Pre Travel
Okay, so Emma has officially rubbed off on me 100% as I booked flights last night to leave for Canberra with her...TODAY (Hence the scheduled post hehe).
Anyway, I thought I would list down my routine that I follow religeously every single time right before I travel. Most of these things are obviously common sense, but I thought I would share it with you anyway!
P.S Keep a lookout for lots and lots of photos and videos of our travels to Canberra, also follow me on Snapchat: anemicee for our daily 'vlog' type videos and silly antics!

Number One:
The very first thing I do before anything else is checking the weather with the app called Weatherzone, which then allows me to pack clothing and makeup accordingly.
Number Two:
When I know what the weather will look like at my final destination, I mentally browse through my wardrobe and create outfits for every day, however of course, I pack way, way too much clothing in any case.
Number Three:
Following on from the previous step, I put my suitcase next to my cupboard and start to throw clothes in its direction. Starting from my wardrobe and then working down to my underwear/pyjama drawer, then my folder shirt drawer, my jeans/shorts/skirts drawer and then down to socks and shoes. This allows me to see all potential items and probably pack them all...I'm that guy, I know.
Number Four:
This step consists of me contemplating fake tan and manicured nails, then concluding that nails are far more important than tanned skin (I'll just rock jeans, it's fine). I have a major issue with chipped or unpainted nails, so mine are painted and nicely shaped 99% of the time. For this particular trip, I went with the colour True Love by Essence, followed by my favourite cuticle oil, base and top coat.
Number Five:
After filling my suitcase to the brim and manoeuvring with somewhat wet nails, I pack my makeup for the trip, which yes, consists of basically my whole collection (keep a lookout for a makeup collection post very soon). My makeup bag is roughly the size of a small handbag, so it fits all my eyeshadow pallets, foundations, bronzers, blushes, mascaras and literally everything else.
With this step, I proceed to pack my toiletry bag, which looks extremely sad against my huge makeup ensemble. It consists of my birth control pills, toothpaste, toothbrush, face wipes, face wash and moisturiser.
Number Six:
After everything is packed, I force it all into my suitcase and lay out my 'travel' outfit. For this trip, it consists of a vintage graphic tee, black Wrangler jeans and my Turtle Dove Yeezy Boost 350 sneakers.
Number Seven:
Being the last step, I go over everything and make sure I have everything I need for my travels. I also pack my carry on luggage that usually consists of calming/anxiety medication (I get really bad flying anxiety), headphones, lip balm, sunglasses, an iPhone charger, a water bottle and my wallet.
Can't wait to share our travels with you all, stay tuned!
Hope you're having an amazing day,
