1. What to pack
First step, look for a
light bag or suitcase
, especially for those who travel by plane who have luggage limited to the measurements and weights stipulated by each airline.
Be clear about the climate that we will find in the destination to which you are traveling and what type of activities will be carried out in order to choose the appropriate clothing.

How many times do we return home after a trip and notice there were several clothes that we did not take out of the suitcase?
It is worth spending some time thinking about possible outfits for each day of the trip.
Opt for the garments that allow the greatest
number of combinations
: less amount of clothing and variety of sets.
Smooth designs, neutral tones and jean are ideal.
Pay attention to
accessories
such as necklaces, earrings, bracelets, belts, scarves or scarves that help create different
looks
using the same clothes and take up little space.

First of all, put everything we want to keep on top of the bed to have a
complete view of what we have selected
, have a clearer notion of the amount of things and check if there is something that can be removed.
Instead of storing clothes in piles, one item on top of the other, it is
better to roll them up
and put them next to each other.
In this way it wrinkles less and it is easier to visualize everything we carry.
To take up less space, underwear can be tucked into shoes and belts into shirt collars to keep their shape.
Those more delicate
or bulky
garments -shirts or dresses- should be placed on top of the others, to give them more space and avoid wrinkles.
