Did you get there with less shampoo, Jenn? LOL
So it's a wash on the rolling versus folding. I do like the ziplock back method. That's a great idea. Got it on my packing list.
What are space bags? The only things close that come to my mind are those storage bags you suck all the air out of. OK at home with vacuum, but what do you do down there for the return?
Used to have an issue with the winter coat, but I got that covered now. Couple of years back, I got a super travel coat from Costco - above the knee, down, waterproof, good to -20 and it squishes into a bag that's about 8 in long and 3 in diameter and weighs millegrammes! Doubles as a neck pillow in flight and hangs off the side of my backpack. It can be squished into the front pouch of the back pack, too.
Taking note of all your packing tips. Less stuff, more fun. I keep reminding myself that I spend more time in my bathing suit during the day. i plan to lighten if more next trip - hopefully in June!

With 41 days left to go before trip number 10 you would think I have the packing thing down... I don't..
I've started to pull things out and already know its too much. We bring less and less each time, but I really want to get it down to just one checked bag and a carry-on for electronics, etc.. between the 2 of us.
My goal this year is to bring WAY more casual clothes since our plan is to only do 1 "nice" dinner during our 10 day stay so we can just relax, watch the sunset, and chill instead of racing to the room to get all dolled up for dinner at 5 pm. I want to live in my swimsuit, and if I'm not in that I want to be in my comfy shorts and tank top.
Good Luck me....

If done tightly, rolling def takes up less space....taught in the military to roll to fit in a small trunk...
