Beach Medz, Tech Mishaps & 10 Must-Have Travel Gadgets for the Season
How would you feel if you were relaxing and holding a medz—just you, the sea breeze, and the rhythmic pulse of waves—when boom! your phone crashes?
I was on the beach one evening in my little Jamaican paradise, watching the fishing boats sway in the tide as the sun dipped low. The sky was golden. The sea air carried the scent of salt and seclusion. In that moment, I was deeply present, pondering life’s vastness, feeling grounded and grateful.
Then click. My tripod toppled. (see the video on YouTube)
It barely touched the water, but something—sand, salt, or sneaky sea moisture—crept into my phone’s charging port. It wouldn’t charge. No matter how I shook it, prayed over it, or blew on it. My phone, my camera, my communication, my lifeline—dead. I kept getting a warning: USE A WIRELESS CHARGER. I didn’t even know those existed. I sacrificed my phone so you would know about it. You are welcome.
Thank goodness I was able to order this Satechi Qi2 Wireless Charging Pad. It saved the day! Until the moisture dried out (which took days), this sleek little gadget kept my phone powered with no cords, no drama, just effortless magnetic alignment.
But that moment taught me something: you can’t travel with vibes alone—you need the right gadgets, too.
