[quote=Anonymous]don’t wait til the last minute. It sounds like waiting to pack stresses you out and then you try to pack a bunch of stuff to compensate for your lack of planning in advance. Check the weather and think about the activities you’ll be doing on the trip. Then pick out an outfit for each day of your trip. If you actually plan outfits instead of just randomly adding pieces of clothing, you’re less likely to overpack clothes. Unless absolutely necessary only pack 1 pair of shoes and then you’ll have 2 pairs for the trip since you’ll be wearing the others on the plane. If possible wear your bulkiest clothing on the plane (if I’m bringing a jacket/coat with me I generally will wear it on the plane.) travel size toiletries and no extra toiletries that are “just in case” type items (like don’t bring a whole first aid kit w you unless you have reason to think you’ll really need it). Unless it would be really inconvenient to do so, I typically wait til I’m at my destination to buy some things. Like I don’t typically pack sunscreen I just buy it once I get there or if I’m staying w someone I’d buy a host gift while there instead of packing one.
