I am spending the day packing for my trip tomorrow. Since I have take so much of the actual equipment as carry-on, this leaves me with my suitcase for everything else (and some additional equipment).
In an attempt to have my clothes relatively wearable when I land, I am employing a new method, a bundle method. I am taking this information (and diagram) from this site. It looks promising and might allow to sneak a second suit jacket along with me (rather than the one I wear on the plane, which invariably ends up wrinkled when I get there anyways).
All the credit goes to my wife for sending me an NPR story mentioning this site. It has some truly excellent suggestions.
My name is Michael Sean Gallagher. I am a Lecturer in Digital Education at the Centre for Research in Digital Education at the University of Edinburgh. I am Co-Founder and Director of Panoply Digital, a consultancy dedicated to ICT and mobile for development (M4D); we have worked with USAID, GSMA, UN Habitat, Cambridge University and more on education and development projects. I was a researcher on the Near Futures Teaching project, a project that explores how teaching at The University of Edinburgh unfold over the coming decades, as technology, social trends, patterns of mobility, new methods and new media continue to shift what it means to be at university. Previously, I was the Research Associate on the NERC, ESRC, and AHRC Global Challenges Research Fund sponsored GCRF Research for Emergency Aftershock Forecasting (REAR) project. I was an Assistant Professor at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (한국외국어대학교) in Seoul, Korea. I have also completed a doctorate at University College London (formerly the independent Institute of Education, University of London) on mobile learning in the humanities in Korea.
The best way not to wrinkle your clothes would be to wear all of them on your body when you get on the plane. Be careful, though. My aunt died doing this.
how did the bundle method work out? i’ve been doing it for a while (after having seen it on martha stewart or oprah…i can’t remember which). but i’ve added a step taught to me by my mom…use old dry cleaner bags. they also add a little cushion between layers. try it out the next time you and jen visit dae~hangminguk (clap…clap…clap clap clap)!
