Diem's Pack
Diem does a lot of things well but packing is not one of them. I had to nag her to pack her bag early because she usually procrastinates and throws a bunch of things in a bag before our travels. It's harder for girls to pack light, so I gave her the larger backpack to try to accommodate. Diem used the same compression storage bags (2 large and 2 medium/smaller bags) that I used and also used some packing cube bags. Below is a list of things Diem packed.
- Undergarments
- 14 pairs of underwear
- 7 bras
- 2 sports bras
- Tops
- 5 blouses
- 4 tank tops
- 3 bikini tops
- Bottoms

- 2 regular shorts
- 1 pair of jeans

- Dresses
- 1 short dress
- 1 long dress
- Jackets
- 3 sweaters
- 1 jacket
