Inventory

I've begun compiling a list of a things I will need to take.

I intend to travel as light as possible, but already this list seems quite large!

  • a stove of some kind
  • mess tin
  • tent
  • personal medical goods
  • towel
  • relevant maps
  • plastic watter bottle
  • toothbrush/toothpaste/soap
  • bog roll
  • sleeping bag
  • deodorant (who wants to pick up a smelly hitcher?)
  • a book or two
  • dental floss and needle (for flossing and sewing any ripped clothes)
  • journal
  • Swiss army knife
  • matches/lighter
  • fork, spoon
  • string/cord
  • insect repellant
  • tweezers (if not with Swiss army knife)
  • sun protection
  • emergency food rations (nuts, dried fruit)
  • clothes (two or three changes of socks and underwear, one or two t-shirts, fleece, hooded sweater, raincoat, hat)
  • camera (I can't go on a trip like this without taking pictures)
  • battery charger
