    "Hi everyone, I'm Russ Handler, and I just love to travel. I'm sure you do as well, but you know, the biggest mistake that travelers make these days is over packing, and a lot of people, just let's face it, like to have a lot of stuff with them, and for those folks, here is the best way to get the most out of the space that you're going to packing in. Let's take my old school suitcase here. First of all, take a look at this garment right here. You see it takes up almost about a square foot in space. Now, let me tell you something. If you were to take this garment right here and neatly fold it, just like so, along with all your other garments, you'll then notice it takes up a little less than one third of the space that it took up before. A great tip, and it'll also help to keep your clothes from getting wrinkled. Now, secondly, when you're planning to pack your toiletries, make sure they're simple and make sure that they're easily stowed in your suitcase, because this way again, you're taking up the minimal amount of room that you need. Also make sure that your toiletries are easily stowed, and then just plan on packing just enough to get you through, and that'll keep the weight down, that'll keep the drama down, and you're going to have a great time on your vacation. I'm Russ Handler, and that's how it's done."
