Yeah I think I’d want to put a bigger drawstring bag or maybe even a packing cube or something like that that zips so it would be more obvious if it fell out everything would still be held together. But some people can keep better track of things than I can lol.
Yes she should be really careful with that bag. Because there are so many tourists, there are lot of snatchers around. My phone got stolen 2 years ago in Greece. Lesson learned. I threw away all of my bags without zips after that.
especially when in most (cheap) airlines you need to put your personal item under the seat. It seems impossible to have all those things stay inside the bag o.O
Greek subscriber here. Have lots of fun! The islands are touristy but the locals are really friendly and accommodating, enjoy your time 🌊 Dont forget your SPF every day!
Hi I'm planning to go on a trip in Greece with my boyfriend this summer (august-september). Could you advise where should we go (without car) which island or city, where is the best place to stay and enjoy beach vibes :). I would really appreciate some advise from locals. Many thanks
@@ksusha2418 Hi! Do you have a specific city/ island mind? I'd say Greece is best enjoyed when you have a car to do road trips but I understand because I don't have a car either. I particularly love Athens, Ioannina (north Greece), but for beachy vibes it's Crete, Rhodes and Corfu or whatever island looks good to you will be amazing! Each place has bookable local bus and boat tours to take you to top spots like beaches, monuments etc. I'd say look up places with lots of good reviews rather than places that look tourist-friendly with mainly English menus (because these won't be as authentic and the prices will be really high). August is the busiest and hottest month (the wind is also much stronger, which you want to consider when going for a swim) and September is much better! I'd also recommend island hopping, where you stay in different islands in the same island complex for 1-3 days each. It's difficult to fit everything in a comment but I hope this helps! Oh and some recommendations whichever you go: try souvlaki, visit caves if they have them, boat tours, try Greek bakeries (fournos) for breakfast pastries and try Greek iced coffee: freddo espresso/ freddo cappuccino. Have fun 🇬🇷✨
When traveling with your friends for more then a week it is good idea to found what cosmetics you can buy at your destination and pack only those you know you can't live without. That way your carry on limit of fluids isn't an issue. Last year we (my friend and I) did 11 days trip through North Italy with only one shared carry on (so we had a half of it each) and two personal items (one per person). We have bought sunscreen, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner in Italian LIDL and we paid not much more then we would for them in our hometowns, but we had enough place for all other cosmetics :) More advantages: We have paid only for one carry on and we took turns to drive it, so both of us was less tired then if we would have separate suitcases ;) We travel together once or twice every year since we met in University so we have learnt how to pack and travel as cheap and comfortable as it is possible :D
Glad you could find someone so well aligned with you. Believe me, I know, traveling together can break relationships😄 It's like the same term of 'you can see their true colors like you were living under the same roof' So when I read something like this, I'm so happy! Nice people, genuine people actually do exist, just rare to find.
@@HappyLife-nf7wb To be honest if we travel for more than a week there is a chance one of us might kill the other 🤣 but we just don't talk for few weeks after coming back and forget until another travel 😉 It is better if we don't have anything plan in tight schedule - less tension, more chill and less chance to argue :)
I love this backpacker mentality but in my country we have a saying that translates: let the money suffer not the person. Obviously you guys weren’t suffering but not having personal space for my belonging is insufferable to me. Great for saving money! Not for peace of mind, money is not an object when it comes to traveling comfortably
@@Estassi55 each of us had a backpack - lot of space for personal items ;) we really not needed more things to take, and going to and through airport and then to first ho(s)tel without some heavy cosmetics is great 😃 traveling is so much lighter and easier (having suitcase/carry on in turns is great). And money will suffer at destination - when buying cosmetics (if I understood that saying correctly)😉 that are also years of practice - we just know what we need and want to take, and which things won't be necessary or won't be used by us. If I am going for stay-in-one-place vacation then sure, I can take more luggage (taking my laptop and books and probably some board game).
For me the bed is an invite for packing, laundry folding and putting down things that needs to get organized. It’s the only big and empty space i have so everything gets thrown there in the first place.
I love how conscious you are about prices and finding a good deal. Knowing that you can probably afford it with UA-cam income. You're very grounded and responsible.
Hi I'm planning to go on a trip in Greece with my boyfriend this summer (august-september). Could you advise where should we go (without car) which island or city, where is the best place to stay and enjoy beach vibes :). I would really appreciate some advise from locals. Many thanks
Back in the 90’s I did a 2 week trip around Turkey 🇹🇷 with a bag the size of the small bag. I had 2 buttonthru dresses that I wore together when travelling.
Was just back from Greece (zakynthos) after 9 days of vacation. Trust me, you don't need to pack for all 9 days. I made a huge mistake by packing everything i needed. Once i was in greece, dresses, swimsuits, toiletries, bags and everything was so cheap and CUTE. Since my cabin baggage was already full, i was not able to purchase anything that i could take back 😢
Have so much fun! I just got back from a girls trip to Athens, Santorini and Paros!! I definitely recommend booking a boat tour day if you can! Our fav spot on Santorini was Karma Restaurant for breakfast! Our waiter was nice and let us chill there because we couldn’t check into our hotel yet😂 super good pancakes with yogurt and good matcha 🩵🤍💙
First of all the outfit, wow! Secondly, planning a girls trip might be the hardest challenge of the year, but my god it is so worth the efforts and the almost fights😊
Santorini is amazing! I did a solo trip last year for my birthday - best idea I ever had! If you have time, I highly recommend you do a sunset catamaran cruise (I booked via get your guide) but they have loads of different once and you can get food and drinks on board too and watch the pretty sunset!
Greek viewer here! I think you should pack your personal belongings in a safer way. Even you should have difficulty in access. Stay safe and have fun! Also, as mentioned, you should wear tons of sunscreen!

@ksusha2418 I think September is an amazing time weather-wise to visit Greece. Generally, the centre of Athens is nice to navigate on foot or by metro. I think taxis are not needed. Then, I think the islands that are beautiful and not too crowded are Serifos and Milos. It is nicer, though, if you can rent a small scooter. They are also kinda close to Athens by ferry. I wish you have a wonderful time!
From a Greek girl make sure you bring cool clothes as in they’re in thin and in breathable fabric bc it’s hot as hell here and we’re expecting 40 degree weather here. Have fun 🩷🍷
Hi Maddie, curious to know how you go through security in UK airports with all your toiletries in your cabin luggage? Even though they are travel-size, in total it looks like a lot of items to fit in the clear ziploc bags we have to use?? @macerly
@@aland.9060 if your not greek, and your visiting for a month it depends from where you're going to stay. Some hotels are expensive and also some airbnbs bc Athens is the capital city. I think that you're going to be OK with 1000$ without the accommodation. But you're not going to do unesecery buys...
El bolso de mano es muy abierto para viajar, en el aeropuerto vas de un lugar a otro y algo se puede caer del bolso abierto,yo buscaría cerrado para mí tranquilidad😊
1) packing all the clothes in smaller, zipped bags in a trunk 2) packing and flying(!) all these cosmetics, in zipped bags in a trunk 3) packing your most valuable items in an open, not-zipped bag
I think it’s cool to use a beach bag as a personal item to save space, but it would stress me out that it doesn’t zip
Thought the exact same thing!
Especially with the passport in it.
Yeah I think I’d want to put a bigger drawstring bag or maybe even a packing cube or something like that that zips so it would be more obvious if it fell out everything would still be held together. But some people can keep better track of things than I can lol.

You pack so lightly, for 9 days that’s amazing😮
I could never pack so light for 9 days. I would back boots to go to Greece, just in case, I need them😂 teach me your ways.
Being skinny probably helps 😆 And the packing cubes!
That’s probably bc you don’t travel often. With more frequent travel comes an understanding that you almost never need everything you thing
@@athena6832no? I go like with 3 suitcases fro 5 days
@@vivienmartin225Neither, I travel at least twice every year, and still 3 suitcases😂
@@athena6832 lol, I came here to say that 😅 Being thin and skimpy/warm-weather clothes.
For me, it’s pretty wild packing luggage on the bed😂 , it is a sacred place!!!!!
For me the bed is an invite for packing, laundry folding and putting down things that needs to get organized. It’s the only big and empty space i have so everything gets thrown there in the first place.
Same I don’t let food, dogs, children, my husband, breathing nor atoms on my bed!!! I don’t even let the bed on my bed
I aways disinfect my hard-case luggage when I return home, before I unpack
I also struggle because the dirty wheels going on my bed makes my skin crawl
I so love your packing videos! You’re so organized and practical which makes them so satisfying
I've been to Greece and the thieves are going to love your day purse!!
I love how conscious you are about prices and finding a good deal. Knowing that you can probably afford it with UA-cam income. You're very grounded and responsible.
Enjoy your vacation 😊
Packing cubes are the best!!
Perfect packing hope you have a wonderful trip!,
Also I think you may need a small wallet bag for easy strolling
Greek here!! Have a nice travel to Greece 🎉 It's really hot in here so stay hydrated and wear SPF , sunglasses and a hat!!!
That lovely open bag will be a pick-pocket’s dream come true!
I'm wishing you a great time. As a Greek person honestly Greece is one of the best countries to relax and have fun for the summer 😊❤️

Could you link the strawbag and the packing cubes? Both so cool
Use a big hand bag with a zipper
This one is too open it would make me anxious. Stuff can get snatched / fall out easily without me realizing.
The packing cubes are sold in urban outfitters by a brand called BAGGU :)
First of all the outfit, wow! Secondly, planning a girls trip might be the hardest challenge of the year, but my god it is so worth the efforts and the almost fights😊

They aren't worth the price honestly. You can get screw top containers from any brand for cheaper that won't take up as much space and weight

1) packing all the clothes in smaller, zipped bags in a trunk
2) packing and flying(!) all these cosmetics, in zipped bags in a trunk
3) packing your most valuable items in an open, not-zipped bag
Is this a carry-on? Your packing looked so simple and easy
Also good on him for taking a time off internet for his mental well being! This has to be more normalized for creators struggling with mental health.
What luggage carryon is that❓. Is it Tumi❓
Where is your suit case from LOVE IT and looking for one like that atm! Xx
Can you do an in depth packing video for this trip?
Maddie where is your suitcase from? ☺️ I am looking for a new one, and yours look so nice 😅👏🏻
