My Favorite Packing Hacks


Consciously pack – Meaning don’t just throw everything in your bag. Think about what you like to wear and use on a normal day, ultimately comfort should be a priority. Next think about your planned activities and outfits that go specifically with them. Finally throw in some extras that will be fun to play around with when you’re in a new element.

Pack so everything is visible – Especially if you are moving housing a lot and won’t be unpacking, this will save you so much time!
Wear your bulky items on the plane – They can double as blankets or pillows! Pro tip – wear your hoodie backwards to completely cover your face for the best plane snooze.

Stick with a color palate, this allows your to maximize your clothes because everything will match and you can create endless outfit options. Bonus points if you can get creative and re-imagine your clothes to be worn in a new way (such as wearing your shirt backwards or turning your skirt into a dress).

Use your dead space – meaning fill up those shoes and spaces to maximize your luggage space with things like toiletries and electronics.

Pack a foldable tote – You have no idea how handy this will be whether its for grocery trips or beach days or bringing home souvenirs.

Microfiber towel – It folds up small, dries super quick, great for the beach or the bath!

Eye mask and ear plugs – Sleep great no matter the circumstance! Does the airbnb neglect to have black out curtains? Is there noisy construction above your head? Have no fear because you came prepared!

Dryer sheets – Dual purpose, they will keep your bag and clothes smelling fresh, and keep bugs away!
