About the Author  - Richard

Hi, I’m Richard, the traveler behind The Smart Packer. Like many people, I’ve had my share of travel mishaps such as overpacked bags, missing essentials, and last-minute scrambles. Living with ADHD means my mind is always full of ideas, which sometimes makes remembering everything for a trip a real challenge.


Instead of fighting it, I started creating systems such as packing lists, reminders, and checklists that turned chaos into calm. Over time, those tools became something I wanted to share with others who also want to feel more prepared and less stressed when they travel.


Now, through The Smart Packer, I combine my love of travel with my need for structure. I hope my checklists, guides, and tips make your packing process smoother and help you head out the door confident that you have everything you need.
