Managed to pack for a two-day business trip using solely my GP 36. Probably not the best for the bag, but I am very proud of my packing skills. I travel most weeks for work, and it feels amazing to travel light. View attachment 4155536

Wow! I’m impressed! Did you not even have another handbag with you? If you don’t mind, please share what you packed — I can’t imagine a 2 day trip with everything in a GP.

That's all I packed! Packing list is pretty straightforward:
  • Laptop, cell phone + chargers -- this fits in easily as I slide it in vertically (I have a MacBook Pro 13'', so it's not the thinnest, but it fits fine; chargers go inside the bag insert)
  • One dress + one H scarf (it's summer, so that's all I need) -- rolled up
  • Change of underwear -- rolled up
  • Everything else goes in my bag insert (I have the Mai Tai one):
    • Lipstick (I do like makeup, but I can get away with just lipstick if need be)
    • Ulysses GM (not mandatory, but I like bringing it)
    • Wallet + keys
    • Sunglasses
    • Travel-sized sunscreen, travel-sized moisturizer (I can live without putting more complex stuff on for a couple days) -- I like getting various sample packages from Sephora and using them for travel
    • Deodorant
    • A few random things I generally have in my bag insert (bandaids, Advil etc, small perfume vials -- I don't generally unpack them)
    • Hair comb
Hotel provides toothbrush and toothpaste + other toiletries. I curled my hair before the flight and it will last fine into tomorrow. I brought an Hermes shawl for if it gets chilly. I was already wearing the jewelry I am going to re-wear tomorrow + I am going to re-wear the shoes from today as well.

Because of the timing of flights and the one meeting I have to attend, there is unfortunately no time to work out, so I didn't have to worry about that type of clothing.

I do travel for work extensively, so I am a light packer in general. There was a time when I had to fly short distances mostly, and could utilize general aviation, and that was amazing. I only brought a handbag with me as well, but I I generally did there and back in one day!

That’s really impressive! I was looking through your list and thinking of what I’d have to add: mascara, my own soap and lotion (I’m allergic to a lot of stuff so bring my own), medications, and a t-shirt and leggings for the hotel room and to sleep in! I also notice you don’t carry bulky, noise-canceling headphones that so many people travel with. Thanks for sharing!
