We’re Lauren and Brian Kelly, the duo behind “It’s the Kellys” — a YouTube channel all about traveling in a carry-on!
Lauren has now been to 109+ countries and all 7 continents– all in a carry on bag!
We’re passionate about seeing as much of the world as we can — and doing it all in a carry-on.
But unlike most travel vloggers, we’re not digital nomads. We have full-time careers we love, a teenager at home, and a mortgage to pay. In other words: we’re just like you!
We simply choose to make travel a priority — because making memories and experiencing new places matters to us.
And we want to help you do the same.
Whether you’re searching for the perfect carry-on bag, building a travel-ready capsule wardrobe, or looking for practical travel tips — we’re here to help you travel smarter, lighter, and more often.
