Answer 1

First pack all the heavy items, especially the ones you don’t need right away.

Then keep the light or breakable items in the bag. Don't forget to wrap such items in newspapers or clothes before packing them. Next, put all you toiletries in a separate pouch and keep it in the side pocket of the bag or towards one side in the suitcase. Now pack the food items in boxes and keep them carefully over the other things. Before closing or strapping the bag, check whether you have packed all the things you will need in your trip.
