Packing always stresses me out and yet I seem to always put it off until the last minute. Granted, I do attempt to make lists of everything I need to pack, but almost never pack until the the night before. I am determined to have at least my carry-on bag packed at least a day before my next trip.
I will be using my Longchamp Le Pliage Large Tote in navy. I find that it is large enough to fit all of necessities and has a great strong zip. I’m always afraid that things will fall out of my bag.
For this trip, we will be traveling for over 24 hours on three fights and a couple of layovers–so I will be needing a little more than I would for a domestic flight.
I will be bringing:
- laptop- MacBook Air
- small crossbody bag
- passport, visa, pen
- phone and charger
- ear buds
- small makeup bag
- neck pillow
- change of clothes
I was able to fit all of this in my bag, yes, including my regular sized neck pillow. It’s just something about having the pillow flop around so many different surfaces while traveling, then having it so close to my face that grosses me out.
After a couple of international flights, I have learned that your luggage doesn’t always make it to the final destination the same time you do. So it’s always good to pack at least one change of clothes for emergencies and accidents.
