Sarah’s Packing Checklist
All of Sarah’s favorite things mentioned in this blog are available in here. This packing checklist should get you started but you should personalize it to your needs. The key to packing smart is to pay attention to the overall weight, which means you should keep track of the weight of individual items. Use a sharpie and mark things as you weigh them.
Don’t know where to start or what things weigh? Get Sarah’s custom packing app Packupine, which will help you generate a packing list from your criteria and add the weight up for you.
