It's not personal. Bad advice includes: - rolling things into logs (time consuming and not space-saving), rather than using compression packing cubes which are quick and easy, organized and actually save a significant amount of space. - Packing your own tide pods (risky, heavy and unnecessary), just buy detergent locally or use a full service laundromat which is common for locals in many countries - If you have to wrap cords with hair ties, you have too many cords (I'll admit this one could be personal) - Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are a terrible option for travel food. They're soft, squishy, messy and don't last long. If you want to travel with food, pack granola bars or trail mix.
