Course Syllabus

I've had a few people ask me if there was a syllabus for this course, and this is the best that I could come up with. I've found it very useful.

Useful Packing Articles

Hello again - Fellow World Explorers,

I recently heard some great advice from a cousin of mine who's traveled to Europe several times, Thailand, and is gearing up for the Philippines. "Pack your bags. Then, take out half your clothes and take twice the money." The reasoning was this, you'll buy clothes, souvenirs, and memrobillia there (thus spending money) and will need the extra space (from taking out half your clothes) to put them.

Also I found this great artical on Yahoo! from the AP -
Get the most from your carry-on bag

I plan on bringing most of my stuff in my carry on, and an empty suit case to bring stuff back in. How many times will we get to shop in Italy!?!?

In this article there is a link to this page http://www.smartpacking.com/index.php?cat_id=5389 and I found it really useful.

As for comments on this post - list how you're planing to pack and any little tips you have.

Cheers!
Susan
