Electronic – arduino – Connecting components to an arduino without a breadboard

arduinopinswiring

I've never worked with an arduino before, so bear with me.

I'm looking to start a project with an arduino nano, and I want to keep everything as small and as light as possible. Because of this, I want to avoid using a breadboard. Ideally I want to wire the arduino directly to the components. How would I go about doing this? For example, lets say I want to connect a PIR motion sensor to the nano. What kind of wire will connect the arduino pins to the holes in this component? Sorry if this is an obvious question. The images of the PIR components and the nano are below.

edit: Also I'm hoping to avoid soldering just because I might want to re-use either of the components.

I just use some 30awg rework wire for something like that. Get one or two colors. Then just strip cut and solder.
