  • Backpack Tips

  • - When you are packing things into a backpack, place the lighter items at the bottom and the heavier ones on top. Your bag will feel lighter this way. Also, remember to place the important things on top.

  • Bags Within Bags

  • - Bags within bags are a worthwhile trick. Use big duffels, but also pack smaller empty duffels inside for use as boat bags for clothing and other necessities.

  • Beach Bag

  • - When packing to head to the beach and you know you're going to have a little extra room, instead of stuffing your bathing suit, towel, sunscreen and all that other stuff needed just for the beach, lake, etc. into your regular suitcase, pack these items into their own beach bag. This way, you won't have to dig into your big bag to look for your two-piece! And it makes preparing for the sun a little more exciting when you already have it all together. This is a good tip when travelling with children, too who are anxious to jump in the water or sand!

  • Bulky Towels?

  • - Sick of bulky towels filling up your suitcase? Try this fabulous method for compacting large towels! First, lay your towel out flat on the floor, and smooth out wrinkles. On one of the shorter sides, fold 3-4 inches of the towel under the edge. Then, fold both long sides of the towel into the middle. From the other short side, start rolling the towel. Smooth out any bulges as they come, and roll tightly. Once you have rolled up all the way, wrap the pocket created by the excess you folded over around the roll to secure it. As a bonus, you can roll up swimsuits and other shower/beach items within the towel for simple access and packing!
