It´s getting close now! Soon you will be putting on your backpack and leaving your comfort<br />
zone so that you can experience some on the most amazing things in the world! To pack<br />
your whole life in a backpack can be hard, but we hope we can make it a little bit easier for<br />
you with this packing list.<br />
STORAGE<br />
Let´s begin with the most important – storage items! You won´t get far without the<br />
luggage, and for your trip it is crucial to bring a good backpack. Remember to try on the<br />
bag before leaving, and get someone to help you tighten the straps properly to make<br />
sure you don´t hurt yourself on the trip.<br />
• A big backpack (Do not pack in a bag bigger than 60 litres, or it will get difficult to handle.<br />
If you choose an even smaller bag, you will be able to check it in as hand luggage. This will<br />
save you from some waiting time at the airport, and make it easier to walk with)<br />
• A small backpack (This is great for flights, long car rides, etc. Can be carried on the<br />
stomach or left in the car)<br />
HOT TIP: Do not fill your backpack all the way to the top. You might need some room for gifts<br />
and souvenirs on the journey.<br />
• Fannypack (A MUST. This is something you can use every single day. It is easy to handle,<br />
and safe to carry your phone, passport and wallet inside.)<br />
• Backpack dividers (Find yourself some dividers to keep the bag organized. This makes it<br />
easier to access what you need, and makes it easier to fit more into the packpack)<br />
DOCUMENTS<br />
We highly recommend that you keep all your documents<br />
organized and in the hand luggage, to minimize the risk of<br />
loosing important documents. You should also bring a copy of<br />
your documents (especially passport!) in your luggage in case<br />
you loose the original ones.<br />
• Passport (Remember to check if you need a visa to<br />
the country of your arrival. It is also important to<br />
check your passport. It should have a couple of<br />
pages available as well as an expiration date more<br />
than six months after the return of your journey.<br />
• Flight tickets (A tip is to keep the tickets on your<br />
phone. Not only is it easier to keep track with,<br />
but it is also better for the environment.)
