Are you having headache of packing
too much which ended up disorganized, burdened with heavy bags?
“Pack
everything you think you will need and get rid of half of it”.
Here are my
great tips on packing light to enjoy your perfect holiday trip without backpain
!
1. Roll,
don't fold.
Always complaining of your wrinkled clothings ? Roll your
clothes into tight tubes. Tightly rolled clothes take up less space than folded
ones and reduce wrinkles from fold creases.
2. Make a
packing list
Start your packing process
days before or even weeks ahead ( if you are planning for a long trip) before your departure date .Creating a packing list
is a fail-safe way which ensure you never, ever forget to bring important
documents or items such as PASSPORT and BOOKING FLIGHTS! However ,don’t just bring everything but
consider the necessary and essential items . For example grabbing many
travel guides and books from tourist centre is a big epic failure for most backpackers
as
all these books and guides take up a lot of spaces and add unnecessary weight
to your back.( Now you can understand the reason of your backpain )
3. Wash your
clothes on the road
Laundry facilities are one of my favourite parts when staying
in vacation rentals or backpacking hostels where I can wash and wear just a few
clothings for my long travel trips.
My ultimate tips : I
always bring along my travel-size packet of laundry detergent which is handy and
easy to clean my clothings and a laundry
bag to separate my dirty clothings on the road. I also put an odor absorber to
keep my clothes fresh
4. Use
packing aids
My all-time favorite packing aid: Eagle Creek Compression
Sacs. Use them to shrivel your clothes into a vacuum-packed, tight bundle that
takes up minimal suitcase space. Packing envelopes and packing cubes also help
you to organise your stuff better too ! Hence, you don’t have to complain all
the times that you don’t have enough space to keep your things !
