The hardest part you've ever done: you chose the destination, planned the trip, booked the hotel, and bought the tickets. When the boarding date approaches, it is time to complete the last tasks and, at that moment, a question is common: how to pack the suitcase
in the best way?

Learning how to pack a suitcase is a knowledge that is improved over time: the more you do, the more you learn the strategies that work for your needs.

Below are tips from Costa do Sauípe for you to strategically choose which items to take on your trip, avoiding excesses.

1. Travel clothes

After all, what should you pack in your suitcase? This is one of the biggest doubts at the beginning of the organization process. So, first of all, it's worth placing all the necessary items on top of the bed.

Regarding clothes, you can choose the pieces considering the tours you are going to take and, also, according to the climate and the period of stay. It's no use taking coats and boots to the beach, is it?

Another fundamental tip on how to pack a suitcase and avoid excesses is to think about the combinations that can be made with the clothes. Thus, you take fewer items, prioritizing those that will actually be used

2. Personal hygiene and accessories

If you plan to travel to the beach, for example, you can't forget to bring slippers and sunscreen, for example. However, those who are going to face a long, backpacking-style itinerary should not miss out on good sneakers.

Then, the next step in how to pack a suitcase is to separate the personal hygiene items and accessories. Face soap, repellent, creams and sunscreen are some essential items in the nécessaire. Also, pay attention to the shoes: it is common to carry more items than necessary and they end up taking up a lot of space in the
suitcase.

3. Suitcase size

Sometimes, we exaggerate not only the amount of clothes and accessories when packing the suitcase, but also its size. So, when choosing your luggage, look for one according to the time you are going to be away and the amount of items you really need to bring.

If you need agility, you can choose a backpack instead of the classic wheeled suitcase, which is more comfortable in the case of air transport. However, if you need more space, opt for larger models that can be shipped

4. Organizing items

After choosing clothes, accessories, hygiene items, and suitcase, it's time to learn how to organize travel bags. Wrapping t-shirts and pants, forming rolls, is a way to gain space and prevent clothes from sagging during the journey.

In addition, you can use different necessaires to store the items. That way, everything is more organized and easier to find, saving time when unpacking

5. Final checklist

This is the main tip on how to pack a suitcase strategically: choose only the necessary items. It's no use carrying a gigantic suitcase to spend just three days away. This will only cause you to carry a lot of weight and still risk losing your belongings during the tour.

Then, after completing the other four steps, make a list with everything you separated to put in the suitcase. Then, see if there are any excesses or if any indispensable item is missing. So you don't forget something important and still avoid unnecessary weight
