I am guilty of being a perfectionist. Similarly many woman are obsessed with minutiae when they travel. Here are simple packing solutions to make you less fraught when you join The Women’s Travel Group.
Leave home most make up. Honestly no one cares in Florence, if your skin glows less without your serum.
Wear socks twice, no one will mind; there are no socks’ police in Japan.
Tiny spot on your tee shirt? Enjoying your bistro meal on the Cote D’Azur, no one sees it. The others are looking at the dessert menu.
Unmatched clothing? In some fashion circles, the choice might be perfect.
Sneakers are worn? Leave them in your hotel room for someone else to enjoy. Note: some hotels ask you to leave a note saying they are being disgarded.
Rain wary? A shower cap under a baseball hat and $dollar store cover up will mark you as a Omani marathon finisher.
Too many charge cards? Bring 1 Visa, 1 Amex and 1 debit card. Leave the rest at home where they can do no financial damage.
Wads of cash make you feel safe? No one wants cash. The only place plasticis still loved is at the ATM.
A purse, don’t be Queen Elizabeth. You do not need a purse, get a cross body money holder with enough room for your phone, and essentials.
Too many small items? Consolidate stuff especially cosmetics. If you are going carry on, arrange your liquids ahead of time per the rules. If not your risk a long wait at TSA and a lot of new enemies. View our upcoming tours and early bird specials here. Contact us here.
