Packing light for 10 days..tips?

[Deleted member 4644]

I am going to europe for 10 days, staying in an apartment with people I know.

I usually am a heavy packer, but this time I want to go light, one med size duffel type thing.

Other than clothes, shaver, deodorant, what should I not forget?

As for clothes, I am thinking 3-4 shirts, 1 collar shirt, 1 pair of jeans, one pair of trousers, and two shorts. Maybe 7 pairs of undies and 7 pairs of socks.

Anything else?

Power adapter/converter for electric shaver, phone charger, etc.

Condoms and a camera.

Toothbrush? Porn mags? A woman?

MP3 player or book for the plane ride?

Deodarant etc. buy when you get there. Use a razor and soap instead of a shaver.

Don't take the jeans if you want to packlight. They will add 2 or 3 extra pounds to your load.

If you want to take a jacket, wear it.

if they have an apt they probably have access to a washer/dryer

just pack whatever and wash what you need

4 shirts, including the collar shirt. No underwear (FREEEEEBALLLLINNNN!), 3 pairs of socks, wtf are trousers so don't pack them, wear your pair of jeans, 1 pair of shorts and if you need anything buy it while your over in Europe.

I have a few nice looking reversible shirts, (Polo type), plain color on one side, patterned on the other, with matching fold down collars, so 4 shirts = 8.
