On January 11, Princess Leonor took a significant step in her military training by embarking on the 97th Training Cruise aboard the Training Ship Juan Sebastián Elcano.
This five-month voyage, which will take her across the ocean, represents both a physical and mental challenge for the heir to the throne, who, despite her youth, faces this experience with the seriousness that her position demands.
Princess Leonor’s luggage on the training ship Elcano
This weekend, Princess Leonor was photographed taking a large suitcase on board Elcano before leaving Tenerife and heading to Gran Canaria. What items was she carrying?
Among the essential elements that the princess takes with her on her adventure are the Navy uniforms that every midshipman must wear: summer, winter and dress uniforms, along with sportswear for daily activities.
In addition to these garments, there is no shortage of items such as a cell phone, a computer and, of course, her favorite perfume, a personal detail that has accompanied Leonor for years.
Since she was a little girl, much has been said about her predilection for Nanos eau de cologne, a fresh and soft fragrance, ideal for her daily routine.
Both she and her sister Sofia have used this product since childhood, and today it remains her favorite choice.
The perfume, characterized by delicate hints of peach and orange blossom rose, is a light scent, without the intense concentrations of traditional perfumes, making it a perfect choice for long days at sea.
In addition, its invigorating properties make it even more special, offering not only freshness but also skin pampering.
The days of Leonor in Tenerife
The day Elcano docked in Tenerife, the princess took the opportunity to rest and walk the streets of the island, being seen by the citizens, who were surprised to meet the heir to the throne in such a relaxed and close atmosphere.
During her stay in Tenerife, Leonor also fulfilled her official and personal obligations, preparing for what was to come: the continuation of her journey to Gran Canaria and, later, to Brazil.
The ship, after setting sail from Tenerife, continues its voyage to Gran Canaria, where it will remain until January 23, to then set course for Brazil, where Leonor and the rest of the midshipmen will live new experiences at sea, while the princess continues to perfect her training and face challenges that will undoubtedly mark her future.
