Packing for Europe

Thursday, May 15, 2014

The day finally came! I packed for my European adventure today. It's a good thing I started a few days before I actually leave. I realized a few things that I still need to pick up and this will also give me time to unpack a few things I don't actually need :) It was a little tricky trying to pack for six weeks away; two of those weeks are strictly business casual/professional which made packing all the more joyous. Eventually, however, I think I finally got everything I needed and still have a little bit of room for souvenirs!

I am only taking one suitcase and a huge backpack. Here's my packing list:

Touring

4 shirts
2 skirts (one can double for Oxford)
2 pairs of shorts
1 pair of jeans
1 sweater
2 t-shirts
1 pair of gym shorts
Tennis shoes
Walking shoes (ballet flats)

Oxford Wardrobe

5 shirts
2 pencil skirts
1 pair of slacks
1 blazer
1 black belt

3 pairs of socks
Straightener

Camera
2 lenses
Extra batteries
