<\/a><\/p>\nTip 5.<\/p>\n
The Essentials: It doesn\u2019t matter how organized you are, even the most efficient packers forget something when traveling. Make it easy on your guests and have some of the essentials laid out for their stay. This can be as simple as placing a toothbrush, toothpaste, soap and a razor on a beautiful tray. Just remember that presentation is everything!<\/p>\n
Enjoy!<\/p>\n
