Travel packing hacks are always essential because they help avoid any stress of forgetting things or overpacking and finding yourself with three suitcases for a weekend trip.
They are also fundamental for the festive season because family trips are underway, and packing for several people can be overwhelming if you are not prepared.
Five travel packing hacks that will change your life
These packing hacks will help you optimise space, save time, and keep your valuables safe.
Make a list
Making a list of everything you need to pack for your trip is step number one to avoiding any unexpected stress. When you have a list, it helps know you exactly how much and what to pack. This is especially helpful when travelling with kids to dodge unnecessary expenditure.
Roll instead of folding your clothes
Sweaters and jeans can take up a lot of space, therefore, rolling your clothes is faster and it maximises the suitcase space. Keep the folding for any delicate or easily wrinkled clothing.
Store jewellery in a pill organiser
Jewellery has tendencies of getting tangled and lost when not stored properly. A pill organiser might sound weird but, it is small, fits everywhere and keeps your rings and necklaces safe.
Carry a transparent toiletry bag
Keep your toiletries in a transparent bag. This will help you see what you need without messing up your suitcase, and it keeps things compact in case of any leakage.
Use glass cases for cables
Charging cables are a need for any trip, but they can also get easily lost or tangled. Storing them in a glass case keeps them safe and accessible.
