The Art of Packing Lightweight Bags

It always seems like a task when it comes to packing bags for a trip, especially when you are that kind of person who doesn't feel like leaving anything behind. And in the name of packing light, always end-up packing everything in a traveling bag.

But does packing always have to be his way? Well, I don't think s. There is always a middle ground where we can quickly feel content and satisfied. Where we can pack our stuff in the given suitcase space without worrying about wearing the same pair of shoes or any dresses twice a week while you are on a trip, after saying all these things, traveling light doesn't have to be extra-light. Carrying the exact amount of clothes will suit having a good time on your trip and the appropriate amount of clothes.

Tips for packing light bags

  • Switch your Suitcase- The most common mistake we make is choosing the bag of a larger size and then trying to fill it with everything required for a trip. Starting with the small bags will be wiser because they would be easy to carry. Pack the things that you feel will be most needed for your trip. And before choosing the luggage, always consider the weight of the luggage as it will affect the overall weight of the stuff you are going to take with you.
  • Prepare a packing list- When you start packing while going through your stuff, it feels like you need everything, and leaving a single thing behind will not be a good idea. Don't fall into the trap and prepare a packing list before initiating the packing. In this way, you'll already know the stuff you'll be required to take for your trip, and this helps you from getting jumbled between things that you are required to pack from your wardrobe.
  • Compression packing cubes- Sometimes, our clothes don't get fit while backing into the backpack or in a suitcase, and it generally takes a lot of space. To minimize the space and adjust the right amount of clothes in your suitcase, packing clothes in a Compression bag will be advisable.
  • Replace shoe cover with shower Caps- The shoe cover generally acquire a maximum of the space in a suitcase, and you certainly can't afford to pack the shoes without covering the sole. So, instead of using the shoe cover, you can pack your shoes by covering them in Shower caps. In this way, you a pack three to four pairs o shoes in the space that would have to get occupied with the Shoe cover in your bag.

Bottom line

It is not very difficult to make a bag pack of your for a fun trip to anywhere with the right amount of weight and the specific amount of things required. It is also advisable to pack your daily necessities (sunscreen, body lotion, deo, etc.) in a side bag that you can easily carry other than your suitcase.
