Here's a top tip I picked up the other day. Traveling light means picking clothes that can be washed and dried easily - and don't look all crinkled when they dry. They also need to dry fast - and be able to be washed by hand (it saves time and money). So - the best approach is to:
1) Wash them by hand.
2) Wring them out.
3) Lay a towel on the ground and roll up the item of clothing into the dry towel.
4) Walk all over the rolled up towel
5) Hang them up and leave them over night.
Step 4 removes most of the water and helps press them a bit, reducing the number of creases. I'm trying the above with some clothes I've bought - and if they pass the test I'll be keeping them. If not - it'll be back to the shop for a refund :>)
