Yeah, I tried that, but ran into the issue of having to keep track of all the extra bits of equipment, etc. that I had to travel with. For every extra flash drive, ear bud, phone, pad, network gadget, etc. there's a small finite positive probability that it will get left in a hotel room or banged up bad enough that it won't work. For each one, it's a small probability, but in aggregate, it becomes an issue.
OK, here's another way to keep it safe: buy a vanity domain and set up a small website. Have a hidden, password protected subdirectory that you can use to stash sensitive material in.
Or, if you really want to be clever, have an extra partition on your hard disk that's not normally mounted. When you need the secure files, mount it at ~/Documents/extra, or something. The really neat thing is that you can have other, innocuous files stored there; you just won't be able to access them when that partition's mounted. (You can even encrypt that one partition if you prefer, but having your whole file system encrypted is just holding up a big, red sign telling everybody that you have something to hide.) If you prefer, of course, reverse this: have that partition normally mounted, containing the dummy files and the souper seekret stuph only available when it's not mounted.
