A Suggestion on Clothes
Keep in mind that you may not need to bring every season of clothing with you on Check-in day. Bring clothing that is suitable for the warm weather of September and for the cooling off climate of October. During a trip home when the seasons are changing, bring home what you do not need anymore and bring back clothing for the winter months.
