  • There are a thousand things to do in the last few weeks before leaving for a trip. We’ll give you a blueprint to insure you don’t forget a thing! We’ll cover everything from getting a passport to packing your bag and walking out the door. Packing is often a challenge and different types of trips require different strategies, e.g. packing for a road trip is very different from packing for a safari. We’ll talk about the differences and do a live demonstration. This session assumes you’ve already planned your trip. ​
