Summer is a time for travelling and making memories with families.

As you prepare for your travels, here are some travel packing tips to help you have an organized trip!

• Pack by outfit. Lay down the heaviest clothing, then stack the rest of the items of the outfit with the lightest on top. Repeat for the rest of your planned outfits.

• Roll, don’t fold! Rolling your clothes will save you a lot of space.

• Use packing cubes. Packing cubes will save you space and time and keep your clothes clean.

• Follow the rule of three. Three of everything! 3 shirts. 3 bottoms. 3 dresses. 3 footwear. The key is that all these items can be combined to make different outfits.

• Organize by weight. Always place the heaviest items closest to the wheels of a suitcase or at the bottom of your backpack so that the weight is distributed to the bottom and makes it easier to roll or carry.

• Order strategically. Place the outfits you will wear first at the top.

• Everything in its place. Decide where each item belongs to. Having a map in mind makes it easy to ‘tetris’ stuff and find each item easily.

• Wear your bulkiest clothing! If it’s heavy, wear it!

Happy travelling and making memories, Friends! :)
