1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keep your important documents together<\/strong> and safe from moisture — your passport and boarding pass<\/strong>\u00a0for example.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keep your receipts<\/strong> all in one organized place.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sort your currencies <\/strong>— dollars in one bag, another in another,
\netc…<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Make a \u201ckit\u201d<\/strong> of all the things you want to bring on your trip but
\ndon\u2019t need until your trip home: return trip itinerary, cab fare for
\nthe ride home, house keys, etc.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keep breakable items safe.<\/strong> Put the item you want to protect in a
\nZiploc bag and close it almost fully, leaving just enough open to fit
\na straw through. Then, inflate the bag, remove the straw, and close
\nthe Ziploc completely. Presto…self-made bubble-wrap!<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Store your liquids or powders<\/strong> to prevent mess.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keep your clothes wrinkle-free.<\/strong> Larger bags can hold rolled
\nclothing — which makes for neater packing and less wrinkled outfits
\non the other side.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Make a pillow.<\/strong> Fill a large Ziploc with cotton balls for a light
\nand compact travel pillow.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keep your luggage contents clean.<\/strong> Wrap your shoes in bags to
\nprevent dirt from their soles rubbing off on other items.<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0\u00a0 Pack a big trash bag<\/strong> and place it on the bottom and then around your clothes.\u00a0 If your bag is sitting out in the rain waiting to be loaded on a plane, the plastic liner will provide a wetness barrier.\u00a0 Use it coming home to put your dirty laundry into.<\/p>\n

11.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Clean-up.<\/strong> Wet some thick paper towels with liquid anti-bacterial soap and water. \u00a0Fold up while still wet and place into a zipper bag to take with you.<\/p>\n

12.\u00a0\u00a0 Store snacks<\/strong> to travel.\u00a0 Filling a bag with nuts, candy, trail mix, or granola is just a beginning to what you might want to take with you.<\/p>\n

13.\u00a0\u00a0 Store your camera, cell phone, chargers, adapters, sun and eyeglasses, keys, and other essentials<\/strong> in one clear plastic bag.<\/p>\n
