9. Roll clothes, instead of folding, to save tons of baggage space.
12. Scan important documents before leaving for your trip.
In the event of theft or misplacement, it comes in really handy to have extra copies of your passport, identification cards and flight itineraries that you can easily access on your smartphone or tablet.lifehack.org
17. Keep your headphones from tangling by winding them around a binder clip.

Just unscrew the lids and place a simple patch of saran wrap on the top and screw them back on. This will prevent any liquids from ruining your trip.
