Traveling to Europe with a baby might feel overwhelming at first, but the right packing strategy makes all the difference. After a week in Portugal with our six-month-old, I’m sharing exactly what I packed: carry-on, checked bag, and the essentials I’m so glad I had.

Comporta had been on my bucket list for years, and after finally visiting, I understand why people love it. Just an hour outside of Lisbon, it offers a slower, more relaxed side of Portugal. Sharing my favorite parts about it as a luxury travel advisor traveling with our six-month old baby girl!
