The AmiGo Edit 21: Curated by Kerrilynn Pamer

An essential in my toiletry kit, serotoner is the skincare product I always wanted. And when I couldn't find it, I decided to create it myself. The ultimate travel companion, this hydrating mist is infused with desert botanicals to calm and soothe skin on contact. I spritz it often during long plane or car rides and incorporate it into my skincare routine at my destination. Packed full of nourishing botanicals, serotoner keeps my sensitive, reactive skin healthy and happy, especially amidst the time, temperature, and stress fluctuations of travel.

Mexico City is one of the most magical, colorful, and romantic cities I’ve ever visited. Earlier this year, I was lucky enough to go, and I’m already planning my next trip. One of the highlights was the food, with Comal Oculto topping the list. The restaurant serves classic Mexican dishes, and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had—no exaggeration. If you’re in Mexico City, I highly recommend making a reservation. Don’t forget to order the enchiladas for me!

My morning routine always includes a cup of matcha for a boost of calm and focused energy, which is why I’m never without our CAP matcha. To make my favorite ritual travel-friendly, I created these individual matcha sticks for seamless enjoyment on the go. Sourced from a small organic farm in Japan's Shizuoka region, these vibrant green sticks are rich in minerals and antioxidants, helping me feel my best wherever I am. I always keep a few in my purse, travel bag, and car to ensure I’m never without my daily fix. They also serve as a great mask when mixed with a bit of honey (snag some at a coffee shop) or even water. Make a paste, apply it to your face, and feel the benefits of a quick, easy-to-travel-with, antioxidant-rich mask.

One of my favorite neighborhood spots in LA, Found Oyster is a New England-style oyster bar in East Hollywood. I absolutely LOVE their French fries, which are fried to perfection in a dedicated gluten-free fryer. The oysters, sourced from Massachusetts, are incredibly fresh, and the crispy shrimp and daily vegetable specials never disappoint. Plus, the staff is fantastic. If you’re in town, Found Oyster is a must-visit.

Made in Tuscany with soft nappa leather and an organic cotton lining, The Pouch by Porto is my carry-on of choice thanks to its spacious, elegant, and streamlined design. Functional yet sophisticated, it holds all my essentials in a chic, cloud-like shape. I love that it easily tucks into a larger tote, can be worn crossbody, and doubles as an elegant purse for exploring while traveling. Simply put, this bag is perfection.

Based in Paris, Monica Mendal highlights so many incredible destinations that I want to visit, especially across Europe. With a background in writing for fashion and travel magazines, she has a knack for uncovering off-the-beaten-path gems. Her exquisite taste spans restaurants, shops, museums, hotels and more. I highly recommend following her for inspiration when planning your European adventures.
