If you are planning on hitting Europe on a budget, then you need to pack light considering the fact that you will be flying on their budget airlines which have strict luggage rules. Travelling in winter makes it even more difficult to pack light. Here is my advice on how to pack light for your next European winter trip.

1. Windproof and waterproof jacket
2. Thermal underwear
3. Replace 3 or 4 tops with 2 sweaters
4.  1 Black jean
5.  2 Leggings
6. Winter dress
7. 1 pair of boots
8. 1 pair of sneakers
9. Light weight warm socks
10. Accessorize with hats and scaves
11. Warm gloves
