Here are some other useful tips:



Pack wrinkle free and clothes that dry easily.



Avoid carrying trolley bags. They may whiz around easily, but are heavy and cumbersome.



Don’t overdo the toiletries. Buy some while on the trip. Also, think simple — take a regular toothbrush instead of a big electric one.



Pack things that have multiple uses; for example, a sarong can work as a towel, a skirt, a scarf and even a makeshift bag


Don’t carry too many gadgets or books.
