    • Journal/ diary (you’ll be taking plenty of pictures on your travels, but it’s always nice to have something to write in. Of course I recommend writing a blog, but you may not always have your laptop with you.)
    • Backpack (for daily use and as your carry while traveling)
    • Plastic bottles for toiletries for use in your carry-on or while traveling (the maximum is usually 100ml)
    • Water bottle/ Nalgene bottle (since the Nalgene bottle is plastic, it’s a lot easier to get through airport security)
