<\/p>\n
