If you’re away for a week or two, whatever you do, pack light．
This especially applies if you are on a tour and are moving from place to place, when heavy luggage has to be loaded and unloaded from taxis, trains and planes．Unnecessary heavy luggage will spoil your mood before you’ve even arrived．Here are a few tips to keep your pack and your look light and carefree．
1．Use a medium-sized case, or, best of all, a good-sized carry-on case to prevent long waits at the luggage carousel(传送带)at the airport．
2．Lay out everything you think you’ll be needing on your trip, and then pack half of the items．Remember, less is more!Hardly will you require more than two pairs of shoes on any summer trip, one sweater, a couple of T-shirts or tops, two pairs of trousers－or even better for women, two of your dresses－a swimsuit and underwear．If you do take separates, make sure they are matching colors so that you can get maximum(最大限度的)use by mixing them．
3．Take only the necessities．Most hotels have such things as soap and shampoo now, so don’t trouble with a ton of toiletries unless you have sensitive skin．
4．Do you really need to take that hairdryer?If you don’t want to give your hair a rest, then don’t forget to pack an adapter(转接器)to make sure you’ll still be able to use your hairdryer．
5．Line the bottom of your suitcase with trousers, letting the legs hang over the outside edge．Then pack the rest of your travel gear(用具), with lighter materials on top．Wrap trouser legs over the pile．
6．Use the inside of shoes to save space：put underwear, your swimsuit and a rolled up belt in them．
7．Wrap anything that might break or leak in plastic bags to prevent accidents．
8．Relax－you’re on vacation!
