It’s no secret that cannabis is becoming more and more mainstream every day. As it becomes more accepted, people are starting to use it in a variety of settings – one of which is travel. Whether you’re going on a road trip or flying somewhere, there are a few things you should keep in mind if you plan on bringing your weed with you.
When you’re traveling, it’s important to pack light. But when you’re a stoner, that can be a challenge. You need to pack your pipes, your grinder, your weed…the list goes on and on. So, what’s a stoner to do? Here is a checklist of the essentials you’ll need when hitting the road.
A Dry Herb Vaporizer
If you are someone that likes to travel, and you travel pretty often, then the best thing that you should pack is a dry herb vaporizer. If you aren’t aware, dry herb vaporizers are devices that allow you to vaporize cannabis, rather than using a method like combustion to smoke them. Brands like magicvaporizers.co.uk state that one of the reasons why dry herb vaporizers are the first choice for many stoners is the convenience that they offer.

Depending on the device that you want to take with, dry herb vaporizers can be extremely portable and easy to use in a pinch, especially on-demand dry herb vaporizers, or vape pens.
A Bubbler
Bongs would have been a nice addition to the list, but when traveling you are going to need something quick and easy to use, and with the size of bongs, this isn’t always possible. This is where bubblers come in since they are effectively mini bongs.
A bubbler is almost like a hand pipe in the way that it operates, if it wasn’t for the fact that it’s essentially a miniature bong. They are small, easy to conceal, can fit in most backpacks, and offer the same experience as a bong. This makes them a great pick for someone who still wants to keep things simple and traditional.
Rolling Papers
If you are a stoner or someone that is going to be smoking weed whilst traveling, it’s of the utmost importance to always pack a ridiculous amount of rolling paper. You might be thinking “but I am not going to smoke that much weed”, however, you will still need it.

You never know where you are going to be when in a country or city, and there might not be shops close by that sell rolling paper, and you don’t want to be stuck without. More than this, if you have never rolled in the wind, you would be surprised how easy it is to lose rolling paper.
Grinder
Another essential item that you have to take with you when you are traveling and planning on consuming cannabis is a grinder unless, of course, you want to be smoking chunks of cannabis, and struggle to roll a joint.
These days there are many grinders on the market, and there are many different designs. When traveling, you are going to want to find something that is relatively small and can fit into a bag without taking up much space, but you should also look for something that can grind a reasonable amount of cannabis.
An Excessive Number of Lighters
What is the one thing that every stoner always manages to lose, even when sober? Lighters. Lighters are one of the most essential items to pack if you are going to be smoking, since how will you smoke when you don’t have anything to light with?
This is even more important if you are traveling with friends since we all have that one friend who slides the lighter into their pocket never to be seen again. Combine that with trips outside to smoke, and being in the car now and then when going from one place to another, and lighters will get lost.

Edibles
Finally, if you are looking for a discreet way to consume cannabis, and be able to hide it in plain sight, then the best thing that you could do is pack a few edibles with you.
Many airports don’t think twice when you have snacks with you, and since edibles are food items, you can put them in your snack bag. This is even better when out on the town since edibles can be something like small gummies, they can easily fit into your pocket without anyone noticing.
