We will be leaving for our 2-month trip to Turkey and Malta tomorrow. Unlike trips of the past, where we’d rush from sight to sight trying to cover as much as we can in 7-10 days, we’ll be doing some slow traveling for a change.

Luckily, packing for a two-month trip is really no different than packing for a 7 to 10-day trip. You only need 7 to 10 days worth of clothing, and just make sure you have easy access to a washer/dryer wherever you’re staying at. The only difference is to pack multipurpose items, such as a shawl that can be worn as a beach coverup during the warmer months, a scarf when it gets cooler, and a head covering when entering a mosque. Or travel pants that have pant legs that can be unzipped and converted into shorts.
