Dear Constant Reader,
Today’s tips are all about packing!
Maximize space in your suitcase *and* keep your clothes from rumpling by rolling your garments into tight little sausages.
This doesn’t work so well for, say, a blazer, but it’s fantastic for a pencil skirt or t-shirt.
Stuff your underwear and socks into your shoes.
You’ll save space and your shoes will keep their shape.
Put your toiletries in individual ziptop bags.
Obviously, you should make sure all the containers are capped tightly. Just in case, seal them in an extra layer of protection, so if something does leak, neither your clothes nor your other toiletries will be covered in goo. Snack or sandwich size bags should be fine — you should be bringing travel-sized items anyway.
