Packing Tips
All travelers value the art of packing. Whether out for a trek or on a tour, travelers swear by some time-tested packing tricks that help them make the most of it. It’s needless to state that packing essentials vary with the nature of trip, however, here’s a universal list of packing tips to help optimize your packing skills:
Packing only what you need checks baggage overweight. Packing lighter items at the bottom and heavier ones on top makes your backpack lighter. Keep frequently-used stuff on top. Packing clothes in rolls keeps them wrinkle-free and saves packing space. Packing plastic bags helps manage leaky/wet stuff, dirty clothes from fresh ones; they make awesome rain-covers too. Keep a water-bottle handy.
Roll up the toothpaste tube tight, keep shampoo in small containers and carry half a toilet-paper roll crushed from the middle to save more packing space. Packing solid shampoo/soap bars and tooth powder helps dealing with airline liquid restrictions.
While packing, distribute the valuables in various places and pockets in your bags and the clothes you wear to prevent them from getting stolen all at once. Keep scanned copies of your passport, other IDs, tickets and list important contact numbers in your web mail account as backup against loss or theft.
