sometimes I think H is more woman then I am

While discussing a trip we are taking in a couple months. We will be flying in on MOnday evening, stay there Tues, Weds, Thurs and will be flying home Friday morning. So essentially 3 days.

Me: "Since we are only going to be there a few days we could probably get away with just taking carry-ons and not have to check anything"

H: "I just don't see how I can fit everything I am going to need in that little carry-on."

Me:

He sounded like such a high maintance snobby woman...

To be fair, he is a bigger guy and therefore has big clothes but still...it's 3 days.

lol. That's funny. Tell him he doesn't have nearly as many things to worry about as you! Like hair stuff, make-up, etc.

I love traveling with a carry-on only. We started a few years ago and it's a breeze now. We recently traveled to Europe for 4 weeks with one backpack each.

We are the same way. I can just pack lightly and plan on clothes that can be worn with multiple outfits, etc, make do with fewer things.

He packs so much shit it drives me crazy.

They were hiking backpacks so around 55 liters each. We had to check the luggage because of the height, but they were still pretty small. I won't lie though... it took some work and strategizing! I crammed some shit in there that barely fit, lol.

I'm the queen of packing! For 3 days, I could easily pack a carry on for myself and H. Granted, I usually carry a big purse, so stuffing random odd and ends in it helps

I know exactly what you mean. For this past weeks kw trip I packed 2 pairs of shorts 3 tanks and my bathing suites. Dh had 3 shorts 3 tanks 2 t shirts 2 nice shirts we ECh did have sandals and sneakers. I did carry on only and we checked one big bag ( we had snorkel gear and toiletries too). My thought with his packing was "wtf???"
