• My luggage was always heavy when I travel but lately I only bring a few essentials then go shopping for new stuff when I reach my destination. I get a feeling of freedom and excitement when I do this.

• Thank you for your comment and for sharing your experience. Yes, you travel light, but then what do you do with things bought? If you bring them home your suitcase will be heavy flying back. If you left them there...isn't it expensive to do this for each trip?

• Welcome to that little voice and thank you for following my blog. And even more thanks for your packing list. Very helpful!

• Thank you Margo. It is a pleasure to follow you. That list is useful for me, maybe it is possible to personalize it according to your own needs while you travel, but for me it is for sure the only way to have whit me what I need. All the times, without the list, I forgot something at home.

• I am a compulsive list maker and my packing lists are awesome!! I have everything on a spreadsheet which is divided into sections (much like the ones you mention) and everything is colour-coded. Every time I go away (mostly to my favourite hotel in Amalfi) I pull up the spreadsheet on my laptop and update it where necessary. It has sections I can check off - things that need to be bought, things that need to be washed/ironed and finally a section where I can tick that it is in my suitcase!!! A bit over the top maybe but - fingers crossed - so far I've never got to my destination and realised I've left something behind... although of course I can't resist shopping for more while I'm away...
  PS Thanks for following my blog and liking the latest post xx

• Amalfi is really amazing :) Well, maybe you are more organized than me, I just made up the list after few bad surprises happened to me abroad because I forgot something at home. When I travel for leisure I generally avoid lists, agenda and so on, but I need some script to remind to me what to put in the luggage, in order to not ruin my vacation.
  Thank you very much to you also for your contribute to my post. Cheers

• I’m a fitm believer in lists. Best way to ensure you don’t forget anything.

• You know, my problem is to prepare the luggage always at the last moment, so to have a list is the only way to not forget anything :)

• This helped me a lot as my trip recently come up. I am waiting for your next post , your post are really valuable.

• Thank you! It is useful to have a list, so you can pick all what you need for your travel and do not have bad surprises at your arrival. I will post soon about my trip.

• I travel a lot with my family and we have a packing list that we use all the time. Our children have used it since they were about 6 years old. It's meant that I never have to worry about what they are bringing along as they simply bring the things on the list. It's very similar to your list. Thanks.

• Thanks for your contribute. Well I did it to not forget the things, that for me it is quite common, unfortunately. I think it is useful and more or less there are things in common for each of us, but for sure there are some more personal elements. I am a man and I mainly travel alone for business, so the package list concern my needs. It is nice that your children learned to travel and organize themselves.

• Wonderful list. I too like to be prepared all the time.

• Maybe it is not complete, but I use it all the times, especially travelling for business I need to have everything with me to not loose time. Thank you!
