A GON Reader Asked:

Thank you for your packing tips in your July 11 issue. I've been told to buy dri-fit clothes for travel as they can be washed and dry quickly and are lighter. They seem to be more expensive. What are your thoughts on buying outfits for travel, worth it or not? We usually travel in the winter to a warmer climate as my husband works road construction.

Love your site and newsletters. I practice many of your ideas and look forward to new ones. Have a great day.

Hi Lydia,

I'm thrilled that you're enjoying my web site and newsletter. Thank you for letting me know!

I launder clothes wherever I am (at a hotel, at someone's house, etc.) nearly every time I am away from home more than a day or two. I don't like putting dirty clothes into my suitcase...and I don't like investing time after vacation catching up on laundry. My preference is to do it while I'm away. I then can place clean clothing back in my suitcase, and unpack right into my closet and dresser when I'm back home.

In all of my years of traveling, and I travel fairly often, I've never gone through the expense of getting dri-fit clothes. This is not to say that you shouldn't get dri-fit clothes. Some folks love it. For me though, when I travel, I simply pack clothes from my closet and dresser that I can toss in the washer and dryer without it shrinking, getting damaged, etc.

On a past trip I just took, I brought one of my favorite dresses. It's 95% polyester and 5% spandex. It was machine-wash, but I didn't want to put it in the dryer. So, I washed it and then hung it over the retractable clothesline in the hotel we stayed in. It was dry within two hours. Polyester dries very quickly. Cotton also dries fairly quick as well.

Hope this helps a bit!
