A SIMPLE SUMMER VACATION PACKING LIST
Packing seems to be one of those tasks you either love or loathe. I’m pretty sure we’ve all waited until the last minute to start packing at some point, only to throw in the towel five minutes in and grab random things from your closet. Or those times when you overpack but still somehow forget…
