Packing? I hate packing.

Countdown: 12 Days

Here it comes. The worst part of every trip/voyage/adventure I've ever been on.
I hate packing. Hate planning out what I want to bring and what I shouldn't bring, what is essential (toothbrush? Rugby ball?) and what is just extra (shampoo? music? winter jacket?)
I'm at a loss. Packing for Disney is one thing: fanny pack, shorts, t-shirts, mist fan from the last trip, waterbottles, a good pair of sneakers.
Italy. Not touring Italy.  
Living in Italy.

What? I have to pack for four months, two seasons, (plus ski gear - if you thought I'd be missing out on skiing the Alps you are insane) a hundred or so days - and it all has to fit in one (ONE) rolly suitcase and a backpacking-europe-style backpack...plus, I'll be dragging this back and forth through most of Germany.


So this is the ugly beginning to a beautiful beginning. Let's just hope I can fit everything =]
