We travel a lot. I start a box a week or two ahead and toss stuff in; also notes of what not to forget. We use Rick Steve’s bags, either the soft backpacks or the rollers, depending on destination. I take things that I can mix and match - pants that go with a few tops, etc. I take lightweight stuff that I can wash overnight. I take a few shoes to change if I’m walking a lot. And hot curlers!! And then I weigh it and make it light over all. Last time my bag weighed 16 lbs for 4 weeks plus jacket. You can always buy stuff. Have fun. Rick Steves has great travel tips.
Drop me a note if you have further questions. You will not want to carry stuff. lightweight is best.
I may need to look into a ‘roller’ .. Or two.
Who says an old dog can’t change? Lol
