We travel between 3 to 5 months at a time, travelling light, so we frequently need to hand wash our stuff. We use quite a large vacuum bag (the sort that you place clothes in and then use a vacuum cleaner to take out all the air with) as it is quite waterproof when sealed up. Interesting that you sometimes use shampoo, We found that washing up liquid works quite well too.

And I don’t think I’ve ever seen any other post like it. Definitely helpful since we travel for 1-2 weeks at a time and always end up taking dirty laundry back home with us. It’s especially true what you wrote about wearing fabrics that travel well. We learned the hard way that jeans don’t air-dry very fast lol

Ha! I do a lot of hand-washing when I travel as I either wear delicate wash or dry-clean only!

In India, I’ve been stung by the very-efficient-but-beaten-to-death clothing situation, so only give clothes that I don’t really mind what happens to them or basics such as T-shirts, underwear, socks and shorts. I never give in my jeans, as most of the time I wear €150 – €200 jeans that need to be washed at “cool” temperatures, and not “beaten” lol!

I will be traveling for over a month around SE Asia and South Africa and only bringing a carry on and a small back pack. Laundry will be necessary.. Thanks for the info!
