Thanks to the Marconfort Hotels and Apartments contests “Pack up!” we’re collecting many tricks to pack up the suitcase easily and practice without exceeding the weight limit!! There are some fundamental assumptions, like:

  • Roll up the clothes
  • Put the socks and small pieces inside the shoes
  • Check-out the weather forecast and bring only the most important things.
  • Wear only neutral color and comfortable clothes and shoes.
  • If you’re traveling in group or family, share some elements and distribute the weight between the empietst suitcases.

Beside these tricks, we can add some funny comments shared by our  Facebook friends, for example, many girls sayd that the best idea is to put all the things that doesn’t fit into your suitcase in your partner’s suitcase. Also, some people prefer wearing just a couple of swimsuits, jeans and the credi card. The  contest finishes in a few hours, you’re still on time to take part on it and win a free holiday wiht us, good luck!!

During the promotion we’ve been investigating about the best tricks to pack up and we’ve found some interesting videos on Youtuve like these two:

Question: Doctor, ¿how should we face the winter?

Answer: Winter is coming, and we are in the middle of autumn, rainy season, and cold weather… I especially recommend that everyone consider being vaccinated for the flu, which helps prevent unwanted health complications.

Q: What we must keep in mind to protect us from the cold?

A: Of course, when cold weather is coming, we should avoid sudden temperature changes. When you are outdoor, wear the right clothes and use appropriate clothing if you walk or do some sports.

Q: What should we pack for travel?

A: When packing for travel people who have a chronic disease should always include their medication. It is also advisable to carry a small kit with the typical over the counter medications you may need such as paracetamol, ibuprofen …

Q: Anything else we should consider?

A: Enjoy the holidays as much as possible, follow these tips we’ve given and, above all, avoid excesses. Continue your usual medications if you have any chronic underlying pathology and not hesitate to seek health care if needed. Check out the recorded interview (remember to turn the subtitles on):
