We still don’t have the answer to the great packing debate about whether it’s better to fold or roll your clothes.

    Do you roll or fold your clothes when packing? 🤔🤔
  • In lockdown and watching travel-orientated videos for the torture value. WWAAAAAHHHHHH!

    I’m a flight attendant and I one bag carry when not working. I roll my clothes and I swear by compression packing cubes. I love the organization and the space saving features. You get a lot more space for the buck with them. Just know that the more stuff you bring, the more weight you deal with. I go with neutral’ish clothing to mix and match different articles to stretch out outfits over longer trips. Multiuse articles are also a gain changer.

    I lean/lay against the wall with my plastic compression sacks - easy to get the air out that way. The 1 gallon Ziploc bags also work well for socks. Just know that your bag will be extra dense using these. While they compress the space - they don't reduce the weight. A challenge for budget airlines.

    As a diehard one-bag traveler, I love your tips and videos! It would be great to see a video on how to pack light for two totally different locations in one trip. I'm planning an Everest Base Camp trek with a stopover in steamy Singapore for next year. Yikes! A lot of stuff for one small bag. I'm still working on it... ☺️

    Put a dryer sheet in with your clothes in space bags to keep them smelling fresh.
  • @thekid9989
    I will add in on your tips. I bring black and grey climbing pants and then buy primary coloured shirts or shirts with a little pattern. Goes with any pants but adds a little colour.
  • I have to try the zip locks as packing cubes! It seems like the best money-saving alternative!
  • This guys amazing and amazing information. Who knew you could look on You Tube and figure out how to pack that new backpack. Thank you!
  • @01cthompson
    I love the burrito idea. Gotta try it if I ever travel again.
  • @luharvey77
    Great tips! Huge fan of packing cubes. I tell everyone to use them and often give them as gifts! I also tell everyone who will listen to PACK LIGHT!
  • Thank you these different methods are helping me with my clothing
  • @gmt5664
    I needed this video a decade ago! I'm terrible at minimalist packing, learned so much from your channel. This video helps. TFS
  • Be aware that if you are traveling to Africa, a number of countries (like Kenya and Tanzania) have outlawed plastic bags, including ziplock plastic bags. Occasionally some checkpoints will let you through with ziplock bags if they believe you will not be leaving them in the country. However, you can’t really count on that and the fines are fairly hefty.
  • As Michael said “Keep it simple stupid” 👍 a quote one should live by
  • @unbiasly
    the greatest pro tip is to go somewhere with good weather and not that conservative with attire :P for ladies that means more tank tops, shorts, lightweight dresses. more loose clothing that compresses super easily
