I can't even count the number of times I've been asked, so in this video, I'll share the ultimate guide on how to pack AND wash clothes while traveling ESPECIALLY when packing light or doing onebag travel.

1:33 Worst Case Scenario
Handwashing clothes is ridiculously easy, and best of all, it's a great way to plug in an ebook or podcast as you wind down from your full day of exploration every night while you're traveling. The longest it ever takes me is 20 minutes (and that's if I put it off for a few days and have a lot to wash). Even if your hotel or AirBnB has a laundry room and machines, just knowing how to do this is hugely beneficial, since anything can happen machine malfunctions changes of plans, etc.


2:20 Part 1 PreClean
I always bring my own cheap electric toothbrush, so complimentary ones from hotels are what I use for spottreating bad stains. If you're interested in checking out the electric toothbrush I bring on all my trips, you can find it on Amazon here:

3:05 Part 2 Cleaning
As you saw in the video, Indonesia happens to have very small packs of laundry detergent this is ideal as a onebag traveler, since convenience stores and groceries usually have options that are annoying large to lug around. That said, if you're just going for a short trip, packing your own in a TSAapproved reusable bottle is the best option.


4:10 Part 3 PostClean
If I'm at a hotel (which I usually am), I always ask the hotel for a few extra towels the moment I check in, specifically to expedite drying. Remember, the most important thing to me, is getting all clothes onto a hanger IMMEDIATELY after wringing, then, while it's still as damp as it'll be, to gently tug in all directions to eliminate future wrinkles once it's dry.


5:48 Best Case Scenario
No matter where you go on earth, you can open Google Maps and type in YOUR OWN language "Laundry Near Me", and it'll find all laundromats and full service shops near your current location (amazing, how you can be in Japan, and type those words in French, and it'll find all your nearby options.


6:59 Don’t Forget Footwear
One thing I didn't mention in this video is that the only way I can keep my one pair of white sneakers so fresh, is because whenever I buy new shoes, and after I deep clean shoes, I always spray a protective spray called Crep Protect. You can search reviews of that spray on YouTube, but if you take my word for it...

7:49 Mid Case Scenario
Laundromats rock. Especially in clean and safe areas where they are open 24 hours. In fact, every new place I travel, this is one of the "activities" I actively TRY to do, haha, since I find it such a fantastic litmus test on general costofliving and a great place to meet locals.
