In today's video I'm sharing how I pack for 2 weeks in a carry-on bag only. I'm travelling to London and Copenhagen in the middle of February, so layering and laundry is going to be key! I always pack the same way, no matter if I'm travelling for 1 week or 1 month.

Let me know where you’re travelling next!! ✈️✈️
Prague to Vienna on a bike tour, with lots of urban exploration at either end. Btw, the long underwear (landsend or llbean) can double as workout wear or pjs in a pinch.
Off to Vegas for a week! Thanks for the great tips!! 🎉🎉🎉then in April to Sweden so all your suggestions will come in handy! Tysm ❤
Hello Dear I'm not selling anything but May I Know about your editing means Have you an editor or You do it from yourself ❤❤
Atacama Desert in April 🙌
France - Bordeaux and Provence
😊
Just a tip,never put your passport in your carry on suitcase. If you gate check it and forget things could get interesting upon arrival in another country. There’s also recently been an increase in, in flight thefts. Valuables should be kept in your personal item as thefts happen while you’re sleeping and opportunists can take your bag if you put it in the overhead bin away from your actual seat, which happens a lot more often than you think. Love your packing tips for different climates and vibes,safe travels😊
Yesss good call! Thank you!
And don't forget to take a photo of the key pages in the passport if you need (heaven forbid!) to work with the consulate if it gets stolen. Happened to a friend while in transit.
Agree never leave anything of value by itself... dont trust anyone anymore
I’d never put my passport more than 1 foot away from me while traveling 😳
@@user-vx2pp2io7m oh yes, always have copies of IDs and passports and i have a strictly back up CC in case i lose my wallet (which has happened to me).
I like the 5-4-3-2-1 method, but I lean toward 7/3/2. Seven tops, three bottoms, two shoes/layering pieces. Twenty-one outfits before you even add in the layering pieces. This carries me for a three week trip, and more. I just plan for laundry while I travel. Shoes are the hardest part for me.
Also, I cheat. I don't count the outfit I travel in. Naughty, I know. Plus, I'm always cold on the plane so I wear many layers.
I hope you have a great time. Both London and Copenhagen are fabulous cities.
Haha I don’t count the plane outfit either 😉
I'm also a fan of more tops and fewer bottoms. Four pairs of dark coloured pants are going to feel very similar to each other and with only a small selection of tops, I'm going to feel like I'm wearing the same thing every day. A greater number of tops with fewer bottoms feels like more variety to me. Same goes for layering pieces. If it's cold and you've only got two, then you're essentially choosing from one of two outfits every day of your trip.
Thank you! I was just gonna ask about packing for 3 weeks to a month trip
Same!!!!!!!!! ❤
“One plain white tee, one plain black tee - because I like to party” had me laughing out loud 😂
I understand why ppl love and try to do "carry on only travel". I sometimes do that, too, if it's a business-related trip, and/or already visited the destination several times, or if I know the destination well, like REALLY well (and can communicate with locals without any problems).
That means, if the travel doesn't fit these categories, I usually bring my check-in suitcase.
I DO have two rules:
1. I pack some snacks (cuz you never know) & underwear for two nights along with the essentials in a carry-on.
2. I don't pack more than I can carry by myself.
Also, when I worked as a tour guide, I avoided bringing Jeans, because jeans are casual (not versatile) and heavy (it took ages to dry them).
I really love your method of packing, and I use the exact same folding methods for my clothes. However, I never pack more than 2-3 pairs of pants, even for a whole month abroad. I guess I just don't rotate that much between them when I'm away. And I don't pack that many socks & undies, I usually pack 4-5 pieces/pairs and a multipurpose, liquid travel detergent and wash them myself by hand so I can reuse them, because no matter where I'm staying or for how many nights, there's always a sink & water, and a pair of undies or socks always dries in time. :)
Yes laundry is so key!
Carry on only is the best! It's always helpful to see how someone else breaks down what they pack and how they do it - the detail is great, thank you! Headed to Italy in May! ✈
Some London recs - Spaniards Inn pub for a roast dinner, walk on Hampstead heath, dishoom for breakfast/brunch (egg&bacon naan) coal drops yard for pottering/weekend market x
this is by far the best minimalistic carry on packing video I’ve seen yet!
I’ve been enjoying your content a lot. You’re wise, generous and an inspiration ❤️💐
I swear by carry-on as well. Also while you're in Copenhagen be sure to take the train over to Malmö, Sweden. It's a lovely little city with a cute old city center and some lovely second hand shops. I'm a Canadian from Toronto currently living there :)
Just found you and in perfect timing! After getting married in June of this year we are headed to Italy and Greece and I have been trying to find the best packing method and this seems like it can fully encompass everything I need with enough variety!
Thank you. Safe travels✈️
Can't wait to see the 3 of you together - have a blast!
Perfect timing to see this video I’m heading to London in two weeks. Great tips.. I love London it’s the best! We will also be traveling out to the countryside. Thank for such a great video!
So helpful!!!! We do weekend trips a lot and I’ve been a massive over packer so this 54321 works great
This so good! Made everything clear and simple!!! You can always customize to your personal needs
✈️ I also travel with carry on only. My mom and I did 12 days in England with carry on luggage and we did just fine. Thanks for the inspo! I love packing videos.
My next trip is back to England end of April!
Yayyyy I’m in London right now! Love it! Enjoy your trip!
Great video - has me reconsidering cubes. For cooler weather, I find silk long underwear is a great addition as it takes up very little space and can make a big difference if it’s cooler than you anticipate.
I agree completely about the silk long underwear!!! It has saved me many times when I had variable weather and could only take minimal luggage.
Great video, thank you. Safe travels!
I am packing fort 4 days until portugal and determined to only bring carry on! This is super helpful love your content ♥
I hope you enjoy the trip. Can’t wait to see you in London.
This was so helpful. Thank you for sharing your tips ✈️
Going to Japan for the first time in November.
We’re moving out of our home and putting our stuff in storage and traveling by car and plane and visiting friends July-mid October. I am going to try your 5,4,3,2,1 method. Happy travels!
I love watching these videos. I do a lot of budget traveling, so many times I’ll do personal item only (unless a carry one comes with my ticket). My personal item backpack expands to carry on size.
Wow! This video is right on time for my 14 day overseas trip I am currently overpacking for 😅
Enjoy! ✈️
✈️✈️ my partner and I just bought tickets for our first ever Europe trip this fall. This video is just what I needed. :)
THANK YOU! I am TERRIBLE at packing and am doing a 2 weeks trip to England very soon. This is really helpful.
So organized! Enjoyed your video! ✈️
Great. We are going to Shetland and London in October. Will keep the wool knits even for the city.
🛩 Thanks for the packing list. I will be traveling this summer to visit my dad in Nebraska. Not the most or touristy place to be but, seeing my dad again after 7 years will be worth it. Take care and have fun.
Nebraska is ok. I live here so i have to say that. Just ok, not more than that
Nebraska is great. Born and raised here.
✈️✈️✈️ I’m going away for ten days to a cold country so this is really helpful 🙌🏻
Learning a lot from you and other commentators. I don’t really travel but I would like to one day and see myself avoiding as much stress as possible so carry on is the wisest choice. And for sure blazers are like my armor.
Heading to a yoga retreat in Mexico in 10 days. I'm looking forward to getting warm! ✈️ 🏝
✈️ really useful ideas. I’m traveling to Japan later this year and I am definitely looking for ideas on how to pack better only a carry on.
✈️ I haven’t travelled o/s since 1990! But I do visit family out of the area, and for me packing is always a hard thing to do ,so this is a good advice and I will definitely try it!
Great video, thank you! I would have loved to see footage of how exactly you fit the blazer and the sweater in the same compartment as all the other clothes.
Have a great trip 🎉
Midsummer/ Jaanipaev in Tallinn. Fretting over wardrobe choices!
✈️✈️✈️ so much travel coming up- Texas, Colorado, Utah, mass. Loved the video.
I wish you a great trip!! Your video really comes at the best time since I'm leaving tomorrow!✈️✈️
Have a great trip!
Smooth travels!
Great video! ✈ Going to Italy this spring & will be using my Monos carryon Pro for the first time.
✈️ Greece in October; thanks this was helpful!
✈️✈️✈️ this is perfect timing for my Florida trip I’m currently over packing for 😂 I’m definitely going to try the 54321 method! I used it last time I traveled and it helped a lot, but also I was super stressed because of those “just in case” feelings. I’m hoping as I do this method again it’ll be easier this time! 🤞🏼🤞🏼
Love the tips people are leaving. I’ll be in Italy next month.
Years ago I went to London for six days and then a month in Egypt. This was in February. Obviously, the weather would be quite different. I found this thin, yet effective, long underwear with a matching t-shirt., and added a cardigan. These items allowed me to bring a lighter wardrobe and jacket. There was a colder day in Cairo, so it worked out.
✈️ ✈️ ✈️ can’t wait to see what you all wore.
I just returned from 7 days in London, carryon only. I packed 3 pairs of jeans and 6 sweaters no problem. However, departing Heathrow for the US: you cannot use the TSA liquids bag you use. I use the same one from Amazon . Everything must go in a quart ziplock which they hand out at the airport if you don’t have one. And there are tables you can change your stuff to the ziplock bag - and a lot of people have to do it. Just good to be aware ahead of time.
This is awesome & really helpful because I struggle with just in case.
Loved this video! I packed very similar for the trip I am currently on - spending a week in Italy. Home for me is the United States.
Safe travels! ✈️
Great video!!!! I got the family down to backpack only and headed to Death Valley
✈️ yes!! Only carryon for me. My next trip is Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo and Bergen. Mid May!! Can’t wait! Love the tips!! 2 weeks in a carryon is doable. I also bring dehydrated laundry soap sheets and wash things in sinks when I need a refresh.
I was in Stockholm, Oslo and Bergen last May! I had the best time, I loved exploring and the overall vibe. I hope you booked the train from Oslo to Bergen because it was the highlight by far! 😊
✈️ I love your practical tips! You aren’t missing out anything and will stay warm! I also travel carry on only and took it with me for 8 days in Ireland.
Safe travels!!❤
✈️✈️ going to singapore soon for a week with just my backpack! this is really inspiring ♥️
✈️ Thank you!! I’m really trying to work on carry-on only 😅
✈️✈️✈️
I never travel anywhere but if I'm to travel from city to city, I tend to over pack and never get to wear half of what I brought with me. I've been trying to figure out how to pack lightly. I'm glad I came across this video, and you talked about the 5,4,3,2,1 packing method. I'll be incorporating that into my next travel packing. Thank you :-)
Thank you so helpful ✈️ ❤
Love doing carry on only- simply more manageable and less stress! I do a carry-on for me and an even tinier carry-on/personal item for my 1 and 3 year olds to share and it works great! Plus when it’s just me with two littles I can manage it all 😂
Very organized and efficient ! Would be nice to see a pop of colour with 1 extra top . Enjoy your trip!
Love your laptop sticker! 💙💛✈
Christina I am always always looking forward to your videos so so much and I really really can't wait to watch this vlog you are my truly truly inspiration🥹💗🥹💗
Thank you Mansoor! ❤
Love that your rug was feeling ~wavy~
My very own magic carpet! 😂
✈️ I've just come back from a ten-day trip to Brasil. Also a light packer here!!
Love from Argentina
❤
Stuff the down jacket into the handbag…. Saves both. 😊
✈️✈️✈️ This video is great inspiration for my 8-day trip to Tokyo! I wanted to just have a carry-on, but I was worried if I'd be able to do it because, like you, I'll also need to bring warmer layers and maybe account for the rain. Seeing you pack for your 10-day trip in just a carry-on gives me reassurance that I can pack for my 8-day trip :') your suitcase seems to fit so much though. I have packing cubes, but my suitcase always seems to run out of room so easily...
OMG! You need to absolutely keep it! Whether it's true or not, this is special to you. People create packages, packages do not create people. Rock it girl, salute *esluxs*
Perfect timing!! I have 3 trips in March/April. I only like to travel with a carry on and personal item. Enjoyed the video and the tips. Ill be headed to Kansas City, Gulfport MS, and Cleveland OH.
Excellent! Thank you 🙏🏾
Good video. Just got back from Belize (amazing) and going to Clarksdale, MS (music festival) in April.
✈️ Always enjoy your videos
Great video! Question- what will you wear for working out? I always find that is I want to workout I can’t do a carryon.
✈✈ planning to travel to Atlanta later this spring for about a week, and I am excited to put the 5-4-3-2-1 method into practice then!
🛩 Another very nice video. Have a great trip.
My next trip is to Canada. Leaving the Arizona summer to spend May through September up north. I will need a lot more stuff, but this still gave me some good ideas on how to streamline my packing for 5 months. Thank you! Enjoy the UK and Europe!
Whereabouts in Canada will you be going? Escaping the dry heat for super humid heat 😂
Great video!! I'd love to see how you'd style that vest, because I have no idea how you wear one of those without looking supremely unfashionable 😅
Thanks Christina! I used to travel so much and have always been an over packer, not to mention the anxiety packing would cause! I have kids though so I would probably have to add a Tide to go pen 😂
✈Thank you! Great tips!
✈️✈️✈️ thanks for these tips.
My next 4 week long trip will be columbia with two different climate zones : Bogota, Cartagena snd Santa Marta😅
Thanks for the reminder to check the weather at my destination. We’re headed to Argentina, Buenos Aires as well as Bariloche. I had thought the weather would be about the same for both places but there’s a significant difference between the two cities.
And thanks for the packing list!✈️
You ll be welcome! Bariloche is one of the most beautiful places and BA city has lots to see!
@@mla701 Thank you! I’m excited to see both places. I’ve never been to South America and I hear that Argentina is a great first trip.
Thanks for doing a video on colder weather! So many minimalist packing videos are on summer… like of course you can travel light when you’re only bringing swimsuits and athleisure 👀
Great tips thanks ✈😊
✈London Paris Prague Great video, thanks! I appreciate a cold weather packing video!!
Have you traveled with that hair straightener before? In the past my flat iron did not work that well with a power converter. I am now shopping for dual voltage hair tools!
Great tips!!!
Welcome to London! 🤩 Sorry about this weather. 🤪
It’s warm I’ll take it! ☔️
Good tips! I'm next taking a tour to Austria, Switzerland, and Germany this summer. I remember the huge suitcases I took 40 years ago to Mexico and Europe. I travel so much lighter now, but I have a cpap, which is problematic. All you vloggers are so young and you don't need one yet. But that is going to be a problem for me. I really want to do carry on only with a backpack as we will have to be toting our own luggage. Videos such as yours and others' have helped me a lot.
Love your commitment for getting the gains😏💕
Love this but only saw the sports bra and the trainers go in. Did I miss the other gym wear?! 😮
Very helpful 😎I am flying from UK to Vancouver in June and we doing a Canada and US rv road trip.Have fun in London.x
Che spettacolo il camper! Noi viaggiamo in camper in Europa!
This was crazy helpful ❤going to Slovenia and Croatia this September 2024 ❤❤❤
This was very helpful, I’m off to London from Montreal, May 6 for 9 days. I’m only taking carry on luggage. You putting your puffer vest in there reminded me I have one with a hood. Did you carry an umbrella in your purse everyday? Or did you where a raincoat? I have a trench-coat I can bring. Getting ready to travel is so exciting! Thank you ❤
Cries in indecisive 😅 wish me luck!
Safe travels girlfriend!! You're going to have a blast!! Europe is just... 😍
❤❤❤❤❤
I went on a 11 day cruise in January... I over packed so much. Definitely will follow this. Thank you. Enjoy your trip!
✈Germany! Thanks for the video!
I think I love your green active pants! ❤ They are perfect for travel. What size are you wearing in them?
Hi. This was a great reminder. I’m off to Greece for 14 days in May and want to take a carry on. Really trying to get away from the just in case way of packing. Wish me luck. 😅
Wow! Sounds like a wonderful trip!! My husband and sons are going to greece in may. This vid will help them a lot!!!!!!
So fun!!
You will love Greece. We went and I can't stop thinking about going back. We have a different destination on our next trip but the one after that will probably be back to Greece.
Aw, thanks@@kimberlyberlin4999 ! I won't be on this trip, as this is a special trip we are planing just for the three of them, but my husband and i may go just the two of us later this year!💞I cannot wait to see beautiful Greece.
Yes, we cannot wait, @@kimberlyberlin4999!
✈️I really enjoyed this video✈️✈️
Have you made a video about ethical/high-quality brands you use and would recommend investing in?
I recently decided to update my wardrobe with higher quality/pricier pieces and im wondering which brands I should choose. I'm pretty new to this.
✈✈
Going for 30l backpack and 25l daypack both weigh 1 kg together unpacked of course. Where I go they will after bad experience in 2021... will be adapting at a disadvantage for longterm as would have to take 4 seasons and large stock of meds.
