I took this to heart too. We are doing the National Parks and I'm hoping for a carry on only. He only ever uses carry on. I ordered linen pants and have shorts and light shirts. I am going to try...thanks for inspiration
I got 3 great pieces for my July trip thanks to you. Old Navy. White tops for strip and anything else for white…ordered little white sweater fir dress but could use my white denim jacket…thanks for inspiration
You make a very compelling argument for carry - on, Traci! And I’m seriously impressed! I am literally packing as we speak and I honestly don’t know how I could just bring a carry on. I’m only going to Florida for 5 nights and already I’m busting out of the large suitcase. And it’s so silly because I probably will only wear a fraction of what I pack. I’m taking notes, though! Maybe I’ll whittle away enough to have a very light checked bag at least 😊
LOL. I’d love to bring so much more than I can squeeze into my carry-on, but hey, it does stop me from packing for the apocalypse (aka 5 days somewhere warm). I just have NO PATIENCE. The thought of standing at the baggage carousel makes my skin crawl. Clearly, I’ve got some personal work to do 😂. I have faith in you! Thank you for supporting my work, love 💕
Yes to carry on only when my husband and I travel. With the kids we still check. We have one small enough for a car seat still, so if we have to check that anyway…..but I am looking forward to the day when we all pack carryons….
Honestly I love a little hybrid model. The day we stopped packing car seats and strollers completely changed my life. When your day comes, we will celebrate 🫶🏻😂
Discussion Questions…
What are some of your favorite pieces from this post?
Do you check bags or refuse?
And if you were a college athlete, what was your Airport uniform?
Great packing tips! I love reading these older posts!
As a proud "team carry-on only girl," this was a fun practical read. I laughed. I rolled my eyes. I laughed again.
From you that truly means the world to me. I feel like you are at the top of my list of people I'd love to do a literary duet with. CARRY-ON 4 LIFE!!!
