So you are off on holiday in a couple of days. Flights booked. Hotel booked. There is one thing left to do, and something the majority of holidaymakers dread and put off (if you are in the minority, I envy your organisational skills!): the packing.
A survey carried out by a travel insurance website found that 77 per cent of women confessed to packing extras of everything just in case they can’t decide what to wear when abroad. The results found that the average woman tends to almost double her packing contents for her holiday, although they only end up wearing 50 per cent of the items they take with them in their suitcase.
Not only do women fill their suitcases with a large amount of clothes including beachwear, but also electrical items such as hair straighteners (41 percent),suncream (73 percent) and make up (53 percent). Head of travel at Gocompare.com advised that “Packing for holiday requires a certain amount of organisation, and it certainly pays to work out what you need in advance.”
Unlike some bulkier clothes such as jumpers and trousers, a plus point about swimwear is the very little amount of room it will take up in your suitcase. So if you can’t decide which bikini out of your collection to take you may as well take them all! After all, then you have yourself a different look for everyday you are on the beach/by the pool.
So if you are off on holiday soon, good luck with the packing and don’t forget to send the Tucano Beach team a postcard!
