I rolled all my clothes and ended up able to fit everything in a carry on. Yay for not having to pay for a suitcase!

[tappingflamingo]

for the most part very good ideas. I have found that rolling my clothes took up more room than having the least amount of folds as possible. For example, my tshirts can lay flat in my suitcase without a fold, then make sure all wrinkles are out, before putting the next article of clothing on top, etc. I can fit a TON of stuff this way!

[sujoydas]

the rolling method works really well. I was able to put 3 pairs of clothes excluding my sleepwear, a pair of shoes, an entire coconut, a jar of crisps, shaving kit, glasses, a bottle of perfume, tickets and sunglasses all in a single backpack

Which is better may depend on what benefit you want from using them. I use smaller inexpensive packing cubes to pack similar folded items together: shirts, pants, sweaters, underwear. I fold the items to the size of the bottom of the cube and fill it up completely. This allows me to travel for 7 or more weeks to many different hotels, with just a 22" carryon bag, and put outfits together every day. Without that internal structure in my bag I'd go nuts. Yes, when full they are firm and not the perfect shape for my bag, a little hard to pack around.. But the compression is helpful and the organization is essential.

HINT: wrap your socks or underwear in a plastic bag or ziploc before putting it inside your shoes... And the newspaper can leave some black makes on your clothes.

Always go with the essentials when packing. Store toiletries in silicone containers like that from Roadeavour instead of bringing big containers. You'll be saving the environment when re-using bottle containers too!

Take a spare pair of spectacles or even old pair prescription specs in case you lose or break your latest ones while traveling. 🤓

[LilLWH]

That is a great way to destroy your headphones

There’s no problem for space but always weight 😓

[ivakostic]

Its better to fold then to roll u save more space by folding because you can make it flat while folding but when rolling its thick and then you save more space bye folding.

I think you shouldnt wrap your earplugs so tight. The will break in no time

Great video! The next step is learning how to hack travel to pay for flight in the first place. I've been using my travel credits cards and the insane bonuses associated with them to cover my airfare for over a year. I originally discovered the practice on Upgraded Points, and I'm sure there a ton of other resources out there also. Happy traveling!

[PochaMocha]

This will be good for me. It reminds me how they do it in other countries to fit a lot of stuff in one bag

[annastuttard]

As far as I know, in most of Europe you're not allowed to even take an empty bottle with a capacity greater than 100ml with you.

[GanisChannel]

The "Ok maps" was the coolest trick

[TGFTheGuidingFactor]

This was really informative and nice. Amazing.

[LotfiFederer]

The empty bottle hack is a genius one lol I was laughing so hard

[NiigaaniChrysler]

Usually I keep emergency cash in my bank account, but what do I know.

[ibtihaal]

So true, water bottles are the worst when needing to refill-empty them!
