Less is more when packing- especially toiletries. My hubby & I did a RTW trip for 1 year and found in SEAsia you can get all the toiletries you need- a lot cheaper than in Oz. Take the very basics you need for the plane and 1st night- then go to a shop in your first destination and get the rest. I totally over packed the toiletries and vowed to remember people overseas wash their hair and brush their teeth too! The only thing worth getting from home is good insect repellant and sunscreen. Good luck. PS I used my make-up only a handful of times- again rethink if you really need it. You’ll have a happy holiday glow – better than any make-up you can buy
Thanks for the tip! Will stock up on enough Bushman’s repellant and cheap Coles sunscreen before we leave and I’ll take a lipstick so I don’t look washed out. The rest can stay behind. I wear makeup every day for work so it will be a nice break from wearing it.
