We must first learn ourselves, by knowing what we truly can and can t live without while we re away. You re envisioning getting down those luggages from the attic and filling them until they burst. Packing doesn t have to be that hearty. Also, try not to take everything to heart.
Basics mean so many different things to different people.
Well, that s a good start. But, two things not to overdo are clothes and supplies. If you are a person who owns lots of makeup and cosmetics and are fully supplied and stocked all the time, you will probably be the one to overpack these things. You really do not need to take more than one blush, lipstick or brush with you. Just take exactly one of each item.
