What's your favorite packing hack you always use when you travel?

@sherrycohen1824 2 ай бұрын

I love jewelry and have a lot in my collection. However, when I travel, I don't bring any except what I'm wearing and will wear it every day of the trip. Less hassle. That said, I often buy jewelry when I'm abroad. On my second trip to Greece, I bought a band with diamonds on three sides. I didn't know it was a wedding band until I got home. Fast forward to three years later. My then fiance told me that his parents had his mother's first engagement ring in the vault for him to give to his intended. Sight unseen, I loved the idea of a family heirloom. When he gave it to me, it actually matched the engagement ring!

@@sherrycohen1824 yes, I only bring a pair of studs (wear) and a more dangly pair of earrings to dress up outfits. And I wear a watch. I don't take any other jewelry but I am open to buy more on the road (depending on the destination, this may even be on the to do list)

Good day, I love your videos, they are very informative. I'll be flying for the very first time in a few months time, it'll be an international flight with 2 stops. Can you please create a video on flying for the first time, the whole process from entering the airport, checking in, how to find gates and plane seat, up to baggage claim. I would really appreciate.

Pro tip: use varying sizes of good quality delicates bags instead of packing cubes. No matter what, they will be cheaper, can be stuffed to achieve compression and you have delicates bags ready for any machine washing you might get to do. And I just use my phone notes instead of a post-it. Various lists: packing list, shopping list (for travel), to do list and a day-of-travel list (don't forget to put charging cords and adapters on there - I'm always using right up to last minute). The thermal waterbottle is particularly helpful when travelling in extreme cold - can make up a bottle of hot herbal tea to sip all day to help keep you warm

Write on re: Flying Avianca. Update: yes, they charge for checked bags ($55 ea way = $110 USD,) if purchased before flights. Avianca also is tight-fisted w/carry-on bags. Before trip price is $120 round trip 2 place in over head bins. I ❤your hacks, compression cubes are the bomb! Thank you. The “leave behind” items is another good hack IF they’re clothes in good condition & your camarera or housekeeper cd really use it for her nuera (DIL.) 🏄🏼‍♂️I’m pack😅ing 4 Avianca flight in 24 hrs for 28 days in Colombia. Attempting to Marie Kondo coordinating outfits & reminding myself I’m going 2 multiple beach cities where no one will know or care that I’ve worn capsule item several times. Last tip: do not pack brand new clothes, shoes you haven’t worn many times. It’s risky & careless to find new skirt is skratchy or new shoes cause blisters.

The plastic wrap for jewelry has been my go to for a long time. It is a game changer because I like necklaces and chains, and no matter what they would always get tangled, the straw trick was a pain in the butt and those jewelry cases never work to keep my necklaces from tangling. I just do the plastic wrap instead. It is perfect every time without any effort.

Love that you use this one too! It's super simple and prevents the frustration of detangling necklaces for 30 mins haha

Great tips! here's another one for those clothes you would sacrifice for souvenirs, use those clothing items to pack your purchases to ship hoe. We bring some pre-printed shipping labels so that we can, if we need to, ship a box back home, which we have done. And we used clothing items we found we didn't need because of weather changes, ie. a heat wave in Paris in October!! We place a dryer sheet in our carry-on bag and put a few extras in a Ziplock bag so that we can replace them when the scent fades. Another liquid to replace with a solid is toothpaste tabs, they work great!! :)

APRO TIP when going through the security checkpoint: For electronics like laptops Phones or cameras it is always better to send them last through the screening.. if you send them first before you clear the security.. you might give a chance to someone to pick your item and leave

Hello. I always want to pack and carry-on only but my problem is the weight limit on the carry-on. What do you do about that?

@hopscotchtheglobe 7 ай бұрын

I never am asked to weight my carry on because when I get to the airport, I can just go right to security since I'm not checking luggage and I get my boarding pases digitally on my phone. So no one asks ever :)

European airlines often have a weight requirement even for carry ons and personal items

@birtheoldenborg9324 6 ай бұрын

Some (European) airlines have actually a high weight limit. British Airways was 23 kg last time I flew, but it is different for each airline and e.g. Finnish Airways have now a superlight ticket for only luggage under the seat and then pay extra for a larger bag in the overhead compartment that is only 8 kg max@@judiko142

@@chatonirvin2369 I decant into smaller glass tubes but I restrict myself to just 1 or 2; just so I can fit all my liquids Edit: of course, if you can prove these are for medical use (ie - you can get your GP to put it in writing) you can just pack them separate as medicines (they are then exempt from the liquids restriction - altho you'll still need to show them at security with your GP letter)

Always use shampoo cond washbars etc and toothpaste powder hence minimum liquids. Plus compression cubes..A moroccan airline tried to make me pay extra as couldnt book ticket correctly as their website wasnt working properly I stood my ground and refused! Thry backed down, seemed like a scam to me. In future will have to use 2 x 25l daypack type bags and will inevitably lose whatever else I own as wont have anywhere to leave it
