"Hi, Chrissy Lyons on behalf of Expert Village. Today we're going to be talking about helpful hints for travel packing. Depending on where you're going, what you're doing, what you're taking with you. And to start with you have to figure what kind of a bag you're going to need to put all what you're taking with you, too. What we have to determine is the amount of things you're taking with you on the trip and how big of a piece of luggage you're going to need. Now as you know there's all kinds of different sizes of suitcases. You've got from the very, very large to the very, very small including this size which we call a carry-on bag. Sometimes that'll do you just fine. Other times you need to move up a step to the next size. Then there's one yet bigger than this. And then bigger yet again. We'll be back in a minute to talk about each and every one of the sizes and which one we will use for which part of the trip."
