Showerthought: A flight attendant in Tokyo showed me the real power of packing cubes

She saw me struggling to close my bag at the gate and said, 'Rolling is good, but cubes make a system.' I switched to using three medium cubes for clothes, and it cut my packing time in half. Has anyone else found a specific tool that made carry-on way easier?

Remember when I finally got a proper toiletry bag with a hook, it was a total game changer for hostel bathrooms.

A shoe bag saved me, like jamieburns with that toiletry hook.

My travel blog swears by a specific brand of compression bags.
