There are several techniques that will help you to manage your clothing while away on holiday that will see you remaining clean, tidy and without the need for the expense of Laundromats and dry cleaning services.
The convenience of your wardrobe will depend a lot on the type of clothes that you buy.
You won’t want to take with you clothing that will require dry cleaning when anything that will drip dry and look good will make life away a lot easier for you on holiday.
You can wash items in your hotel room shower and let them drip dry overnight. You can get wrinkles out of your clothing by giving them a fine spray mist of water, just enough to dampen them, and then let them hang until they dry and the wrinkles will be gone.
It is handy to have a little spray bottle with you, not only for maintenance of your clothing but also to cool yourself down if you feel hot or clammy.
This can happen just before a plane flight is ready for departure when they turn the air-conditioning off prior to getting airborne.
A light mist of cool water on your face can make you feel a lot more comfortable and relaxed.
When you need to wash your underwear you can do that by using the shower and washing them while you are having your shower and then leaving them to drip dry over night.
Another method to help get the creases out of your clothing is to hang them in the bathroom when you are having a hot shower or bath and they will get ’steamed’ from the heat. This will usually remove a lot of the creases and wrinkles and once again they will be ready in the morning after drying out overnight.
Take a few plastic bags with you on holiday so you can keep your dirty shoes and/or clothing off your clean clothes when you have to pack your bags to move to your next location.
