embraced my inner Didion and wrote down everything I wanted to pack for my honeymoon. it's weird to think of a list as "writing" but it definitely taps into a similar sensation. it's another form of character portrait. wrote about it for this week's newsletter.

I love this idea of having a packing list taped to your wardrobe (and having the kind of life that warrants it)
I make a packing list for every trip I go on but since I started travelling hand luggage only I've got my packing list down. Something very satisfying about packing and folding everything and finding the most efficient way to do it. I've accumulated so many packing tips that make packing small easy so I'm gonna rec that tomorrow!!

I'm seeing a lot of posts from fans of lists --- one of my personal fav lists is my lists of packing lists AKA keeping all your packing lists in one organized notes app note, and noting the location, length of trip, and time of year
If you are feeling really overachievey, you can even annotate post-trip what items were either excessive or missing (best done in italics)
It's so useful to not have to start from scratch each trip, and also not make the same packing mistakes π

Bonus one. Not sure if to do list or packing list or shopping list but sounds like I was having a good time I guess?

What happens behind the wheel is, frankly, none of my business. I'd rather spend my time picking songs/sipping coffee/taking in the scene.
Driving is so pedestrian.

I swear to god this shit is too powerful. It doesnβt always work out the way I hoped but the win/loss ratio is definitely in my favour. We are social creatures. We like helping each other. Just do it. Ask me for something if you want. Who knows what Iβll say.
