Clothes To Pack For Your Trip

By Faisal Khan

  Over packing your suitcase is one the biggest mistakes you can make when traveling.

I strongly suggest that you make a check list of items before you begin packing, to make sure you don't forget anything. Remember that  traveling light will result in enjoyable, productive, stress-free travel experience.

What to Pack: 

1. Pack everything in clear plastic bags (preferably zip lock), divided into items One plastic bag for each type of clothing. This is extremely useful in various ways. When you unpack your bag you just take out a series of bags and you can see immediately what you want.

2. Coordinate your clothes so you don't have to carry too many shoes and accessories to match a variety of colors. Make sure all your items match, choose a color scheme and stick to it.

3. Take as few clothes as possible, and those which are easy to wash on your trip. 

4. Think about where you’re going, and when. Investigate temperatures and pack accordingly.

5. Make sure to have lightweight, comfortable walking shoes and flip flops. 

6. Lastly, leave some space in your bag for souvenirs.
