Welcome to Tech4Trek
Welcome to Tech4Trek, the website dedicated to all your travel needs, whether you are off for a weekend jaunt or a full time nomad warrior! We look forward to helping you with all your travel needs for gear, gadgets and services, like chargers, adapters, laptops, cameras, converters, cell phones and plans, sim cards, luggage, packing gear, blow dryers, health insurance and so much more.
I recently became “homeless,” put all my stuff in storage and am traveling the world. As a super-organized Type A packer, I prepared like crazy for this trip, researching every last detail for how to live on the road and decided to turn all my hard-earned experience into a website. I travel with other nomads, am involved with dozens of road warrior type social groups and am constantly taking feedback from everyone on the ‘best of the best’ travel gear.

The Ultimate Travel Packing List
Want to see my top list of what I did before my 18 months on the road? What worked and what has already broken? From health insurance to power adapters to travel chargers…here’s what’s in my bag:
Most Powerful Travel Hair Dryer – Insider Tip always start it on low in a new country until you understand how the electricity works in that country. Use the plug ends to move the voltage – dial is a bit hard to turn. Don’t let the size fool you – this little baby fits in the palm of your hand, but it’s as close to a full size blow dryer as you’re going to get. So far, it has worked great in Asia, Europe, Africa and South America!
