A great packing video to inspire you plus packing tips

I watched a video in which somebody packs socks inside shoes ( I knew that one) then folds his t -shirts so that they are laid flat and then each one fold over the next almost concertina style. He achieved about 36 items in the small backpack/roller pack.
I'd previously bought solid plastic shirt folding packing aids, like two or three sizes of oblong chopping boards but with two fold in wings.
This one is 60 days of garments in a carry-on.

I liked the zip off skirt and zip off pants legs (UK trousers) to make shorts

Lots of the skirts are either denim or heavy material in dark or bland colours designed for trekking, not for a beach resort or cocktail party or conference.
