I’m just back from a wee jaunt to Basel, in Switzerland.

So CIVILISED there!

No litter.

Water fountains EVERYwhere.

And you’re never more than a short walk from a (clean!) public toilet.

The trip was…

…an avant-garde vegan meal, swing dancing, sightseeing, drinking, eating…

…and an opportunity to respond to a request from the very lovely M…

…a long-standing Green and Tidy member…

…who recently contacted me on Facebook

…to ask, “Have you done any Green and Tidy videos on Packing and its overlooked cousin, Unpacking?

No,” I replied, “but it’s a good idea”…

Question…do you dread packing?

Do you leave it until the last minute…

…and pack in a frantic burst of stress and anxiety…

…ending with you sitting on your case to close it?

Do you run around shoving last minute items in your case…

…while the taxi idles outside?

Do you get where you’re going…

…and realise you’ve left behind something crucial?

…or that you’ve taken far more than you need?

…or both?!

Does what to take keep you awake at night in the run-up to your trip?

I LOVE travelling!

Whether for holiday, business or to visit family and friends.

I love every aspect of it…

…from planning…

…through packing and preparing

…to being on the train, boat, whatever…

…to arriving in an unfamiliar place…

…of course, all the stuff I get up to when I’m there…

…and even the journey home…

…and settling back into my beloved home.

I want you to feel the same way.

So, watch the video below to learn how to prepare to pack…

…and stay tuned for upcoming videos on…

…how to actually pack that case…

…and how to UNpack it!
