The hardest thing to do is pack. Imagine trying to pack for 5 months in one* suite case. Which shirts would you bring? Which pants? How many shoes?
It is way harder than you'd think!
*Let me be clear! We are each packing one suitcase...not all four of us in one suite case. Jeeze! How crazy do you think we are!
Packing has been an exercises in compromises--don't bring as many shorts so you can fit in a few more pants (after all it will be getting colder, not warmer....); don't bring as many shoes so you can bring another sweater.
I'm not complaining, I'm just sayin... (I have a feeling I'll be using that phrase a lot...after all we are going to live in Switzerland for 5 months so there is absolutely nothing that can be said that is even the least little bit like complaining....)
I hope you all have a great trip! I'll look forward to seeing all your European adventures here!
