After asking different people who have backpacked before what to they thought was important to bring I have come up with this list.
- Rock climbing clips – To clip wet cloths to back pack to dry (while walking)
- Safty pin – Always handy in emergency
- Leather man – What else would you need (remember not to leave in carry on luggage unless you want a five finger search)
- Pillow case and sheets – To use in hostels
- Thongs – To wear and to use in public showers (You don’t want fungus feet during you trip)
- Power board – To charge all your devices at once and only needing power converter
- Travel Guides – Lonely planet guide is a must as it gives great tips and tricks given by other backpackers that have been there and done that
- Spork – A knife/fork/spoon combo so you will never be without eating utensils
- A foldable Gore-tex jacket (Outer shell) – Gore-tex is waterproof and windproof and is generally the shell that keeps you dry. The foldable version can be packed easily not like the standard Gore-tex jacket which can be a bit harder to compact
If you have any other tips what else to bring please feel free to post it.
