Hi all!!
I wanted to start a thread sharing information with each other on our best packing tips. What do you pack to make your trip great and comfortable for you? How do you pack to save room and weight?
Some things we like to do:
-Pack old items to throw away after using them. For example, I got a new after shower robe for Christmas so I am bringing my old, ratty one on our honeymoon, then chucking it when we depart for home. I also usually bring, use, then toss an old hair brush and razor.
-Pack a refillable, filtered water bottle. This saves us money on water bottles as I just fill it at water fountains and the bottle filters it. Surprisingly, it also filters the horrific taste of Florida water.
-Roll, not fold, clothing to save room
What tips do you have for packing effectively?
Thanks!
