Ultimate Semester At Sea Packing List
This list is highly requested & so I thought that I would make a full post about it on my blog! This is the list that I made while I was packing for SAS so make adjustments as you see fit for you! This ended up being a pretty good list for me and I didn’t need much else! Chances are someone will always have what you need or you can always buy it. And obviously I’m a girl, so this packing list is more fit for my gals out there lol. I listed links to the products I got on Amazon if you want to buy those items! Also, check out my packing video on YouTube for more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tISfAT_kFw&t=1s
