Maggie’s expert insights and support made for a stress-free experience in planning and packing for my upcoming summer trip to the Netherlands. She provided me with a packing list including clothing suggestions tailored to my travel plans (I’m presenting my research and need to dress professionally) and recommended tried and true items to make my flight more comfortable, like ear plugs and an inflatable neck pillow.
Maggie understood my need to travel light, yet found a way to accommodate comfort items like a cozy sweater and extra socks. She then worked with me extensively to whittle down my clothing selection to the bare essentials and patiently guided me on how to fit all of my clothing, toiletries, and electronics into a carry-on (backpack) and personal item (handbag). Not a small feat, since I am bringing my running gear, too! It is comforting to know that Maggie has extensive experience traveling to Europe in different seasons. I really trust her style opinions about what clothing will make me most comfortable and not stand out as a tourist. She also offered me practical assistance, like a reminder to bring an adapter with a converter for devices that need to be charged using a lower voltage (like we use in the U.S.) and a recommendation to carry a waterproof layer that doubles as a warm outer layer if the air conditioning is too chilly inside University buildings.
I look forward to my upcoming trip knowing that I can always reach out to Maggie via email if I need additional travel advice!
