Re: Capsule wardrobe
I find it impossible to travel light so I'm afraid no advice from me.
Why worry anyway so long as you aren't over the baggage allowance.
I don't see the point of trying to get it all in a cabin case - what do you save? When you get off the plane you've still got to wait while other passengers get their stuff off the carousel. (unless you're an independent traveller of course)
My idea of travelling light is taking travel sized toiletries.
