Packing carry-on only is the way to go. I did 5 countries in 30 days in Europe this summer with carry-on only, sink washing along the way and a trip to a laundromat about half way through the trip. Packing light made it easy to move between cities. Like you, I bring home memories rather than souvenirs.

I've traveled with carry-on luggage for over a decade. I take the same amount of clothing for a four day trip to NYC as I do for a 6 week trip to Europe. I just plan on doing some laundry (I add a pouch with a stretchy clothesline, 6 clothes pins, and powdered laundry soap, or a bar of Dr. Bronner's soap).I use packing cubes, but I roll my camisoles and undies and place them on the bottom of the suitcase in the crevices between the handles. I also put my socks in my shoes to help the shoes maintain their shape. If I am traveling with my husband, we split our clothes between the two carry-ons, just in case we're forced to check one--this way we both have some clothes if the checked bag goes walkabout.

In 2019 we went to London for a week and later to Italy and France for 3 weeks - four kids in tow ages 17, 16, 13 and 7 - and each of us was allowed one carry on only bc I hate baggage claim and have lost luggage before. I have been asked by many moms how do you pack so light and my answer is always "if we really need it, we can buy it" (medicines, some piece of clothing, etc) so I would rather only bring what we need. I pack socks inside the shoes to save room and I pack liquid detergent pods in a small 1C size Tupperware (Tupperware keeps them from smashing and exploding). While I do not slave over laundry when we travel, we have four kids so it piles up fast. We usually stay in apartment/condo type accommodations with a washer and I usually do one load each night and hang to dry (no dryers in much of Europe so no laundry the night before you leave or you'll be lugging heavy wet clothes on the plane). In Rome, Italy we found the best wash and fold service and on the 4th day we took two carry-ons filled with clothes and picked them up clean and folded in two hours. We also did cheat on the way home by buying a cheap carry-on suitcase for the souvenirs and we checked that bag going home. If it got lost, we lost nothing that we didn't live without before the trip!

Hi Robin - thank you so much for this great video. I’m sure it will help so many. Many years ago when I first started having to travel on my job with a large chemical company I made a huge mistake the first time. I was going to be gone for a week and I took all kinds of clothes and all kinds of shoes and it was horrendous. From then on it doesn’t matter how long I had to stay in work I would take one or two pair of black pants, Black shoes, black blazer and some different tops and scarves. Also if I bought any souvenirs or anything like that I would go to the local post office and mail them back to myself. Many stores will also do that for you then it was a fun surprise when they were delivered because I had forgotten i even bought them. Ha ha. I am late to the packing cube game. I just used them for the first time last Mother’s Day and I was so delighted with them. Since then I have convinced several of my friends to buy them also. You didn’t say where you were going but I hope you have fun and are safe. Love in Christ.

My husband and I have travelled internationally several times, yet I must confess that I have never even considered travelling with just a carry-on and a personal item. Still, I always pack too much stuff. What a great idea! I often visit my daughter who lives clear across the country from me, about 4200km away, so I might actually try this approach next time to see if I can manage with less. I LOVE the way you have organized all of your clothes in those little bags. Great idea! I recently purchased a lightweight jacket, very similar to yours -- it is perfect for travelling! Regarding souvenirs: I always aim for purchasing either a charm for my Pandora bracelet (if we visit a major city) or an ornament for the Christmas tree! Both are lightweight and inexpensive, Every year when I decorate the tree, I have a lovely keepsake to go along with my memories. I agree with you about taking pictures because those are the things that you tend to look back at over and over again (some trips I have taken as many as 3,000 photos 😳).

Yes in Europe inc the U.K. you are allowed 1 piece of cabinet luggage only. Any personal luggage such as a handbag needs to be able the fit into your cabin bag. The rules are becoming increasingly restrictive and the usual measurements now are 45x36x20 unless you are a prime flyer when I think it goes up a massive 10 cms lol. However it’s amazing how little you need to last a week and the lack of choice makes it easier to choose. Especially when flying to the sun. Don’t bother taking anything you can get and leave at your destination eg shampoo, conditioner, mouth wash, hand soap, body wash and lotion. Or get a bar of very mild conditioning shampoo and use that head to toe in the shower. Sunscreen can be your extra moisturiser during the day and a big bottle of aftersun or aloe vera from the local shop is all you need for nighttime routine. Don’t bother with perfume and stick to the fresher scent of body care. You only need a couple pairs of knickers, preferably on their last legs and you can leave behind. If wearing socks eg for a walking holiday you only need 1 pair of merino socks for the whole week being antibacterial and anti smell. You only need I bra, and 2-3 tops inc tanks + 2 shorts. If you’re going swimming the shorts can be cycling shorts along with a tank for that unless you want to pose. Remember to wear your heavy gear such as trainers or walking boots and jeans on the flight plus a 100% cotton jumper or cardigan or merino wool which is cool in the summer and warm in cooler weather. Take your solid form make up if possible as all liquids eg mascara and lipstick and gloss has to go in the 20x20 cm in a see through sealable bag. Only 10 items slowed of no more than 100mls each and a total of 1000mls. I would suggest micellar as one of these items. Also some arnica for aches and pains if you’re not used to walking. Nail varnish and remover can be purchase items at your destination. Also don’t forget to have an up to date prescription for your medication. This wee lot and a sunhat and sunglasses plus 1 pair sandals and I pair of flip flops and you are ready for your holiday ….. enjoy 🤗

In Europe, weight can be an issue for carry-on. European airlines usually have a strict limit, for example: on Air France, carry-on + personal item bag must not exceed 12 kg (I know because I thought 12 kg was only for the carry-on, and had to pay a fine of 40 euros for my personal item bag ). Others can limit the carry-on bag to 8 or 10 kg. Before boarding, the staff usually looks at the bags and if they look bulky, they can ask you to fit your carry-on bag in an iron frame, and if it doesn't fit, or they find out it's too heavy, you have to pay a fine. As a regular European flyer for decades, I've learned to weigh my luggage carefully before leaving for the airport. Also if for some reason there are too many carry-ons for the flight, they have the right to select a few to have them travel in the cargo compartment with the big suitcases... I've seen it happen several times.

I also wish you had said what time of year you were packing for because that makes a difference.

I do swear by packing cubes and I loved watching how you put them together. I’m always curious what people wear crossing the pond. Some look so sloppy (for comfort) but you looked great.. I usually never wear jeans because they aren’t as comfortable and your boots don’t look comfort but you could always remove them and wear some soft shoes while traveling. Thanks for the video!

Wow!! I wish I’d seen this over 25 yrs ago. I overpacked SO much in those days. Wheelie carry-ons weren’t an item; I just used whatever bag I had with a shoulder strap. And, there was rarely a limit on how many bags I could check and retrieve later. I was lucky that my strong teen-age son usually accompanied me so I didn’t worry about the weight of bags. But what a hassle it was when our bags didn’t arrive when we got to Venice😱 Luckily I’d packed a few changes of underwear & tooth brushes, etc. in my carry on, for both of us, so we could at least shower and freshen up before the bags arrived….which miraculously they did! Much to my surprise they were in our hotel room after we’d returned from our 1st day of touring! Amazing, right? My poor son, however, dragged my excess luggage around for me for years and years!! (I think I owe him a huge “thank you” once again, for all his hard work!!) Anyway, I’m going to look at your links and perhaps buy some new WISE items for my upcoming trip!

Bon Voyage Robin! Your packing videos are some of my favorite. You have inspired me to invest in just one hard sided carry on and donate my other set of three gigantic pieces of luggage we have had for over 20 years. I cringe at the amount of things I used to pack for a trip. I remember standing at the ticket counter moving things between two suitcases so that neither of them were over 50 lbs! Becoming a minimalist has changed the way I pack and travel. I too enjoy memories and no longer collect “stuff”. Enjoy Europe! 😘

Before you go on a trip, pack your luggage with everything you are taking and walk around the block with it. If it's too heavy, leave some things behind.

Hi Robin! What a useful video! Thank you for showing us in detail what you are bringing and why you chose each specific item. Knowing why and how you plan on using them is very helpful! I don’t know when my next trip will be, but I will for sure skip the big luggage and use carry-on like you showed us. You don't know how stressed I get when I have to pack for a trip, even a short one! 😨It really takes me hours, and when I’m finished, at last, I’m completely exhausted, and my suitcases are bursting at the seams! I would need your calming presence by my side when I pack… but now I’m daydreaming…! 😌Fortunately, I will have this video and your useful tips to help me through the process! I wish you a safe travel, hope you have a good time with friends and family, and look forward to your next video! God bless you and your family!✨💛🙏🌹💕

Talking about waiting for luggage, it takes so much longer now that everyone brings these huge suitcases on board. The wait time is now from the baggage claim to waiting on board to allow everyone to get their huge suitcases off. I used to fly when people just brought on either a briefcase or a small cosmetics bag on board. And everyone got off so much quicker. Of course it was much more luxurious flying years back.

Wow what an informative video. You can sure pack a lot in those two bags, and pretty much at your fingertips at all times. My daughter used to live in Germany, and looking back I wished that I would have been more organized and not taken so much stuff. In fact I no I took to many clothes. My bags were huge. Nothing like what you can purchase today. I loved the red train going threw possibly the Alps. Have safe travels. And I guess my ticket to go with got lost in the Mail. LOL 😊 As always I am a huge Fan. See you next Sunday🍂🍁🧡

Lovely suit case , in Australia When you leave it has to fit on The size and weight 7kilos and they are very strict and when I travel Thru to london and Germany. It makes it hard to travel with just a carry on . Love the idea wish we could do it

Wonderful tips, Robin. Your luggage is not only beautiful but very, very practical. I have two packing cubes which I've never used, but you have inspired me to do so on our next trip. I am curious: is there anything you wish you had brought but did not? Conversely, is there anything that you brought but ended up not needing? Hope you had a safe and fun trip!
@FaithandFlour2 жыл бұрын
Great questions Linda! I almost always use everything I have packed, but if there is something I will be sure to eliminate that on my next trip. Once in a while I will need something that I didn’t pack, like an umbrella, but I can always buy it and found that it’s not worth it to lug around things that I might need but could probably do without. 😉😊✈️🌎💙

I find that sometimes you are unexpectedly separated from your carryon luggage if the plane is full they may take it at the gate. Therefore I keep my jewelry with me at all times as well as my phone and possibly a change of underwear.
