    Great video showing that everyone can travel affordably. I travel frequently. One tip is to keep the packing list with you on the trip. Make notes of things you forgot, or that you would like to have next time. When you get home, note those things that you that packed but did not use. I love my under seater bag and if you can afford it, I good set of compression packing cubes will make a world of difference. Contact lens cases from the Dollar Tree are also great for creams and lotions in small amounts. You can even fill them with toothpaste for short trips. I pack my liquids in a quart ziplock bag and pack the purse organizers empty and flat. I bring an extra empty mesh bag for anything that I want to hang and keep in the shower.

      Yes! I traveled frequently in 2022 and got it down to a science. Pretty much like you describe. Half or less the toiletries she shows here.

    Shower caps are great for shoe covers or slippers.
    I used the smaller containers that you can put salad dressings for my creams. But also used the contact lens carriers to hold liquid makeup, moisturizer, etc.
    Takes up way less space. Packing cubes are great. When I went to the UK I brought water bottles which just ended up being wasted space.
    Sanitizing wipes for everything touchable on the plane like trays, armrests, belts and buckles.
    I put my meds like Advil in snack bags and then it all went into one larger ziplock bag.
    Also the large ziplock bags can be used to store clothes and squish the air out.

    Great video! From one grandma to another you might think about buying some of your regular toiletry items at your destination and leaving them there for your next visit. This would really cut down on your packing and the weight of your luggage.

      I leave a bag with my sister in Massachusetts. My sister from Masschusetts leaves one with me in Florida. So does my brother from California. Now, catching JetBlue or Spirit to travel is with a backpack.

    I use the Dollar Tree shower caps as shoe covers. Also, if you put a damp towel in the dryer with your dry clothes,it helps remove wrinkles

    It can be done! I went on a 10-day Alaska cruise/tour in this size bag. I used compression cubes, and fortunately my husband carried the laptop. Traveling this light makes everything so much easier. I admit I sometimes check a bag that is the size most consider carry on, but not very often. And I don't bother fighting for the overhead bins. I will be using your ideas with the mesh bags and plastic purses to see how that works. Thanks for the tips!

    I love the suction cup idea! I also decant as many liquids/lotions as possible. However, there are much smaller containers available, especially for things like serums and foundation. You can save even more space. Great video though!

    Leave this crap at your grandkids house I have a bin under my children’s well in my grandchildren‘s bathroom kind of in the back and that’s grandma‘s bed so when I’m there I have all of my stuff that makes me feel at home. It’s also my daughter’s house, which makes it a little bit easier because you know we can borrow things but take what you want and leave it there I even leave lacroix water at my daughters house and my grandson closet grandma’s water so I leave everything there I don’t I could just pack a couple clothes and then go to my kids house and be very comfortable. You’ll be there a lot so leave what you need to make yourself feel at home.

    Why I said the best? Because I found more than one thing that I just found out by now!
    That is the side behind the inside lining with zipper to put your shoes and max the space and mesh bags instead of packing cubes! Brilliant!!
