BTW, one “obstacle” that I had to overcome on the “way to lightness” came when I had to share room with a colleague. Let’s say that, since then, my habit of doing the evening laundry has become public domain…

I also keep toiletries and a 3-1-1 bag packed at all times. Selecting what to bring also is pretty quick for me. My biggest problem is selecting which bag to use. I have the luxury (and problem) of having too many bags that I really like – any and all of which can be used for a given trip. I am always getting ready to get rid of most of the bags to eliminate this issue but just can’t bring myself to sell/give away even one of the bags. Sigh…..

I’m a quick packer but what takes time is deciding what I want to wear. I have a range of standard travel clothing but not every trip is the same and I also like to change things around a little. The actual packing is quick. What also takes time is to decide which bag to take. This is a challenge I like and I make it more complicated than necessary. ;)

Pre-packed toiletries separated in hardware and liquids are a must.

If every trip wasn’t a little different and if I didn’t feel obliged to tend to my bag harem in a fair rotation, I could even just have one or two bags entirely pre-packed. But that would take the fun out of the planning.

Cheers,

Aww, knock it off. Your Thailand trips are reasonably frequent ( ! ) and clearly well planned.

I have it easy – almost all of my trips nowadays are quick in-and-out, 1 or 2 night deals, and they became routine a long time ago. Now the only question is which bag I’ll use. But… somehow, still fun. Go figure.
