I really enjoyed meeting you yesterday at Savinar luggage. I learned so much. I am the one who spoke to you about the pick pocket pants and you said you know the owner. We will be ordering more of them for our next trip, for me it eliminates a purse! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us. Great learning experience. I am going to follow you on Facebook.
Angel
Great meeting you Jo! Happy travels to you

Just got back from a trip to France. 8 hotels in 14 days. Your travel pointers really helped even as experienced travelers. I’m a believer now in packing cubes and we loved the CityMapper app you suggested. I wondered if you could suggest a travel clothesline for laundry in the room. We had problems with this. Thanks!
Angel
Great to hear thank you! Use a laundry line that firmly attaches to 2 points. Stay away from suction cups
Jo Trust
Friends and I are bugging Savinar Luggage to have you back your tips are great and I always learn something new Cheers and Ciao
Celeste
Hey Angel, thanks so much for more travel ideas – I’ve used packing cubes but the travel folder is new to me. Great job!
