Okay I have two weeks till my trip and I’ve been trying to &quotractice" what my pack will feel like. The first time I put it on it nearly broke my back!!! and I packed light! One pair of puma sneakers, one pair of black heels, and one pair of black flip flops, a light sweatsuit, five pairs of tops(mainly cotton/polyster small tank tops) two bathing suits, two pair of light capris and a pair of jeans. Also including in this are things like toiletries, guidebooks(2), small digital camera, and mini cd player, but i don’t think i packed much at all. I still have room in my back for my dayback and little things I might buy along the way, but what could the problem be?

List of possible problems:
1. Bag is not full so all the heavier items are sliding to the bottom, making the weight unequal.

2. Wrong type of bag.(American Tourister Gear, large backpack duffel, 29×14×14)

3. You actually didn’t pack light at all.

What are the solutions? Especially for one and two.
