Packing Tips?

Question

Ok, I'm going to Ibiza to stay in a luxury villa with my boyfriend and some of our friends (mostly male) for a week. Only problem is, being the only girl, i don't want them to make fun of how much stuff I bring! My boyfriend says just to bring the 'essesntials'. what are essentials for ibiza? please help me some one, i nearly always break my back at the airport!!!

Answer 1

-while packing take mix n match kinda stuff wid u, like a top that matches 2-3 trousers/skirt/shorts.

-Take shampoos/conditioner/daily moisturiser etc in small packings, dun 4get ur sunscreen big bottle n after sun

- take one comfortable trainer/flat leather footwear to match all ur clothings, 1 flat beach slipper n 1 evening footwear....but take only the comfi ones.roll up ur socks in the shoes, u can put a few other cream/moisturiser bottles in a cellophine packing n put them in ur shoes to save space.

-roll up ur clothes while packing to save space n wrinkles.

-Take clothes that are easy to wash and dry, as little ironing as possible.

-take only those stuff u feel or u really wear at home

-take 2-3 sets of bathing suits

pack basic n heavy things-like books, daily cosmetics,toothbrush,important tel nos. etc in ur hand bags n a spare clothing also.

-don't forget your camera.

-put all ur cosmetics/moisturisers/creams in clear, plastic, resealable bags, so you can see what's inside without scrambling around for it.

-Always keep a photocopy of all ur important documents at home n carry photocopies of your passport/visa's/atm/ in ur bags different from the one having originals.

-take safety pins/a lil first aid kit n a travel sewing kit.

-buy pack of wet face tissues n keep them in ur hand bag.

i know u will have a good time in ibiza

Answer 2

I don't know what the essentials are, but if you fold all your clothes sideways(left to right), then roll them, it'll save space and help stop them wrinkling.



Never mind what the boys say. You are all woman and need womanly things, so bring what ever the hell you like girl!!!



In fact - I'd bring even more just so none of them felt left out, and had nothing to carry for you! No point going on holiday with all this man if your not gonna use them for something!! LLF



Have a good time though!

Start packing early, it takes much longer than you think. Start with winter gear if it’s summer or vice versa, you’ll find there are loads of things that you don’t use every day and that can be packed in advance.

If you are moving yourself start gathering boxes. Either pick up free boxes from local supermarkets, or order packing boxes online, this is slightly more expensive but it’s guaranteed and you can usually choose the box sizes you want.

1. LUGGAGE



If your suitcase or bag is more than eight years old, the first trip you should take is to check out more modern luggage. The latest fabrics and plastics are much lighter, more durable and far easier to wheel or to carry than they've ever been.

2. TAKE A SMALL DAY-BAG TOO



A lightweight smaller bag is also a necessity, either a little shoulder day-pack or a bag with a strap that can be worn across the body, for going out at your destination.

Answer 5

Some things you can share with your friends, like: toothpaste, shampoo, bath liquid soap, (make sure one of you bring)



If you can find paper panties at your convenient stores, bring more than a week, so you don't have to hang your laundries around, as all are guys.



Napkins and tissues are just in case. Nobody will bring it for you.



If you wash your clothes daily, bring 2 extras will do. If you go for one week, you only have to wash 4 days.

Better still, if you don't wash your clothes.



Anyways, have a nice vacation!

P.S. don't forget your birth-control pills! just in case, well... who knows?!

Answer 6

This won't help with the weight of your case unfortunately but get some airtight packing bags (Target's very good) It won't make the bag any lighter but you will be able to cram in a lot more stuff. Or, failing that , buy it while you're there

Answer 7

Lucky you going off to Ibiza,anyway all you really need to pack are shorts underwear and bikinis plenty of sun screen and your hair drier .

Answer 8

When I went travelling, they advised me to pack my bag, half it, then half it again. I'm so glad I did! Decide on a bag size and what doesn't fit in doesn't go. You can always buy stuff there if you need it.

Answer 9

My husband and I go to different places using his motorcycle one way I pack as much as I want is to roll clothes this also prevents wrinkles in clothes

Answer 10

Leave the drugs at home, you can buy plenty when you're there. Seriously, you don't need much, swimwear and sarongs are okay for just about anywhere.

Answer 11

Buy whatever there, they have shops you know.

Just take what your standing in.... and a carry on bag only, no waiting for baggage on arrival.
