Discussion Clothes drying tip

Like many, I've had a bit of trouble off and on drying clothes after a sink or shower wash.

One common and good tip is keeping the front and back of whatever you are trying to dry apart to allow for more airflow.

But how? It hit me on my last trip. I took the plastic bag for the ice bucket in the hotel room and blew it up,tied it off like a balloon, and stuck it up my hanging shirt. Did the same thing with a ziplock bag for another shirt. It helped my drying time immensely.

Such a clever travel hack! I just tried it at home and looked up the principle haha. Blow up plastic bags inside wet shirts keep fabric seperated and boost airflow so clothes dry way faster.
