I’m visiting Europe and Africa in a few months and decided to research what to pack to travel lightly (I’m hopping around to a few countries and won’t have a home base to stash a big suitcase). Every single “light packing list for women” includes a hair dryer. Why. Why is a hair dryer on a light packing list. An American hair dryer won’t even work in Europe, even with a converter. It’ll blow a fuse or start a fire. I don’t understand.
They also recommend bringing two pairs of shoes (one for walking, one for going out), but every one of the “”easy outfit”” pictures has a different pair of shoes.
Why. Why is being a woman so exhausting.
