Always only carryon. Always. If it’s too full with souvenirs I check it it on the way home but usually not. Pack for one week and wash when I am at friends

Or find a laundromat while I have good dinner. Did this in a 3 month trip all over several years ago. Layers and make sure you can mix and match. One pair speakers and one shoe which is nice comfy sandals in summer and boots in winter. Always wear the bulky shoe for flight. Always take chargers. Meds. Essentials in backpack or handbag in case you have to check bag at gate. Window for long or early flight. Aisle on return short flights. Take cream to hidrate and face cream when I remember. Always have light sweater or jacket in summer and down foldable for winter. Also a scarf that can be used as blanket or to wrap my neck and to enhance and outfit and cover shoulders for temples. Download good books on kindle or iPad depending on trip. Kindle is light to take in purse and for beach reading. iPad with kindle app for longer trips to also check email or google. Use TripAdvisor for all reviews and to find good food. Plan what I want to see and eat ahead of time is the best way to get excited and get good tips. Love local tips on walking tours. Usually do hop on bus first time to get the sights and then visit highlights. Ando great to rest feet or take nap on bus after lunch.

I'm addicted to watching Forensic Files in the hotel room.
