re: Packing Tips

I didn’t read your whole list, but my advice: you only need two pairs of shoes. A casual pair for walking around, and a nicer pair for the evenings. Anything else is overkill.

Edit: skimmed your list. Things like soap can be purchased upon arrival and you can just throw away whatever of it isn’t used. No need to waste room packing it. And two pairs of tennis shoes? Why two pair?
