Irene Going on a trip? Whether it’s for a long vacation or an overnight trip, you should do your best to pack the lightest bag possible. Keep in mind that you would be lugging it around with you, most likely wherever you go.
Step 1: Do your packing way before your actual travel date. This will prevent any errors in packing caused by stress (who wouldn’t be stressed if you’re packing for a trip that will start TOMORROW?!) Step 2: Resist the temptation to bring everything in your closet, thinking you “might” need them somewhere along the way. Step 3: As much as possible, use only one piece of luggage or bag. Step 4: Avoid bringing bulky electronic equipment.

Irene Learn how to effectively and efficiently pack your suitcase for a trip to the beach. This way, all you have to think about is how to have the most fun with the sun, sand and the water!
Step 1: You will need to put this on the bed: a sturdy suitcase with big outside pockets, a pen & a notepad, and clear plastic bags. Step 2: Make a calendar of your holiday – plan out the activities you will have on your vacation. You can also make a list for shoes, clothes and accessories; for grooming products and toiletries; and for miscellaneous items. Step 3: Be realistic with regards to what kind of clothes you need to bring. Compare the list of your clothes with your holiday calendar, to see if the clothes match the activities. Step 4: Start preparing the items and put them on the bed. This way, you can actually see the items you will be packing. A great tip – if the items do not fit in the bed, they won’t fit in the suitcase either. Step 5: Start packing the clothes – light items can be rolled to avoid creases and to save space. Don’t forget to take a light sweater for chilly nights. Step 6: Pack footwear in clear plastic bags so they don’t mess up the other items. Step 7: For toiletries, try bringing one product that can have multiple uses. It’s also a great idea to bring miniature bottles of the products. Pack these in a clear plastic bag before placing them inside a toiletry bag. Step 8: Take a small first aid kit with all the essentials with you. Step 9: Place underwear and other delicate items in clear plastic bags as well. Step 10: As you pack each item, check it on your prepared list. Step 11: Pack your jeans and trousers at the bottom of your suitcase, along with other heavy items.
