Ah the great delights of travelling and moving on each night. This brings some challenges of what to carry (you don’t want to be lugging bags and bags from the car each night and back again the next morning) so you look for easy ways to cheat a little.

One of my favourite is to see how long I can go without buying shampoo or shower gel by collecting the lovely little bottles each hotel leaves you in the room. These things are tiny (20 to 30ml at most) but are often really good quality products and they fit into my little wash bag nicely.

We have been in NZ for 10 nights and I’ve managed a nice little collection of shampoos, conditioners and even some body lotions. All carry memories of each place when I use them. But this time, only one shower gel so we had to buy one in Auckland.

Just call me a borrower!
