      My AirPod Pro’s, a good book, & only packing a carry-on suitcase with a backpack for my personal item. And I try to not have my luggage packed super full so if I wanna bring home souvenirs I have the space.

      Definitely my Bose quiet comfort headset, wearing leggings on the plane with good side pockets I can slip my phone into when I am listening to an audiobook, a good hoodie can function as a blanket, eye mask, and pillow XD, definitely a back up battery for the phone, and packing clothes that all match eachother - typically neutrals. I also always try to nab a window seat if I can get it! :)

    Less is more when packing. That's true. I've many times packed things that I don't use. At the end of the trip I look in my bag and see the unused items still packed nicely, like I did at home

    I love my IT cases. They’re so light. And they hold so much. I also have the smaller IT hold-all. Well had to buy a second one as my little cat claimed the other one. It’s her favourite bed 🤣 also we always take photo copies of our passports and put them in each case. Dunno why. Just feel better doing that

    I love the idea of packing carry-on only, but I think airlines are starting to catch on. I recently flew Scandinavian Airlines and they had a weight and size limit for carry-ons that was too big for a roller bag. Instead we had to bring our larger suitcase so that we only had to pay for one checked bag instead of two. I wonder if this trend will continue for the bigger airlines too or if they'll start charging for carry-on suitcases.

      Nope it is a standard airline carry-on suitcase! I’ve flown with it throughout the United States, Europe, etc. with it as a carry-on, and never had issues!

    I tend to struggle with my purse: I don't use it in the airport because it's one more thing to carry. I like your idea of separate small pouches within the purse that can easily go from purse to backpack and back again! Thanks!

    I really like your philosophy and method of packing. But how do you deal with clothes after you’ve worn them, especially shirts, socks, and underwear? Do you keep them separate, perhaps in a plastic trash bag (my current method)?

    One question, do you unpack everything once you reach your travel destination or live out of your suitcase?

    • @AshlynneEaton
      @AshlynneEaton  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Typically, it just depends on how long I’ll be in a destination! If it’s more than four or five days, I’ll usually unpack. Less than that and I find it’s just easier to live out of a suitcase 🤍

    I'd love any advice about travelling with only one bag - I take my cat with me, and she counts as my personal item, which only allows either a suitcase or a backpack. Any tips for how to downsize to one bag?

  • @minuzzz
    @minuzzz 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hi Ashlynne, I wonder if the carry on luggage that you have, is a compatible size for Europe? I'm from Austria, Europe and I'm asking because it looks a bit big to me, and knowing that even my carry on sometimes is checked in during boarding, because of size and weight. Might be an excuse of the airlines that they say the flight is fully booked, that they ask people to check in their carry on.
    How was your experience when you travelled to Europe or around Europe?

    @justnoticing 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Hi Ashlynne, I'm a complete convert to carry-on travel. It not only has the advantages you mentioned (and how much better not to have to hang around waiting for luggage!) , but I find it better not to have luggage taking up space in the small rooms we stay in. Often there is only one stand for luggage and very little space to put anything. How much total weight(carry-on + personal item) are you carrying? Recently, I have travelled on 2 two-week trips (one two 2 different countries) on an airlines where the total weight cannot exceed 7kg. They actually weighed it. Living in Australia, economy fares for carry-on allow maximum 10kg total carry-on so I carry a light backpack rather than a case with wheels which can use up 4+kg of the allowance. I really love your generic list. Would it be possible to share it with us? Thank you for a very helpful video.
