In it, he details his family cruises on the Queen Mary 2, hotels in London and Paris that feel like homes away from home and his experiences at a wellness retreat in Italy.

He’s had a love of travelling ever since he can remember.

Gary told Who What Wear: “My dad worked in sales for a cruise line, and when I was growing up in Queens, we would go for one week a year on a cruise, and I became obsessed with travel.

“I’ve always either been planning a trip or had my next one on deck.”

His one big tip though is never, under any circumstances, check in a bag.

In his book he has a whole chapter dedicated to this topic called How to Pack.

He told the site: “Oh my God. Carry-on. Carry-on! How many exclamation points can you fit?”

When he spoke to the website he was on a three-week trip for his book tour and doing it all with a carry-on.

Gary said: “First of all, how many times have you checked a bag, only to come home and say, ‘I didn’t need to bring all this,’?

“I just don’t bring all that in the first place. I can visualise exactly what I’m gonna wear every day, and I mix and match.

“The other thing is to do laundry.

“You don’t need underwear for every day that you’re gone because I don’t like to travel with dirty laundry anyway.

“Who wants to travel the suitcase full of dirty clothes?

“It’s disgusting. Just wash your clothes when you’re gone, and don’t wash them in the hotel.

Other travel packing tips and hacks

Compression packing cubes are great at creating more space in your suitcase as they reduce the room taken up by clothes and other items.

Travel writer Sarah James also advised rolling your clothes into the cubes.

Another flight tip Gary recommends is don’t be afraid to be one of the last people to board.

That way, you might get an upgrade.

He said: “I think the best way to get upgraded is to always wait.

“Be willing to be the very last person to board the plane.

“Sometimes, they’ll do the cheaper upgrades that you can get very last-minute, so you never know what’ll come up.”
