“Ready to One Bag for Italy? Share Your Tips!”

I’ve never actually tried doing a one-bag trip before because I usually carry my work bag with my laptops and CPAP machine. But, you know what? I’m seriously thinking of giving it a shot for my upcoming trip to Italy. It’s going to be my first time attempting to travel with just one bag, and I have to admit, I’m a bit nervous about it, especially for such a big international adventure. We’re only going to be away for 11 days, so I know it’s totally doable, and maybe I could even do some trial runs on weekend getaways before the big trip.

To make this one-bag dream a reality, I’m considering switching to a travel-sized CPAP machine. I’ve realized that if I wear my shoes and pack only my Xero sandals, I’ll save a ton of space. I can also cut down on toiletries by being more strategic about what I bring. But hey, I’m curious – how did your first one-bag experience go? Any tips to share with a newbie like me? What are the common mistakes that rookies make that I should watch out for? Am I going to regret not having a suitcase for souvenirs and stuff I pick up along the way?

I’m excited to hear about your experiences and suggestions! Let’s make this one-bag journey a success together.
