Let us accept it: we all love travelling, but when it comes to the nitty-gritty of travel—planning the itinerary, making bookings, and most importantly packing—many of us are not quick or smart about it. Packing for a trip is not a task, but deciding what to carry and what to leave behind is even more stressful. However, for the Godfather of Indian Cricket, it is something that he enjoys the most. In a recent Instagram video, Sachin Tendulkar demonstrated his art of packing luggage, and there is something that we all can learn from it. Scroll down to read the details.
What Did Sachin Say in the Video?
According to the video, Sachin has always enjoyed organized packing, a habit that has been with him since his school days. In the video, he says, "Packing is something that I've always enjoyed, but organized packing. If I have to show you something, I always write down whatever I have to pack. But this has been happening since my school days."
Sachin's Packing Philosophy
Sachin calls himself practical and avoids multiple bags while travelling. He adds, "I am not one of those who would be carrying multiple bags. I like to be practical." Pointing towards his slip-ons, he says, "This is for travel. It's comfortable, and when the feet tend to swell a bit in flight, the elastic of the footwear helps relax his feet and makes it a comfortable fly."
What to Pack for Holidays?
He further explains in the video that while travelling for holidays, he prefers comfortable clothes. He explains, "When I'm travelling or holidaying, I like to be comfortable. So track pants, and that's my sleep wear."
Sachin's Munchies Choices for Travelling
In the concluding part of the video, he packs some energy bars and bhakarwadis and quips, "I should not be showing you this. I like to enjoy my bhakarwadis and energy bars. That they've asked me to try. I enjoy this." He also packs some jackets and concludes, "Because it's going to be in London, so packing some jackets. Also, I am here to say bye to you."
