There is a magic when our mothers try to help in packing our luggage. They are good at that. I also do not like travelling because of the stress in packing. I might spend hours packing my stuff, but eventually, I would miss something and would remember when I am in the bus.
There is something I do now so I don't forget anything: once I am done packing the few stuff the night before, I would jot down the ones likely to enter into my bag for the next day so I don't miss any and it has been working.

Your friend was so nice to prepare you a cup of coffee with some nice meal to complement it.
