    When you're going out of town, how much do you take with you?

    I travel light.

    This is my usual luggage, one bag and a backpack.

    Traveling light is a relative term depending on how long I'll be away. When we do travel, my bag is the one my wife or daughter use to stuff in their overflow because I have room to spare.

    I do the best that I can but never manage to pack as light as I should. That's because I have physical issues that I have to pack things for. Also, I pack for changes in weather. For a week's vacation I check in a suitcase with a smaller soft case packed inside it, because I almost always return with more than I came with. The small one will be my carry-on. But I do carry a big purse to hold all my meds, camera, magazine, even a lacrosse ball to use on my back during flight (accupressure).

    In 1975 I went from the U.S. to Europe, then thru the Middle East to India with a backpack. That's travelling light.

    I used to be an awful over-packer. Now, I try to fall in the middle.

    I've never had to pack to go anywhere except to sleepovers, but I'd probably overpack a little just to make sure, just incase, that kind of stuff.
