How to Pack for International Travel

Before departing for an international trip, plan your wardrobe months in advance. Purchase clothing made from wicking, quick-drying fabrics, such as Tencel, silk, wool, or polyester.  I like items from PatagoniaTitle Nine Travel SmithWinter Silks, and Smart Wool socks.

 Make your bed, nice and neat. Then lay everything out you want to take. Put half of it back. Take another hard look, and put another half back. Now you are ready to go. Really, it's that easy. Do. Not. Pack. Too. Much. Stuff. Wash your travel-ready clothes at night in the sink, and you'll be ready to go.

Take a sleeping mask and ear plugs. Take a pair of comfy socks to wear on the airplane.

More later, now we need to go back to the library and download movies to the laptop to watch on the plane.
