We are less than two weeks out from our grand adventure, which looks a little like this:
- 4 Days in Venice
- 4 Days backpacking through the Dolomites
- 4 Days in Cinque Terre
- A week in Nice, South of France
- And finally, 4 days in Paris
Needless to say, we are stoked. We will be gone from our home, jobs, friends, family, and dog for nearly a month. However, this is also a logistical packing challenge. There is the backpacking element (travel sheets, hiking boots, head lamp, et al), and then touring the South of France. Not to mention Paris! As easy going as I *imagine* myself to be, the reality is I’m a fashionista and cannot imagine clomping around Paris in my hiking boots.
So, here is the plan:
Backpack, filled with stuff for hiking:
Then, suitcase… filled 3/4 of the way with stuff for warmer climates and beachy type touring… i.e., dresses, rompers, shorts and t-shirts. The last 1/4 of the suitcase is dedicated to Paris: blazer, denim, and blouses.
This experience has me wondering – how minimalist can one be while still looking stylish?
Tips appreciated!
