Packing List – Tropical

This tropical packing list will help you be prepared so you can have a fabulous vacation!

As an organizer, I like everything in order and to be prepared. The way this tropical packing list really helps with vacations is that you will not have to take time and enjoyment out of your trip to have to run errands for things you forgot. Being prepared gives you a more overall relaxed feeling.

When you return from your trip, we’d love for you to share your vacation pictures on our Facebook page. And be sure to let us know if we left off anything that you think would be helpful! Happy travels!
