How To Travel with a
Carry-On Size Bag for 12½ weeks!

• pack washable, comfortable clothes in colors that mix and match (non-wrinkle is best)
• ask the experienced travelers you know how much they pack, and learn from them
• pack clothes you can wear in layers, for warmth
• pack your suitcase, then carry it around the block with you. Still want to take all those clothes?

For our January-March trip to Buenos Aires, I traveled in black casual pants, long sleeve jersey top, short jacket, rain coat and comfortable walking shoes.

The following items were packed in my carry-on size suitcase:

• 2 pairs of nice jeans (black, tan)
• 1 pair of belted (beige) casual pants
• smart casual tops in a variety of sleeve lengths
• 8 changes of socks and undies
• a nightgown
• terry slippers
• 1 pair of comfortable walking shoes (tan)
• meds and vitamins
• mini umbrella
• fold-up bags for souvenirs
• toiletries (liquids in small quantities, according to the rules)

Once each week, we dropped the laundry off in the morning and picked it up later the same day - washed, dried and folded, at a very reasonable cost.

Packed separately:

• laptop computer, power cord, headset
• digital camera, recharger, extra battery, memory cards, USB connector

Happy Travels! Linda
