How to Pack?
I need to thank my sis Ann, she taught me that rolling your clothes saves space and you can bring a lot more.
Once you have your apartment set up- You can always send a box of clothes to your apartment via mail Maybe send clothes that are not so heavy in a box.
Pack and Bring your winter coat and winter clothes with you on the plane. (Even it is hot) this will save you space!!
Storage
Once you get to Spain, you can store your extra luggage and have what is necessary while you look for an apartment. Securing you passport or important papers at the bank maybe a good idea, while you get your permanent place.
So much Fun!
Its so much Fun! To select what to wear. It gives you an opportunity to donate a lot of your clothes or have a garage sale.
Remember these are tips for what to wear in the classroom! Thanks to teachers in Madrid for the suggestions.
You are Set and Ready for your trip!! Totally exciting! Congrats!
