Keep those little white sachets you find in new things. They absorb moisture like crazy. If you wash clothes overnight they don’t dry stick them in a plastic bag with a few sachets, swimwear, wet towels, etc…. They are a game changer
Samson is very calm about the whole packing thing....what a little treasure. Our cats start having conniptions when they see the suitcases come out.....they just know something is happening that is going to upset their nice orderly life somewhat!! Have the best trip Carla.
he was being extra needy that day and i know it is because he saw all that packing stuff coming out. animals are so smart and intuitive!! thanks tina xoxo
Packing cubes!!! Professional organizer here. I moved my family of 4 from Japan to the US and had 3 seasons of clothing organized in cubes by person by color. What I packed was what we had until our moving shipment came in 3-4 months. I was able to put 3x as much clothing in with cubes as by rolling. I never ever pack without packing cubes.
HI from Okinawa! Love your tip as we want to visit our son in California hopefully in a year .
What is a packing cube?
I love packing cubes for their organizing element, rather than everything bouncing around in the suitcase; for how quickly it allows you to unpack by just taking out the cubes; and how my clothes then don’t come into contact with hotel drawers or cupboards as much.
@@uniquewhimsy622 It’s a square polyester box with a lid that unzips. You usually buy them in sets of 3.
I always use packing cubes as well. I can cram more into them than just using the empty space in my bags but also remove the cubes directly to the dresser provided for easy access and repacking! Love them!
Have a wonderful trip! I do love your Longchamp bag... it is on my wishlist. (& would you consider doing a kind of review of your packing when you come home? If there is anything you regret or did not use, wish you had brought? I find those to be very useful too. No pressure, just cards on the table!) Best, Lynne
I am definitely team packing cube, but I'm a mom and I', usually packing my kiddos in one suitcase and I have packing cubes in different colors for each kid. It saves so much space, makes unpacking so easy and everybody knows where their items are because they know their color cube.
Makes so much sense to use it for kids and love the color coding!!
Your videos are so calming to me. Your voice and personality are very laid-back and chill. Safe travels!!
Oh thank you sooo much!!😍
Packing cubes are useful (no - awesome) when you are moving from place to place. I just put the cubes in the closets/on the open shelves (depending on the hotel) and when I pack, I just place them back in the suitcase. No second guessing, rooting around or forgetting anything. I also have a compression packing cube for dirty laundry (in a nylon bag) which takes up no room even if it's full. This system has worked for me for 8 years all over Europe and the U.S.
Off to the UK on Thursday for a month from 🇦🇺. Have taken underseat luggage for the last 2 decades. As a seasoned traveller I always learn something new from vids such as yours. Love your no nonsense tips.
I cannot believe you got all that stuff into one small suitcase, but you did. Impressive packing skills!
First of all, how did it take me this long to find you?! All my interests in one channel; minimalist travel, decluttering, organization…! Second of all I love the detailed way you filmed your packing. I love Away bags too, but it’s more than I’m willing to pay. I have a collection of pouches for various scenarios. I do love packing cubes, I think you would be sold if you ever tried a good set. All of your tips are spot on, with one small exception that’s just me probably. I could never do a white travel outfit! I guess I’m just a dirt magnet…
Watched while pacling for my own trip tomorrow. Removed some fantasy clothing items when you said it cos *I KNEW* I wouldn’t wear them.
Safe travels Carla! Hope your trip goes well :)
YES!! So happy to hear this!! Have a great trip!!
Definitely I like packing cubes. But I also dislike clamshell suitcases, I just want one big open box of space in my suitcase style, which gives me the ability to “Tetris” my items to the best configuration. Packing cubes are great to use in Europe when many hotels don’t have enough floorspace for you to keep a suitcase out and open. Can easily stack them on a shelf or put them in drawers to get your clothes. It also makes it super easy to repack my bag when changing cities.
I also use a laundry basket and a couple shoe boxes or empty shipping boxes to gather the Misc. stuff I need to pack in the weeks leading up to the trip. When I think of something or buy supplies for the trip, I put them in one of those boxes when I think of it…and then I compare my collected items against my checklist and just have to find a couple of remaining things on my final day when doing the final pack.
I also like clear ziploc bags for organizing many small items like laundry soap, wash line, contacts etc….. I put a few extra ziploc bags, sandwich/quarts size bc sometimes I grab hotel breakfast for on the go or put a snack in a baggie for later… and bring a 2 gallon sized bag to use to do laundry in the sink.
Hi Carla. When I traveled for work my dog Eddie would really suffer without me. My boss booked me a session with his “animal commutator” (rich people). It was great! Eddie was able to ask questions and told me ahead of time that he’d rather stay with my cousin and his family. I’d been wasting money boarding him with our Vet. Animals are amazing. Anyway, have a great trip and love to your pup!
Omg I was thinking of booking an animal communicator before I leave this is such a sign!! Thank you for sharing I want him to know I’m leaving for a few weeks❤️
@@TheCarlaProject You’re so welcome. I’ll email you a recommendation.
@@TheCarlaProject We've used Laura Stinchfield a few times and she is amazing !!!!!!
A month’s worth in one suitcase! Wonderfully done. I hope your trip is awesome 😎
A month!! Samson will miss his mom!!
I'll miss him more!!😭😭😭
Packing cubes - I love them if for no other reason than I am frequently pulled aside at TSA. Helps keep my things from getting too disheveled.
Team packing cubes! I don't separate shirts from pants etc it's more like clothes from other items. They make compression packing cubes now too
Great packing!
I was in Europe for a month and I had a very small rolling luggage (carryon size) and a purse inside an overnight soft bag along with things I would need if I couldnt access my luggage.
I sometimes wear my tennis shoes on the plane because they take up so much room in the suitcase.
I got a few great tips from you on here! Thank you for your videos!
I am 'team: whatever suits the packing needs.' If I am going on a short trip, I use a smaller bag and roll my clothes. And for the longer trip I use my compression-packing cubes 👍 Have a safe and wonderful trip 😻
I love packing cubes! We just came back from a 3 week Europe trip and it made packing/unpacking so much easier. We did 3 countries so we had to pack and unpack in between countries. Packing cubes are especially helpful for kids clothes. My 5 year old’s clothes are small and it stays organized in a packing cube. I only packed one suitcase between my son and I, and we organized with packing cubes to separate our clothing.
Girl you deserve a medal for Tetris girl of the year.well done. Enjoy the trip
You’re the best packer ever…I love your packing videos. You should create a whole category for travel videos. 🛩❤️🧳 Safe travels.
love the shoe in the umbrella! great hack!
I really loved this packing video and your other one! I am not team packing cube, with one exception, I use one small two sided cube for my undies so I have clean on one side and worn on the other! Great packing tips thank you!!!
I've watched many of these videos today and yours is my favorite.
Trying to pack for a trip is one of the reasons I do not like to travel.
You make it look so painless.
I am glad someone can do it.
I will remember what you have said and done and then maybe it will help me.🤞🏻
This was the best packing video I’ve seen this far. This made me repack for my trip 3x 😂
My mom and I traveling. She has Carry on and I have backpack fjällräven kinken with clothes. Packing extrem minimalist. And hand wash. We was in helsinki .
✨🧳✨Hey Carla. I’m definitely Team Packing Cube & I’m teaching my granddaughters to pack with them as well. I bought each of them their own set in different colors & my daughter said when they went on vacation this summer even the 5 yo was able to keep her stuff straight. It really helps when TSA wants to go into your bag as my son experienced on his last vacation. We’re Team Carry On as well so it truly helps. You did great with minimalist packing. Do you take pictures of your outfits at home so you know what you have when you get to your destination??? Enjoy your trip. Hugs & much love.✨🧳✨
I love packing cubes. Even use in my dresser and closet to organize.
Happy travels Carla ✈️
So glad I found your channel last weekend. It’s a rainy Sunday in Maryland and binge watching to catch up! Can’t wait to see some of your travels. Enjoy! ✈️😊
Wow! Have fun!
Fabulous job and ideas!
That was amazing! Have a fun and safe trip.
Lovely to find you! April the suitcase designer guided me here. i’m impressed with your packing skills and speed. i try to keep things minimal when i travel as well but it takes me hours to decide on my outfits. Fitting everything in a carry-on suitcase is ideal but i use a bigger suitcase for long haul destinations so that i can put in all the souvenirs i buy ;)
This was fun. Thank you! Have a nice, safe trip!
Great tips! Have an amazing time in Europe. I hope to get there too next year. 🤞 can’t wait to see upcoming videos that include your travels 💕
This video came at the perfect time thank you so much
I love watching you pack! I always learn a lot! Have a wonderful trip 💗
Love ur videos btw! Very inspiring
Really informative! Thank you and your dog is adorable 🥰
Awesome packing easy set up. Be well and safe on your travel have fun!
I'm team packing cubes. mostly for organization but also for some compression (will be trying compression cubes on my upcoming trip).
I'm a low maintenance type if person , no makeup, minimal skin care, don't mind re-wearing/washing clothes etc. it usually makes packing so much easier. I'm one of those who actually enjoys packing. haven't checked in luggage in ages
Same I love packing and keeping it simple :)
Have a safe and wonderful trip Carla.
Your packing videos are so satisfying! Makes me wanna pack for fun XD
I’m very impressed and will look this up before my next trip as I always have way more than I need.
Really enjoyed the video. Great info and tips
queen of packing! lol ah so jealous i want to do this someday. solo travel is good for the soul. enjoy your trip!! 😍
Have fun on your trip! Great ideas and awesome packing. Take care!
Have a great time, make great memories ☺️
This video came at the perfect time bc I’m going to England for a few weeks and every time I travel I try to minimize what I bring. Loved how everything fit!
Poor Samson! He’s gonna miss his mama! 🐶 Hvae fun!
Wow - Great job!! I am team packing cube for sure. I love how your wardrobe is coordinated. I hope you have a great trip!!
Oh yes please invest in packing cubes. I’ve only used them for a year and they’re seriously a game changer 👍🏾
Found from the TSD, loving the videos to inspire me to declutter. Watching from UK, Suffolk :)
I always roll my clothing when I am traveling. And I love it that you pack stuff in your shoes - me too! I hope you have the best time ever. Be safe, have fun! 🌷❤️
Bon voyage dear Carla❤🍀🌸⚘
I have been binging on packing videos and yours is one of the best! (Team compression packing cube.)
Wow! I am impressed! And how exciting you are traveling. I hope you have a great time.
Great!! Gonna refer to this on next away trip.
The longchamp tote bag is a game changer!
Yay! Another vid and just in time to remind me to be simpler with my upcoming trip! Happy travels!
Ok so I just packed for three weeks in Europe and I channeled your vid! I couldn’t fit everything into the small carry on luggage but I did fit everything into a medium size luggage (big win for me!) and a small shoulder carry on. I am proud because I had to pack in a rush (usually I take atleast three days to slowly pack and take my time.) One of my downsides is shoes. I always bring 3-4 shoes because of different activities and to make sure feet don’t hurt because of tons of walking. Progress not perfection! 😂
Great job, safe travels.
So efficient! I’m living for this🤩
Not bad for a month right!😍
So minimal yet so close to the maximum weight x you really pack well and take so little for such a long stay away. Looks like you have room to bring some purchases back. Great job 🤗 enjoy your trip 🤗
Have fun your vacation to Europe. I'm going to Mexico next month and can't stop watching packing videos.
You did so good! I loved the hack where you stuffed the shoes. I can’t believe I never thought of that.
Very organised and calming video. I pack in a similar way. Thank you for sharing!
Packing cubes all the way. Helps me to stay organized.
Love this! I always pack too much unless going somewhere warm and living in swimsuits. It would be amazing to pack everything into a carry-on! Have a fabulous trip!
Have a wonderful time🙏
Thx for the packing tips and have fun in Europe!!
Thank you!! 😃
I really enjoyed this video. So much I just purchased the same calpak. I have a waist pack that I already use but it’s not roomy enough and it doesn’t have the double zippers. This is one looks perfect for travel. Thanks. Enjoy your trip.
You are truly a packing magician!🧳👍
Packing cubes are a must! You can save up so much space
My packing style is very similar to yours, I hardly ever use my packing cubes but I always take so little that they're not really necessary. Have a wonderful safe trip Carla ✈🥳
Hope you have a fabulous trip‼ Looking forward to any Europe videos 😻
Travel umbrella in your shoe is pure genius, I had seen others recommend putting socks in shoes, but socks can be squeezed in anywhere and travel umbrellas are trickier..... And shout out to your great trip to ensure you are not packing for your "fantasy self" I know I have fallen into that trap.
I am team packing cube - mostly because they look nice in the suitcase 😹
Ooooh good for you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰
Awesome job.
I loved your belt bag I just ordered it, I’ve been looking for one like yours, great ideas on packing cuz I always overpack and hate it, great video thanks
It's the best belt bag. Love all the zipper compartments. Perfect for travel and road trips!!
Thanks, I found it in the description box!
Hi there !! I’m off for weeks inter railing around Europe for 4 weeks x I’m intrigued by laundry strips ❤ cheers Mrs Wummin 😍
U are so organised n efficient Carly. Have a safe trip.
Thanks viveca 😍
Have fun💟
I love packing cubes, they've helped me for 15 years or so. I hope you'll enjoy Europe!
I am team packing cube for sure.. especially with a hard case suitcase like yours (I have the same one from target). I switch the sides.. I’ll put my packing cubes on the other side with the y snap.. you can organise the packing cubes so they are all strapped down securely. Then on the zipper side I’ll put my other items, shoes, toiletries etc so they are more secure and not flying all around inside my suitcase.
Thank you for this video!! I’m planning a trip to San Francisco this fall. Your new suitcase is the exact size I need because I’m tired of lugging anything larger…I’m off to Target! I’ve used packing cubes for about a decade. Have a fun trip to Europe. ✈️
How fun!! It's a great suitcase and a great price. It's like an Away bag dupe!
Have an amazing time!! 🥰
I MISS YOU!!
I’m actually not a packing cubes person but I see why many love them. Have fun on your trip!! I would love to know, how do you plan for the solo trip? I’ve always wanted to do something similar but never know where to start
I loved the Longchamp packing… it‘s pretty funny to me how many videos pack for Europe (a small area of vastly differing climates) and hardly any that pack for North America (a huge area of vastly differing climates)…
Have a great trip!
I use packing cubes. I pack cashmere sweaters b/c you can get a lot of warmth from a thin sweater. Because I am a collar/button type person, I pack 1 comfy lounge outfit to wear around the hotel rooms or when I'm going down for breakfast. My next long trip, I will be adding a delicates laundry bag. Thank you for your tips!
Great tips!!!!
I love packing cubes personally and rarely travel without them 😆
Thank you for the tips. This is very helpful 😃🌷👍🏽🌸
Wow!!
Great video, love your style of presentation and your no-nonsense tips. I used to travel a lot and have considered myself a light packer, but I’ve never done Europe for a month in just a carry on. I’ll have to try it :)
(P.s.I do not use a belt pack, instead I use The Sash Bag which fits under a jacket and no one can even tell you have it on. )
I’d love to see an unpacking video to hear about your trip and see any souvenirs! Hope you have a blast
Yesss I will definitely share all of this stay tuned ❤️
hairbrush is a must....I once joined the mile high club....and afterwords....I needed that hair brush
I bought packing cubes for 2 weeks in Hawaii in a carry on, staying in 3 different hotel/Vrbos. After the first stop i quit using them because they were hard to use all of the space efficiently, especially in a smaller bag. I couldn’t squish things in between clothes like a hairbrush, toiletries, etc.
Some Purell and disinfectant wipes are always a good idea, too.
