As i travel a lot here's a tip for her, do it twice. The second time around she'll find she swaps a lot of the stuff for other items she'll have forgotten the first time around.
I go extra light and my companion over packs. Way, way, WAY over packs. I always leave some extra room in my suitcase, because I know we will need it.
Don't forget the plastic bag for dirty laundry! Otherwise, you will be like that thread in the nonromantic relationships where someone did laundry on last day of vacation. Oh, what a stir that caused!
There's something strange in the sky this morning- the sun.

Miss J is off with a load of her friends to Turkey tomorrow and she is so excited.
I just remembered that she'll need an electrical adaptor and hopefully she'll have everything she needs.
Today's peeve is;

The thing that would stress me the most would be forgetting makeup and hair stuff. Other than those things, at least I'd be fully dressed for the trip to go shopping if I forgot plenty of underwear or needed other clothes or shoes.
Just got back from a two week vacation. I must say, I did a pretty good job of not overpacking too much. Although I didn't wear a pair of jeans and a pair of tennis shoes!
We were in the Turks and Caicos on Grand Turk to get certified for scuba diving. We landed but our luggage did not. It took a day of jumping up and down at the airport to get our suitcases. They were brand new and one of them was damaged. We had to cancel our scuba class and go with the resort class so we could dive anyway. It taught us a lesson about packing. We only travel with the largest carry on we can get away with.
Location: The Circle City. Sometimes NE of Bagdad.

Thankfully we are light packers, if we do forget something we can usually pick it up at our destination.
