A free packing list for travelers
Today I would like to offer travelers a customizable packing list based on one my friend Jane Burtnett originally developed two decades ago.
Hers was typed on a sheet of paper. I saved it, used it, and shared it with my mother, who really loves using it.
To update the packing list, I have entered the items into an Excel spreadsheet, which you can download and customize -- add or subtract items or categories, add yellow highlight columns for stuff you really want to remember.
I am going to upload a PDF version too for those correctly concerned about macros in Excel spreadsheets (believe me, there are none in mine, but I realize this is a concern in this Internet age).
-- Created by Jane S. Burtnett, 1985; Revised Jeannette Belliveau, 2007. Used with permission.
PDF version (opens in new window)
Original Excel version (downloads to your download folder)
All suggestions for improvement welcome, please feel free to contact me.
