Packing is a learned skill. Here’s what to take and where to get it!
There are too many “Top 10″ lists for what to pack when traveling. More than that, each traveling list is not exactly the right travel situation you find yourself preparing for. Well, ladies & gents, look no further because this list is not messing around. It’s serious business. (Seriously.) If you follow my Top 10 List, you will be prepared for any traveling adventure and it is not dependent on the time, place, or environment you are traveling to. Are you ready for this?
1. Chaco sandals
These are great to use in all different climates as well as if you are planning on traversing through some wet areas. Chaco sandals have an amazing footbed that gives a lot of support so you’re feet won’t hurt after trekking for days. Furthermore, wearing thick SmartWool socks (we will get to those later) with your Chaco’s (somewhat of a fashion statement) can turn your sandals into warm and comfy footwear. (Available here)
2.Osprey Talon 44 Backpack
I live in this backpack when traveling. I use it for weekend trips, spring break trips, as well as for a trip around the world in 68 days. It will withstand ANYTHING and is the perfect carry-on size for those pesky budget airline restrictions. (Available here)
3. Patagonia pullover
This is a life saver as it offers a warm layer without making you look like a slob in a massive sweatshirt. These pullovers are also easy to wash and then if it gets too warm you can easily tie it around your waist. Traveling is all about layers and this is a layer I won’t travel without! (Available here)
4. Dark wash denim
Comfy and form fitting jeans that can easily go from day to night are a must for guys and gals. Also, a dark wash can mask the dirt that accumulates in between doing laundry. (You’re welcome.) (dark wash denim" target="_blank">available here)
