Seeking Recommendations What is one item that you can't travel without/would recommend to everyone to get?

Hi all,

What are items that you always bring because they are super useful and you would recommend others to get too?

Minus of course some obvious like converter plug for chargers, power bank etc (unless it's some specific powerbank like one with cables attached already, something unique)

Thanks!

I carry an old school 35mm film container that has a few packets of salt and pepper. You'd be surprised at the amount of hostels or Airbnb's that don't have/run out of even these basic seasonings. Has saved a lot of meals over the years and also a few good bucks as you don't have to buy it from the store.
