 Welcome to My YouTube channel



In This Video, We Will Talk About Packing hacks for stress-free travel

Having to fit everything we need into a single bag and worrying we’ll forget something essential can quickly turn a fun vacation into a stressful one. Fortunately, there are ways to make packing easier and less stressful. From packing cubes and compression bags to simple packing techniques, these packing tips will help you get packed in no time!



1: Maximize Your Space With an Expandable Backpack

An expandable backpack is the perfect solution for those looking to maximize their packing space when traveling. The Knack Pack is my expandable backpack of choice.


An expandable backpack has a unique design that gives you the flexibility to adjust the size of your bag based on what you need to bring. Bags like the Knack Pack also come with tons of pockets to help you keep your luggage organized. Plus, the backpack’s expandable design will ensure you have the space you need without adding extra weight.


An expandable backpack is so versatile. Whether you’re headed on a short weekend getaway or a days-long vacation, an expandable backpack is an ideal choice for anyone looking to maximize their packing space.



2: Roll Your Clothes to Make More Room

When you’re packing for a vacation, you should roll your clothes instead of folding them. The rolling method is one of the best ways to save space in your suitcase.


By rolling your clothes, you can better organize the items in your suitcase, and it will also help protect your clothes from wrinkles. Since rolling your clothes conserves more space than folding, you can pack more items and make sure you have everything you need for your vacation.



3: Make Use of Packing Cubes to Keep Clothes Organized

Packing cubes is another great way to keep your clothes, electronics, and toiletries organized when packing for a vacation. Use packing cubes to separate out each item — like tops, bottoms, underwear, and accessories — as an effective way to compartmentalize your belongings and maximize the space in your luggage.


With a suitcase, or expandable backpack, organized by packing cubes, you’ll be able to find and access your items quickly and effortlessly. Plus, packing cubes come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors and are usually lightweight, durable, and come in reusable materials, making them an eco-friendly way to stay organized while traveling.



4: Have a Packing Checklist So You Don’t Forget Anything

A packing list is an incredibly useful tool when it comes to preparing for a vacation. Take the time now to jot down everything you need to bring on your trip so that you can stay organized and avoid having to buy overpriced essentials when you travel.


With a packing list, you’ll avoid forgetting any important items, especially if you’re in a rush. When you have a list to refer to, you’re able to rest assured knowing that you won’t forget something essential like your passport or an extra pair of shoes.


Having a list handy can also make sure that you don’t overpack. A packing list may not be the most exciting part of planning for a vacation, but it’s a necessary tool for making sure everything goes smoothly.


Plus, once you’ve made your packing list, you’re set for every other trip you plan to take!



5: Wear Your Bulky Clothes to Save Precious Room in Your Luggage

When you’re packing for a vacation, bulky clothing like jackets, sweaters, boots, and other shoes can be a real space hog. But if you wear your bulky items, you can save precious room in your suitcase.


Not only will you save space, but wearing your bulky clothing will also keep them from getting wrinkled in your bag.


So make sure to layer when you travel, especially if you’re traveling in the winter or somewhere cold, opting for having your bulkier items as your airport outfit.



6: Buy a Bigger backpack (ignore what they say)

Some travel packing hacks you read online are rubbish. One that comes to mind is buying a small backpack that forces you to only carry the essentials.


Bad idea.


It sucks having to jigsaw your stuff into a tiny minimalist backpack day after day, bodyslamming it shut to smush everything down, hoping your zipper doesn’t snap. Talk about stress (especially when you’re in a hurry).


I hated my small bag so much that I gave it away and bought a bigger one. Best decision I ever made. With my new spacious bag, packing became a breeze. There’s only one caveat.


You need self-discipline. You must resist the urge to fill up that extra space with non-essential clothes and knick-knacks.


So, enjoy your big bag—but pack as if it were small. Your spine will thank you for it.



7: Never travel without packing cubes

If you don’t use packing cubes, what are you doing with your life? I literally cringe when I see people digging through a backpack full of loose clothes. Do yourself (and your sanity) a favor—buy some cubes!


For extra credit, use different colored cubes for each type of clothing. Need a shirt? Grab the blue cube. Shorts? The black cube. Undie-grundies? Silver one.


Isn’t organization great?



8: Ditch the top-loader

Top-loading backpacks are for hiking, not traveling. Imagine having to dump everything out of your bag multiple times each day because the one thing you need always seems to fall to the bottom. Uncool.


Believe it or not, packing/unpacking can actually be enjoyable —IF you have a backpack that completely unzips so you can see everything at once. (Here’s the trusty bag I use. I call her Delilah. She’s amazing.)

Yeah, I get it. On some trips, showers are scarce. You may have to re-use dirty clothes. It’s understandable. But for heaven’s sake, cover that rank with some spray!


(Note: Speaking of spray, get yourself some potent bug spray before leaving home. Skeeters suck.)



10: Travel-friendly snacks

Speaking of food, Never Ever hit the road without some travel-friendly snacks. It’s a recipe for disaster.


If you’re smart, you’ll even pack double snacks. Here’s why…


One weary night, I took a bus ride from Cali, Colombia down to Ecuador. It was meant to take 10 hours. Little did I know, the recent rainfall had caused a rockslide blocking the highway. I sat in that friggin bus for Twenty-Two hours, stuck in the middle of nowhere, somehow surviving off two measly granola bars.

 The Love of Christ for Us – Part 1: From the Birth to the Last Supper The story of Christ’s passion—the suffering and ultimate sacrifice of Jesus—did not begin with the betrayal in Gethsemane or the journey to Calvary.
