Pack Lightly

Filed under: Travel — Laura Moncur @ 6:46 pm

I have fantasies of travelling with only a backpack on my shoulder, but I always end up with a car full of “necessities.” Here is a helpful list to keep your packing lighter.

Here is a condensed version of their tips:

  • Think it Through
  • Make a List
  • Know Local Customs
  • Heed the Comfort Factor
  • Keep Transit Plans in Mind
  • Do the Wash-and-Wear Math
  • Make Your Clothes Work Hard
  • Watch Your Colors
  • Practicality Rules
  • Follow the Weather

I rarely take a LONG trip in which I have to worry about more than a couple days’ worth of clothing, but I DO have a list that I tend to follow when I’m packing so that I don’t forget the important things. I’ll share that with you tomorrow.
