Where to?

The Bahamas is home...sun and sanity!

How many bags?

I have been using the same luggage forever, although I just got a Globe-Trotter suitcase that I am looking forward to breaking in with stickers from travels.

Over-packer or under-packer?

It depends on where I am going, if I am going home (to the Bahamas) I will essentially bring myself, I live in a bathing suit and have a closet full of caftans. When I am “en route” to a city, I have never been known to travel light.
