Packing Tips

Post new topic

Hey guys,

I'm less than a week away from my big move to Guangzhou and was wondering if anyone had any packing tips. Things I should definitely bring? Things I definitely can do without? Anything you wish you had brought?

Thanks for the advice,
Kate

Are you a roller, folder, or a thrower? Meaning do you roll your clothes into the suitcase? Do you foldt hem or just throw them in? When i moved im glad i brought my music and books with me. Also because im a little over 6 feet tall my clothes cause its not always easy to find the correct size for me in Hong Kong. JW
