Weekend getaways are the best way to disconnect from our routine and start the week with our batteries recharged. The planning of these fantastic plans is usually marked by improvisation, so choose a destination and pack your suitcase in the blink of an eye. Can't decide on a destination? In our post 'Pack your bags! We're planning a weekend getaway' you'll find inspiration.
Here are 7 tips for packing the perfect weekend suitcase!
1. Go for a backpack or a small suitcase
Choosing a large suitcase will mean filling it with things you won't use. Remember that for a weekend, a backpack, travel bag or small suitcase is much more practical for carrying your essentials. A little tip: place the heaviest items such as jeans or jackets underneath and the rest of your clothes on top. This way you'll avoid your clothes arriving like an accordion.
In our online shop you will find a wide range of suitcases, choose the perfect model and? Let's travel!
2. Plan according to your destination
North or south, beach or mountain, city or countryside... The destination will be decisive when preparing our luggage. Think about what you will need and make a list of priorities, so you won't be tempted to fill your backpack with "just in case". Remember that we usually return with more items in our suitcase, so leaving an empty space is never a bad thing.
3. Be as versatile as possible
Keep in mind that a weekend getaway is, first and foremost, about relaxing and unwinding. Don't think about outfits for different occasions and choose comfortable and versatile clothes as basic garments that allow you to create different outfits.
4. Do without certain items
Nowadays, with a simple phone call we can make sure that our hotel has certain items such as a hairdryer, towels or other beauty products. If you are staying somewhere else where these amenities are not available, try to bring the essentials.
5. Opt for a pair of shoes
Choose footwear that is neutral and as comfortable as possible. A pair of trainers is always effective for any kind of getaway, and will be just as good for walking as for a more casual look. However, if you're travelling to the mountains, take shoes suitable for trekking, and if you're heading to the beach, don't forget your flip-flops.
6. Leave your electronics at home
If we are going to disconnect, let's do it properly. Leave your electronic devices such as tablets or laptops at home, so your luggage will be much lighter and roomier. Two days away deserve to be spent on alternative plans that will bring back a good number of anecdotes.
7. Take with you the desire to enjoy yourself
They say that there is no better traveller than one who travels with open eyes and a happy heart. Say yes to a good weekend plan!
