to take & not to take

after so many trips overseas with bulging bags
only to use less than half of what was in there
i should have learned my lesson by now

i make lists
but that is more for peace of mind than practicality
i find everything i think i need and organise them into piles
i carefully weed out the not-so-necessary items

but, inevitably, my bag is ready to burst at the seams
this is not ideal, it causes unnecessary stress
so my message - take the basics, take less
think light, hard wearing, hand washable clothing with pockets

read about my take and not to take lists on my travel tips page
