Books

Most people don't carry a lot of books with them on international flights as books are very heavy and limit the amount of other things you might want to carry for the usually long trips to your home country. However, I don't have much to carry so I have done a bit of overkill as far as packing books are concerned. For a 3-week trip in which I'll probably not get enough time to finish even 2 books, I am carrying 10! They are...
