Do you remember the scout moto? – Be prepared!

Here is help to eliminate many of your packing hassles! I have one friend who almost never travels due to the horror of packing. Most of us aren’t that overwhelmed with the packing but it can be stressful. I found this article in Travel & Leisure with great tips on how to lower your pre- travel stress with simple packing preparations. When we would travel to panama I found it could be difficult to remember all we needed and fit it all in without costing a fortune for extra baggage. Then of course who wants to lug extra stuff around with you everywhere. That can be very restrictive when you are trying to see the scenery and enjoy the journey. It took a few trips and a 1 month trip to Panama helped me pare our luggage down to the necessities. Years of traveling for business had taught me that I wanted to keep my cosmetics and bath items in my carryon. We had it all in hand and arrived at the airport in Panama to fly back to the US and found out that the rules had just changed the day before our return flight. Of course we hadn’t heard a word about it. Probably the most important travel necessity is flexibility! Carry plenty of that with you and it will go a long way toward you having a great travel experience. Fortunately on that trip we were able to repack in the airport just prior to boarding the plane. Whew! Remember when you are ready to travel Panama see our great travel packages or email for personal help.
