Packing Cubes

A few years ago a friend introduced me to packing cubes. She told me how she could get so much more in her suitcase, her clothes were less wrinkled than just laying them flat, and that she could pull them out, open the cube, and place it in a drawer. And all this was true.

I bought these from Ebags in different colors to sort what items go in each bag. For instance, I may put 5 t-shirts and 3 sleeveless shirts in blue.

I may put evening attire in orange. This includes pants, tops, jacket and dress.

I may use the smaller bag for underwear and socks.

The fact is, by rolling clothes and fitting them tightly together, garments are less wrinkled.

Also, if my bag happens to be overweight at the airport, I can quickly pull out a cube and add it to my carry on.

I usually travel for at least two weeks. I’m heading out next week on a 30 day trip so I need quite a few clothes. And I love my bags.

In 2015, I retired and my goal was to do as much traveling as I possibly could. I started the blog for our first month long trip to Panama in October 2015. My sister Linda and her husband Stan joined Bruce and I on our first trip and we decided together on the name the four amigos. Since then, we don’t always travel with them, sometimes just Bruce and I, sometimes other people, whoever wants to join us on our crazy journeys. The name stuck and I grew an affinity to it. So here we are. I invite you to join thefouramigos blog on our next destination.
