It has become a game for me to take as little with me as possible, and as a female traveller I take great pride in my skills in this area

PS. I could probably teach classes on this, new career maybe?
Whoever attended your packing academy and then attended mine; would probably demand a refund from you. I manage with one pair of shoes apart from those in which I travel. They take up too much room. I get out what I want to take and put it in the spare room. The next morning halve it. I still don’t wear it all.
Going on a Tier Point run which involves all sorts of stops and changes is important here. This is not, from which I read, somewhere that usually much time for your bags to make connections. Time spent waiting at Carousels and filling in forms when the wretched bags do not arrive is not why I travel. When I arrive, I want to be away. I could care less what other people think of my look. There is only one man who I dress for and I’ve slept with him these past 37 years (yes, I was a child bride). Oddly enough I have no idea what is in his rollaboard, nor has he any idea of what is in mine.
