Sharing My Packing List for Our Spanish Trip and European Adventure
Hi friends! I hope you’re having a fantastic day. As Mariah Carey would sing, It’s tiiiiiiiiime because we’re escaping the Tucson heat and embarking on an exciting European adventure. (Side note: This spring and early summer in Tucson have been surprisingly mild and beautiful—definitely not the usual scorching weather!)
I’ll be sharing all the fun activities, delicious food, and amazing sights on Instagram, so make sure to follow along on @Fitnessista for live updates.
We’ll be traveling for a while, so we’ve arranged for someone to house-sit. I also had to relocate our guinea pig, Donut, to my mom’s house—sorry, Madre! After seven years, Donut is still thriving.
Our itinerary includes Barcelona, Rome, Pisa, Provence, Seville, and possibly other stops. I’ve always dreamed of a trip like this, and I’m so grateful we’re making it happen. With P in competitive basketball and summer being tournament season, now felt like the perfect opportunity.
Packing required a lot of strategy—I wanted to avoid repacking while ensuring we had everything we needed. Of course, I also saved a little space for shopping abroad!
Here’s my detailed packing list:
