What’s in my Bag?

In about 56 hours I’ll be leaving for my first trip in 2020๐ŸŽ‰. This is about to be a big step for me as I’ll be ticking three countries off my #Journeyto195๐ŸŒ list.๐Ÿ’ƒCan you guess where I will be going? As you think through where I might be going kindly join me in my packing excitement.๐Ÿ™Š

First things first is a disclaimer.๐Ÿ˜† I am not one of those people who can survive two weeks on a small back pack. I love to pack everything I may need because, in my opinion, drip is part of the experience.๐Ÿ˜… Because of this, I got this amaaaazing 60 litre back pack from Chillead store during Black Friday. It’s big capacity, very good quality and amazing color are some of the reasons I love it some more.๐Ÿ˜ You can order it here.

Other than this back pack I will carry a smaller tote and sling bag with me. They are what I will be carrying around as I explore ๐Ÿ“. Now that you know what bags I will use let me get into what will be in the bag. I will start with the essentials then move to the negotiable things that are important to me.๐Ÿค“

Enjoy๐Ÿ’ƒ

The most important thing in this trip, other than money, ๐Ÿ˜‚ is the passport and yellow fever card.
On my phone are these essential apps that help me book accomodation, figure out directions and manage the challenge of language barrier. I also recently found Travel spend that helps in tracking ๐Ÿ’ฐ spent.
These are the shoes I will live on during the two weeks. The plastic sandals are an essential for the beach๐Ÿ˜Ž
Guess how many outfits these are? ๐Ÿ˜
An essential bag with oil, sanitary products, hair stuff, polish, sunscreen and some threads and needle because tear happens!
My mini tripod and lenses because camera shy Naomi only agrees to freely come to life in front of a tripod.๐Ÿ˜ You can order yours here.
We’ll also have this extendable tripod ๐Ÿ˜. It belongs to my travel buddy but I really can’t wait to efficiently take shots with it๐Ÿ˜ญ
A universal adaptor because Bali taught me that not everyone uses our kind of sockets๐Ÿค’
My favorite neck pillow because dogs are looove!๐Ÿ™Š
Some notebooks because a girl loves to journal ๐Ÿ’ญ
My current read. I’ve really struggled finishing this one but I hope to finally finish it over the long bus rides๐Ÿค—
A water bottle, spoon, fork, tin and plastic straw. The thought of carrying spoons around takes me back to high school๐Ÿ˜‚
Some green loving from my sling bag๐Ÿ˜. What destination hint can you pick from this photo?๐Ÿ˜
A fan for the hotter days๐Ÿ˜
And this hat that’s as big as my excitement ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒด๐ŸŒ„

In addition to the above mentioned things I’ll add some soap, snacks and souvenir pieces for a friend who’ll host me๐Ÿ‘ญ. Is there any important thing you think I should pack and haven’t? Comment down and let me know๐Ÿฅฐ

I hope you will find this useful as you pack for your next trip๐Ÿค—. See you in two weeks as I share, with you, my experience on our first destination ๐Ÿ’ƒ

Also, here is our trip itinerary because my travel buddy is extra like that ๐Ÿ˜…. See you soon๐Ÿ˜
