That note on my packing list is mostly for long trips. I leave up the seat because otherwise a ring forms (because the water can't naturally evaporate). It just makes it a bit easier to clean. :)

IDEA FOR PACKING LIST: Redo your packing list with check boxes and numbers, then print several and place them where you kept your original list. Check off items as you pack. This makes packing easier for those of us who can reference a list and still manage to overlook items on the list.
@briannab52969 жыл бұрын
helps to take a copy of packing list with you in your suitcase so you won't forget something on your return trip, and also if it gets lost for any reason you have the list to give authorities.

@charlenecummings47308 жыл бұрын
I also make a list but as I pack I highlight the items. tuck the list in my bag and mark the items as I'm packing to go home. that way I don't forget anything.

Because I/my family travel frequent, I leave my toiletry and makeup bags packed in my carry-on. When I/we come home I restock it. I also buy extra things, ie hair brush, to keep in there so I won't forget to pack it.

As I pack I use my netbook to list items in suitcase to help w inventory and locating items. Safe travels!

Hi, I have found that going on trips has been so frustrating for both my husband as well as myself for so long. Overtaking items we just don't need, your standard list is wonderful, love that idea, also tour idea for jewelry is safe as well as compact, a hanging roll down bag saves so much room and aggravation, thank you so much for this video! Also thank you for the purse organizing video, have a great day.... waiting to watch the most recent videos you post😊

Love your videos. I couldn't pack without my ready to go kits from toiletries to electronics to office supplies & swim stuff if I pack it regularly I've bought a duplicate of it & put it in to a kit. I also love having a go to bag that's used as my personal bag on the plane. It's about 98% packed all the time because I leave the things that go in there in it including a wallet. The exceptions are my phone, kindle & ipod & wallet items such as id, cards & cash.

Well done video. I always keep the suitcase to be packed on the dresser so that it's on a hard surface, at appropriate height. It's important to use those compression straps inside your case to reduce wrinkling. With airport security rifling through carry-on, it's helpful to pack panties & bras in drawstring or mesh bags. double check rules for shampoo, lotions, liquid as they change frequently.
