Seven day countdown continues..
Seven Days until Europe!
People do not panic we have seven days to make it all fit. Have you seen those people that can perfectly gift wrap anything? I am convinced they are the same that pack anything into a small carry on. I aspire to be one of them. Instead, I choose to pack less. Not the same thing. You see packing less often times leaves me needing more. It hasn't ever been a problem because there is usually someone that has something I can borrow.
Then there is packing to go overseas.
Growing up, I've traveled to and from Brazil countless times. Taking ten massive suitcases for a family of five. We have outdone ourselves with over packing. We had also had a system. One suitcase held all our shoes, one with all our gifts, and someone we each had our bag for clothes. Mom and dad shared a bag, sometimes. My sister and I shared a bad a few trips too. We still managed to bring WAY more than we needed. From those experience, I didn't pack lightly for college or short trips, but over time I did get better about packing less.
I cannot wait to share pictures of my packing genius. First I need to watch more youtube videos. Right now it's all theoretical packing. In a week's time, we will see if it actually worked. Also, my hair grew! PRAISE JESUS! My fight with scissors was brutal, but we made it.
The hair
I thought cutting my own hair would be wise. Like I thought spending only seven days in Europe would be enough. It wasn't, it isn't, but here we are. I found a couple of home remedies for hair growth and it has worked wonders. After the gym, I would apply this concoction of brilliance, wash and repeat in 37 hours.
Who would have thought I would learn so much about hair in just a few weeks. Friends, all you need is aloe, coconut oil, eggs, onion, and green tea. At first, I only followed one recipe and kept to a very strict schedule. Then I started expanding and my hairdresser couldn't believe how well conditioned my hair was. She kept joking, I think, she was trying to encourage me, but after straightening my hair she really did see some growth. It wasn't much, but it was enough to make me look human again.
Before you say, well if it grew back already you couldn't possibly have cut it that bad. Don't. Celebrate the wins with me.
The wins!
- Europe is seven days away.
- My hair looks lovely.
- Mother gifted me an amazing carry on bag.
- I get paid Friday.
Roll your clothes Kubby. They take up less space. Also, buy some small containers for your shampoo/conditioner etc. Or get those travel sized ones from a pharmacy. Seven days is easy. You could do carry on if you're smart enough.

Bahahah, when you read a post and don’t know what to say be like gohba my favorite spam commentary
Oh how wonderful! If I were you I swear I wouldn't be able to sleep until then! And then I would be painfully aware in that I usually have this bad habit in thinking that I'm always forgetting something ;D
I think I’ve been stress eating because I’m always so hungry. Which for me sucks, but that is so much better than no sleep. I need lots of sleep :)
I hear ya, I need plenty myself. I usually forget to eat and when I want to sleep I can't shut my brain off ;P
Seven days is easssssssssssssssy. I did a month in europe out of a backpack. You got this!
Your superwomen, you can do anything, and living out of a backpack for a MONTH is pretty hardcore!
Can almost feel the excitement from here!!!! In case I don’t leave you another comment by the time you leave. Have an amazing time and adventure!
Thank you so much. Can’t wait to see it, smell it, and taste europe! Maybe that’s what my series will be called. Kubby takes a bite out of Europe. What do you think, major hit or flop?
Not enough pink and a bit of a mouth full without leaving further expansion options in the future. Granted the way I title things is not that great myself.
