Been travelling to and from continental Europe a lot, usually for 4 days at a time and, since they lifted the 1 bag rule, have a little case for clothes, a backpack for my work stuff (puter, papers etc) and a teeny plastic bag with everything liquid I haven't been able to source as solid.
Few weeks ago we were going across for one day early; mentioned to my boss it would be great coz I could pack light.
I arrived at the airport with my l'il cross body handbag and huge backpack and he laughed, 'this is you travelling light?' I pointed to the little bag, 'this is my stuff' and the backpack, 'THIS is all my work stuff!'
Whenever I check backage in it ends up scuffed and bashed and the stuff inside all squished - last time one of the zipper toggles had even somehow come off - so always try to do the overhead thing if I can.
P.S. Friend tipped me off that if you roll your clothes rather than folding them they get less creasy - it works!!!
