Did you know that when you're packing your clothes probably about sixty percent of the volume can re, can be reduced by just following a few quick steps. First of all, let's take your garments. You see here I'm taking up about a twelve by twelve area with this particular garment. Here's a trick that l learned when I traveled a lot and like to go lightly. Roll your clothing. First of all, it will; believe it or not, if you don't mush em', it will keep things from getting wrinkled, but notice; it takes up exactly half to one third of the space. That's good. Now, when you're packing your toiletries definitely go with the travel size. You can't beat it. They're cheap. And get yourself a clear bag. You'll zoom right through any checkpoints for security that way. Keep your other things in a nice small, neat pack that you need, as well, and if you have anything like a hat why not put it on your head. It's only going to take up space in your suitcase. Those are some efficient packing tips for you. Hope you're going to have a wonderful trip. Keep those in mind, and you will save a lot of time and space. I'm Russ Handler. Have a great day."
