Aloha!

Like many here I have traveled extensively. Actually, outrageously at times. I was on the road for decades far more than I was home.

I travel with a travel strop and always have. I leave my good 3" strop at home. I have a shorter 2" travel strop and a small barber hone that I carry with my straight razor.

Someone mentioned hanging the strop on the security latch-hook on the hotel door. Most have these latch-hooks although that's changing as new locks are implemented. The nice thing about hanging your strop on these is that you CAN'T forget it. It's handing on the mechanism you have to unlock to get out of the room.

The newer and more upscale hotels that don't have these have me attaching the strop to a hanger in the closet. Works great, you just need to remove it and put it in your luggage so you don't forget it.

I've scaled WAY back on travel. I spent decades away from friends and family looking out a hotel/airplane/car window. That's not a lifestyle I enjoy much these days.

Mahalo!
