    This was before fast fashion. Clothes were more expensive, but better made. You had far fewer pieces of clothing, and you’d repair them if they got worn, torn, loose seams, etc. The fact that there are five people carrying a small suitcase and a rolled-up pack between them suggests that most - if not all - of their clothes are on their backs.

      Yup, I’d take a larger suitcase on a vacation. Moving nowadays wouldn’t be possible without a vehicle.
