It's 4AM and I haven't finished packing

Today is the day! We leave for Peru in a little over twelve hours! I'm so thrilled, excited, happy, ecstatic, elated, overjoyed, and... a little overwhelmed. It's 4AM - and I haven't finished packing. One skill I have yet to master is finding the right things to bring to and from one place to another. Every time I fly from the Bay Area to San Diego, I either overpack or underpack. Most of the time this results in staying up until the wee hours of the morning trying to solve this luggage dilemma. At some point today, it will happen! :)

Do you have any helpful tips and tricks for how to pack smart? Any recommendations for what I should bring to Peru? I will be in the Sacred Valley for ten days teaching in a classroom with children, and possibly working on a construction project at the end of the week. From what I hear, it has been pretty cold and March-April marks the end of the wet season.

Post your responses below! Looking forward to reading them. I hope to post before I leave so be sure to be on the lookout for my next blog entry.


In Service,
Jeanie :)
