Packing for a week in hand luggage only
Short answer: Five thin bamboo viscose layers take less space than two thick ones. Wash in the sink along the way and one bag covers seven days.
Choose thin over thick
Thin layers combine and take less room. Two thin tops do more than one thick jumper. See bamboo t-shirts for women.
A week of underwear weighs nothing
Seven sets of thin bamboo viscose take less space than a pair of shoes. See bamboo underwear for women.
Washing in the sink
Rinse one set in the evening. Bamboo viscose dries faster than thick cotton and is ready by morning.
Plain colours make everything easier
When everything works together, you need fewer pieces. See bamboo clothing for women.
