Make Most Of My Bag?

Question

i'm going on my 2.5 week guatemala trip tomorrow, and might be staying for alittle longer, but depends. i'm a streetwear freak, so i got a lot of tees, jeans, and shorts (for athletic activity)..so lets say i'm wearing a tee and shorts.

and i would HAVE to say i'm bringing 2-3 pairs of jeans, about one handful of socks, 2 handful of underwear, like 2 handfuls of wife beaters, and i REALLY got atleast 10+ tees i wanna bring...and i gotta fit in my slippers in there too...and the bag is like 12 inches width and 22 inches length...

and i got about 6 shorts.. >__>

and no vacuum T_T

idk how i can fit it

Answer 1

You can always wash underwear?

You don't need that much, 7 pairs.

Same with socks.

As for tee's make sure there's only one of each color, dont bring two black shirts, for example.

Answer 2

Pack less, get a different bag, or try rolling everything up really tight to create more space.

Answer 3

ROLL IT. As tightly as possible, roll up each individual piece of clothing after folding it in half and pack your bag. I'd bring some travel-sized Febreeze, too, to freshen up your clothes once you get there.

Answer 4

i go to camp for a couple weeks at a time and i know exactly what your dilemma is. well first of all, you might want to consider getting a bigger duffel bag, from target or walmart or somewhere. for 2+ weeks you're going to need a lot of clothes. i usually put everything into piles either by type (like shirts, shorts, etc.) or by what im going to wear on each day (used more when clothing styles and level of classiness is changed b/t days like casual to business casual to dressy). then place the most flexible items or ones you wont need for a while on the bottom, then begin layering on everything else. since you seem like more of a jeans and t-shirts girl, pack your nicer stuff first then just stuff everything else you might want or need into the bag afterward. side pockets and compartments are great for this type of thing, especially socks, underwear, and small tees or tanks.

here are some places and sites where you can get a larger bag:

(all from target and target.com)
