Tips to Pack like a Minimalist

 

Are you that person who packs your entire home comforts onto your travelling bag and wonders how minimalist packing is even possible? The benefits of minimalist packing seem exaggerated until you practice it on your travels. 




It's impossible to appreciate minimalism if you think minimalist packing is just cutting down the number of things you pack and calling it a day. On the contrary, minimalist packing is being mindful of avoiding the non-essential items on your journey to focus on packing things that add value and purpose to your travel. 


Read further to know how to pack mindfulness in your backpack for travel so that your vacation feels light, happy and less cluttered.


  • Invest in a Smaller Backpack

Once you have set your mind for minimalist packing, the first thing you have to do is to invest in a casual backpack for your travel that is one size smaller than the one you currently use. When you start physically restricting your packing capacity you are one step close to achieving your goal. Deliberately reducing your bag size helps you avoid carrying the additional luxury.

  • Pack your Absolute Essentials

Since packing is a very personal business, every individual varies with their list of essential items. Once you list out the things you have decided to carry for your travel, ask these questions to yourself which will help you select your absolute essentials:

  • Which items from my routine life can be cut out from this list temporarily?

  • Which items from the list went unused or rarely used on my last trip?

  • Are there any travel-size versions available of the items?

  • Is there any lighter version available for the heavy item?

  • Is there any "but I might need this item later" included in your list?


  • Make a Travel Wardrobe which could be Worn Again

Clothes are the one item which everyone tends to carry the most on their travels. Doing laundry while travelling would help you reduce the number of clothes you pack. If wearing the same set of clothes for all your Instagram pictures bothers you, try the mix and match technique to come out with different outlooks.
