If you can afford it, if airlines allow it, why not carry everything you want? Holidays are about indulgence, not making do with less
Why bother packing light? The travel industry is built on the idea that holidays are about traipsing around with a single backpack or a tiny strolley. Airline luggage restrictions are getting tighter . Travel vlogs endlessly judge folding-vs-rolling techniques. Fashion magazines curate listicles of travel-friendly favourites: A silly skirt that doubles as a dress, tiny moisturiser jars, pointless folding combs, sandals that go from day to night (and look ugly both times). What about the travellers who enjoy having all their stuff on holiday?
