Having a small amount of time to pack everything you need will only ensure that you\u2019ll either forget something or pack something you don\u2019t need\u2026or a bit of both.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Pack for the Weather<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Now that you have a destination, make use of your weather app and see what the prediction is during your stay. Apart from the weather, you\u2019ll need to consider your itinerary as well. These will help you narrow down the items and clothing that you have to bring.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Make a List<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6756\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/checklist-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/checklist.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/checklist-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/checklist-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/checklist-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Never scoff at a checklist! Knowing which items to bring doesn\u2019t mean that you\u2019ll remember to bring everything. Cross-checking with a list is a great way to see that everything you need is inside your suitcase and not on the bedside table. Once you\u2019re done packing, keep the list and take it with you for reference when it\u2019s time to go home.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Rolling vs. Folding<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6757\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/folded-clothes-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/folded-clothes.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/folded-clothes-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/folded-clothes-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/folded-clothes-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Most people prefer to fold their clothes when packing a suitcase but doing so could rob you of extra space. Just fold clothes lengthwise then roll tightly. Heavier pieces of clothing go at the bottom and near the wheels for balance and lighter pieces of clothing go at the top.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Not Maximising Space<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve rolled your jeans and shirts and you have space for your shoes. Put those shoes to good use\u00a0by putting socks and jewelry inside.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Seal Your Toiletries<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6758\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/toiletries-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/toiletries.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/toiletries-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/toiletries-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/toiletries-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Think of it this way: If it can leak, it probably will. Don\u2019t count on the bottle caps to keep everything inside. Instead of crying over spilled shampoo, place the bottles in a zip-top plastic bag before storing them in the suitcase.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Forgetting About Souvenirs<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6759\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/souvenir-2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/souvenir-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/souvenir-2-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/souvenir-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/08\/souvenir-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>No vacation is complete without a few souvenirs to bring home. Because some souvenirs can be really cheap, it\u2019s quite easy to over-shop. Chances are, your suitcase can\u2019t hold all those items in so pack a foldable bag with you and use it to store your souvenirs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow these tips when packing your luggage and have a hassle-free trip!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":6795,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1729,1726],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-everyday-life-hacks","category-procedure"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6752","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6752"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6752\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9579,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6752\/revisions\/9579"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/tips-guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
