Go on Vacation to Appreciate the World. Organize Your Suitcase Like You Appreciate Your Clothes.
Packing cubes are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to keeping your suitcase at its best.
As someone who only very recently fell in love with packing cubes, I have to say that it’s like night and day. Previously, I employed the roll and tuck method, keeping my clothes tightly bound in spiral packages. But that lead to unraveling and ultimately my suitcase was a heap of wrinkled clothing. Packing cubes nestle neatly into each other in the most satisfying way.
If you’re anything like me, you’ll need some help when it comes to turning your suitcase into the perfect Tetris board. Here are a handful of things to add to your packing routine so that you can keep your clothing and accessories in their places.
