I am a chronic over-packer. If there was a support group for people like me, I'd be there. I can barely go away for a weekend without lugging with me everything that I might possibly need to be prepared for the potential of a cataclysmic event. I can justify packing anything - seriously anything! What's missing from these pictures are my big rubber boots that I'm slowly convincing myself I will wear every day. A few other things missing from these pictures are all the little odds and ends that seem like they won't take up much room - until you try to fit them all in!
The idea of cramming 6 weeks worth of clothes and toiletries into one bag is startling to say the least. Looks like I've got some work to do!!
The "square peg"... most of things I want to bring.
(This picture is missing a lot of stuff!)
The "round hole"...
The only thing I would suggest is a raincoat and some really comfortable shoes, and maybe a scarf that goes with everything. Don't pack too much if you plan on checking out some shops! Also, I bet there will be some pretty sweet markets this time of year!
ReplyDeleteRaincoat, check! Comfy shoes, check! Scarf, check! I think I must have been channeling your expertise all along. Thanks for the advice Kate, give your little munshkin a hug for me :)
