As it turns out, it is rather challenging to pack a year's worth of things in only two suitcases. My mom and I have been working as a team (because teamwork makes the dream work) to use every inch of space in these two suitcases to the max. For instance: my rainboots are currently home to my travel adapters, some toiletries, and I think maybe even some socks! We're not wasting any space at all.
Luckily, since my family is totally (but covertly) freaking out about my upcoming move, I have been totally zen about the whole thing. Seeing all my clothes in spacebags, though, is getting pretty exciting. I just need to remember to get some wrinkle releaser for when I get there.
Any advice for a traveler? Things that worked well for you? Space-saving strategies?
Thanks for reading!
(also, I promise to include loads of pictures in the blog once I'm in Israel. For now, it would just be a bunch of photos of piles of clothes! not exciting)
I recommend having a tight grip on the person who is sitting next to you on the plane. That helps.
