I am a man.
Still, I need a big ole suitcase/luggage.
I bring a zipper cooler that is filled with just:
Soap, body wash, bug spray, mouthwash, flashlight, incense,
spray Lysol sanitizer, wash cloths, towels,
after shave lotion/cologne,
rolling papers, snacks,
tooth paste, tooth brush,
Body lotion, mini-first aid kit,
extra batteries, lotion, sun block, razors (maybe), little radio/cd player.
This I put inside my luggage bag.
Then there are shorts, swim trunks, t-shirts, long pants,
long sleeve shirt, sandals, gym shoes, socks, under wear,
hats/cap, towels, sweat rag.
All this inside the luggage bag next to the cooler.
Then the carry on with:
Laptop, more snacks, I.D./wallet,
keys, $$$. sweat rag, extra sun glasses,
reading glasses, J-cell phone.
Not to mention gifts for the kids and Fam. in Jamaica.
But, as you know everyone is beautiful and different and like
the blast from the past Stylistics song:
"People make the world go round", what a jam!
VVHT, man you lucky.
I was stopped and pulled over once and made to go to that "other line"
We just finished packing.....seriously, after 30 years I can't believe we still don't have it figured out. Have a duffel bag and1/2 waiting for us that we leave. Lordy be.....LMAO!
Gooodness, I must check. I have one bag full of kitchen things. Knives, spices, teas, tea pot.....the list goes on. Always some sort of necessary item for a friend.
Once I did return with only carry on. i left behind shampoos and lotions. That starts to add up though so that won't happen again.
The wife and I both have one checked bag and carry on and sometimes backpack each. But we bring school supplies, gifts, once a case of backpacks to give away and last reach we brought 50+ musical instruments for the kids. I would feel guilty bringing just a carry on. That would mean we didn't bring anything to give away!
My CarryOn (longest stay 9days) Includes:
5 Swim suits
3 Cover Ups
Beach Flip Flops
Shorts
Leggings
Tops
1-2 Sundresses/Skirt
Sleepwear/Under garments
1 Flat Shoe
1 Semi Heel (That I never wear and about to be fired from the list)
1 Sneaker (That I usually wear on the flight)
Toiletries (In a toiletry bag that hangs up)
Strap purse & Hand purse
Face cloths
Scarfs/Sun Cap
Portable speaker
Candles & Incents
Snacks
Bottles (For the room)
Insulated cup
Coffee cup
Strap purse & Hand purse
I use the Cubes & Ziploc Space bags they work wonders!
Instead of spending the extra money on kitchenette, I pack my own ie.....single burner stove, hot pot, small pan, small fry pan and spatula. plates, bowls, utensils, small fan when ac doesn't work, small collapsible cooler for when promised fridge fall through, an extra towel......I actually pack everything but the kitchen sink.....too many years with unexpected surprises I guess......then I leave everything behind for cleaning staff (they always know when they see us that they are going to be taking home a bunch of goodies when we check out).....and it leaves my suitcases with plenty of room to bring home several bottles of banana rum cream....
