- My father has traveled extensively over the years.
- Recently, he sent me packing cubes after discovering their benefits.
- Packing cubes help keep his clothes organized, clean, and compact.
Last week, an unexpected Amazon package arrived at my doorstep.
Although I wasn’t anticipating any mail, my heart warmed when I saw that it was from my dad, Kevin. One of his love languages is acts of service, which includes his endearing habit of sending useful items from Amazon. In this case, he sent me a set of packing cubes that cost $22.
My dad has been a seasoned traveler since he was six and his sense of wanderlust has never faded. He has explored various destinations across the United States, Mexico, and Canada, visiting the latter at least eight times before turning 16.
During their visit to New York City in August, my parents and I had a conversation about packing cubes while enjoying cocktails at a Manhattan bar. I usually pack my clothes without any organization, resulting in a messy suitcase. However, my dad made a compelling case for using packing cubes.
Streamlining the packing process with cubes
The Edmonds family has different packing styles. While my mom and I usually pack the night before, my dad prefers to start organizing his luggage days in advance. He found that packing cubes made this process effortless.
“If there are clothes that you know you won’t be wearing before you leave, you can pack them several days in advance,” he explained. “When it’s time to pack your bag, you can simply drop the cube in.”
Wrinkle-free clothes and optimized luggage space
During our conversation, my dad also mentioned that his clothes took up less space when he used packing cubes, which is ideal if you enjoy buying souvenirs during your trips.
“I no longer have to search through different parts of my luggage to find something,” he told me. “When I arrive at my destination, I can simply pull out the cubes and transfer them to the hotel dressers.”
He also mentioned that using packing cubes resulted in less wrinkling of his clothes and ensured that his items stayed clean. “You don’t want the bottom of your shoes all over your clothes,” my dad emphasized.
