Doing laundry isn’t one of my favorite things to do, but I always feel good when my clothes are clean and I can sleep on fresh sheets again.
It sounds easy, but for me, doing laundry can be harder than math.
I wish there were books on this topic. They might not make for the most interesting reading, but they would definitely help a lot.
I had to learn the hard way myself – and I ruined a lot of clothes during my trip.

Now I know that doing laundry doesn’t have to be such a stressful experience and that’s why I’m sharing this trick with you here.
