Pack an organized suitcase
How to pack and organize your suitcase for a week-long trip.
Folding clothes: • Come piegare i vestiti in valigia -utilities
I'll show you what I pack for a trip to a seaside (or summer) destination for about a week.
I'll also try to film the same for a trip of two weeks or more, because there are some differences (especially in terms of toiletries and the way I fold or pack clothes). In any case, you can use a much larger suitcase and use this system to pack many more items, as you'll have much more space.
What's not in my suitcase is in my carry-on bag, which for travel is a fairly roomy shoulder bag that also holds:
documents and money
sunglasses
a book to read or a Kindle or MP3 player
phone
a small bag with medicines
a small bag with a change of underwear (if I'm flying and in case of emergency)
a makeup bag (which I don't pack for 7 days)
For travel, I choose clothing that allows me to save space in my suitcase but is also ready for any emergencies on vacation... namely:
long jeans
t-shirt
cardigan or sweatshirt (which I tie around my waist if it's hot)
sneakers
Separately, I have a Hastens travel pillow with a beach towel (which is very convenient for resting in the car, train, plane, and even in hotels or on the beach)
