This past weekend we went to Rome and Pompei, and I am starting to just feel tired from all the traveling and exploring we've been doing. So for now, I'm just going to share a little bit about what I packed for a short weekend trip, and the outfits I wore. On the weekends I've been traveling with just a backpack and a small purse, so I definitely make sure I only bring the essential toiletries and just enough clothes. We've gone away twice now, and I'm sure by the end of my time abroad I'll have it down to even more of a science. But for now, this is what I set aside for last weekend's rainy trip to Rome and Pompei:
- 2 pairs pants (I traveled in yoga pants the first day, wore jeans the next two)
- 2 sweaters to layer over tanks
- 2 tanks (1 camisole and 1 stand alone tank)
- 1 rain jacket
- 2 pairs of shoes (a pair of sandals and a pair of Keds)
- socks, undies, pjs, etc
I could have definitely gotten away with packing one less sweater, but with rain in the forecast I wanted to make sure I had a spare in case I got drenched. But aside from the first day in Rome, we didn't get as much rain as we expected, so that was a nice surprise!
So there is a little glimpse into both my weekend and what I wore! I'm a little behind on blogging, so look for posts to come about Cinque Terre, Rome, and Pompei! I promise I'll share all my experiences in time with y'all :)
Thanks for reading, and Happy Memorial Day!
