38-packing-correctlyVery often our work requires a great number of business trips; that is why every person who plans to go on a business trip needs to know how to pack things correctly.

Never pack as you go. Do not throw the things in your suitcase in the last minute, because more likely you will forget some stuff. It is recommended making up a list with the most essential things. This list will help you not to grab things that you don’t need and to be focused on the things you need.

Be sure not to take clothes that do not match. Organize your outfit at home; choose simple colors that can be matched with different colors and styles. Choose very basic things that can be appropriate for different meetings and gatherings.

Save space while packing. Shoes are the best place for small things like stockings. Don’t forget to use this space.

Also place your clothes into plastic bags, because plastic helps to reduce frictions. In plastic bags your clothes will be less wrinkled.

Good luck in your business trips!
