Packing - COVID-Style
The essential packing list above still holds true, but during a worldwide pandemic, it’s necessary to add a few more things to your list....
You'll want to pack as many shoes as you can stuff into a backpack or suitcase, but resist the urge. Every travel agent, blog, friend, or family member is going to tell you the same thing, "don't take too many things." The number of items will depend, of course, on how long you are going to be gone....or how much laundry you really want to do!
Dressing in black or monochromatic is great while on vacation with being able to mix and match a lot of different outfits.
Here are some suggestions to start, broken into three categories: Essentials, Maybe, Definitely Not.
Please comment below with your own packing recommendations!
