something —it's no way to start a trip. That's why we've distilled the art of packing down to nine essential tips that will transform the way you pack, even if you're a lazy

翻看行李箱、思考要带些什么、唯恐忘带某些东西——这可没法让你成行。为此我们将打包的艺术浓缩成九个有用的技巧来改变你平时杂乱的打包方式，即使你是一个懒惰的拖延症患者。

Never Unpack Your Travel Items

永远不要拆包旅游物品

You probably won't need your adapter, inflatable neck pillow, or mini laundry bag in daily life, so why bother unpacking them? Leave all of your travel items in your suitcase after a trip. That way, they'll be in your bag and ready to go when you need them. Plus, you won't have to worry about forgetting them if they're already packed.

平时你可能不会用到适配器、充气颈枕或是迷你洗漱用品包。所以何必拆呢？一次旅行后把这些旅游物品就放在箱子里。这样当你准备再要外出时它们就已经在行李箱了。另外，这样你也不用担心会忘记带这些东西。

Commit to a Travel Uniform

定下一套旅游套装

I wear the same outfit every time I fly. I know that it's comfortable, presentable, and warm —key elements whether you're in the air for an hour or for 20 hours. Choose something from your wardrobe and commit to making it your travel uniform. That way, you won't have to stress over at least one outfit on your trip—you can just pull it on and go.

每次飞行我都会穿同样的一套衣服。在一个不论是一小时还是二十小时的飞行中舒适、像样和温馨的衣服很有必要。我的这套衣服就很符合。在你的衣橱中选出一套衣服作为的你外出服饰。这样，在你的旅行中你至少不用焦虑一套衣服的穿着 ——你可以直接套上就走。 Keep a Basket Handy

手边放上一个篮子

Do you wait until the last minute to pack? Keep a basket in your bedroom, laundry room, or bathroom that you can use to throw in items you'll need to pack as you come across them. This makes you less likely to forget these items; plus, you can just toss the

contents of the basket(s) into your suitcase when you panic-pack right before leaving for the airport.

你是到最后时刻才收拾行李吗？在自己的房间、洗衣房或是浴室放上一个篮子，当你经过旅游需要用的东西时就将它们扔进去。这样至少你不会忘记带什么；另外，当出发去机场前你很害怕打包的话，你可以直接将它们倒进行李箱。

Buy Wrinkle-Free Clothing

买抗皱服饰

You won't need to worry about carefully packing your items of clothing if they're made from wrinkle-free fabrics. Ball them up in your suitcase, crumple them at the bottom of your carry-on, whatever—you'll still look fresh and pulled together when you arrive in your destination.

假如你的衣服是由抗皱布艺制成的，你就不用小心翼翼的打包了。将它们滚成球或是折成任意形状来填补箱子底部。当到达目的地换了衣服，你看上去还是清爽整洁。

Drop Off Your Laundry at a Laundromat

将要洗的衣服丢在自助洗衣店

Anyone who lives in an apartment or a house without a washer/dryer is familiar with the joys of the "wash and fold" service that many laundromats offer. Simply drop off your dirty clothes and return a few hours later to collect your clean, perfectly folded laundry. The beauty of this service? You can simply drop the crisply folded clothing into your

suitcase —no need to wash and fold clothing on your own. If you're really lazy, many Laundromats offer door-to-door services: You can have your dirty laundry picked up, cleaned, and delivered to you without ever leaving the house.

每个住过没有洗衣机/烘干机公寓或是房子的人都很熟悉自助洗衣店提供的“洗衣服和折叠”服务。只要将脏衣服丢给他们，几小时后就可以收到干净折好的衣服，正好可以装进行李箱中。这项服务的好处？你只需做的事就是将折好的衣服放进箱子里 ——不需要自己洗衣服和折衣服。如果你实在是太懒的话，自助洗衣店还提供上门服务：你并不需要离开房子，他们会上门收拾你的脏衣服然后拿去洗再返还给你。

Keep Old Packing Lists

保留旧的打包清单

Odds are you end up taking trips that require you to pack similar items. Keep old packing lists from former vacations to the beach, ski resort, and city—that way, you'll always have a list of at least the basics. The best way to do this is to save lists on your computer or smartphone, so you're not scrambling to remember where you left handwritten packing lists.

通常你每次出行要打包的东西都差不多。保留上一次去沙滩、滑雪场和其他都市时旅行用的打包清单。这样你就会有基本的旅游物品清单了。最好是将清单保存到电脑或是智能手机中，这样你就不用费力去记你将手写清单放在哪里。

Pre-Pack Your Toiletries Case

提前打包好洗簌用品包

You know those small product samples that come free with purchase, after your haircut, or from the dentist (travel-sized toothpaste, anyone)? Keep those in your toiletries bag for the next time you travel. You can even take the hotel toiletries—keep them in your bag and you won't have to worry about decanting all your regular products into 3-1-1-sized bottles for your next flight.

你知道吗？在消费后 ——理完发或看完牙医（任何人都会有旅行装牙膏) ——你可以免费得到一些产品的样品。下次旅行时你就可以将它们放到你的洗簌用品包中。甚至你可以将酒店的洗漱用品放到进去。这样在下次飞行中，你就不用担心要将常规大小的洗漱用品按照3-1-1规则装瓶了。（3-1-1规则:该规则规定乘客能够携带液体每件不超过3.4盎司（约95ml ），总量不超过1夸脱(约1.14升) ，并用一个带封口的袋子装好。）

Schedule a Packing Time

定下打包时间

Time can get away from you before a trip, what with making sure that you're caught up at work, at home, and with the other responsibilities of daily life. Schedule a night well in advance of departure to pack. That way, you're not frantically last-minute packing at 1:00 a.m. on the day that you leave.

工作、做家务或是做其他日常琐事可能会占据你的时间，因此出行前你可能没什么时间准备。定下一个出发前的晚上来打包行李。这样，你就不会在你会在最后要走的那天凌晨一点疯狂的收拾行李。

Buy Stuff When You Arrive

到目的地后再买日用品

Decide that at your destination, you'll buy any toiletries or anything else you were too lazy to pack. The downside: You'll waste time, exert effort, and spend money to obtain these things while on your trip. But hey, that's a problem for future you, right?

你决定在目的地再来购买懒得打包的洗漱用品或其他东西。缺点：在旅行中，你会花很多时间精力金钱来购买这些东西。但这是后面才要考虑的问题，不是吗？
