Traveling is amazing; it would be hard to find someone who doesn't enjoy packing their bags and leaving home, but like everything, it has its details.
Packing is probably the least fun part of going on a trip, and sometimes we can bring too much or too little, which affects our vacation.
Today we share five foolproof and efficient techniques that will make packing no longer a hassle.

Make a list
OK, it may sound like a drag at first, but the truth is that organizing yourself from the beginning will save you time later. Make a super simple list of everything you need to take: clothes, electronics, notebooks, sunglasses, toiletries, etc. Once you take out your suitcase, you’ll just have to follow the list, and without looking at it twice, you’ll know without a doubt that you have everything you need.

Roll it up
It has been proven time and again that the most efficient way to fold your clothes for a trip is actually not to fold them, but to roll them. When you arrange your garments this way, you reduce the space each one occupies, prevent wrinkles, and can store them by sections to know where everything is.

Fill empty spaces
The ideal is to travel light, and to achieve this, you must take advantage of every space you can inside the suitcase. This includes the inside of your shoes and even the last outer pocket of the suitcase; use those spaces to stuff socks and underwear or even notebooks and toiletries.

Bag it
Toiletries are essential on any trip; each of us has our own needs. What is also necessary is to pack all bottles containing liquid, cream, or gel in a plastic bag. This will help keep them all together and packed in one section, and also, if something spills, it won’t end up dirtying all your clothes and accessories.

Replace with technology
We know it’s very romantic to carry books and magazines on a long trip, as well as your notebooks and pens, but to pack efficiently, we recommend a tablet. Instead of carrying loads of paper, turn your office into a single device that includes books, magazines, notes, camera, etc.
