Packing for 2 months in the cold
Everytime I get the opportunity to travel for work, I start panicking about what I am going to pack. With that I also search online for suggestions and packing lists from other performers who are always on the road. I have yet to find one, so I am saying screw it and here is my attempt at a packing list for Alaska in the winter. Aside from my worries of having to travel with a winter coat and boots, I worried that I don't have any cold weather clothes anymore.
I packed my clothes in large storage bags by category and the other stuff is packed in varying sized pouches.
Suitcases: Hockey bag (15"x30"x54") and smaller carry-on size that will be used as my "show bag"
I decided to use my hockey bag since it had wheels and could hold all my storage bags AND still had room left for my puffy winter coat.
