Our packlist

A big part of our world trip planning was to dig through countless travel blogs to decide what will go into our backpacks. It wasn’t easy to figure out which things were completely necessary.

Anyone who knows us knows that we find it difficult to make the smallest decisions. (We really hope that we will get at least a little bit better at it on our trip.) Of course we researched for days and only when we were absolutely sure, a purchase was made. So that our backpacks don’t get too heavy and stuffed we took special care that our equipment have both, a small pack size and low weight. Until the very end we researched and purchased and our last order made it to our house right on time on departure day. 🙂

Our planned “test packing” didn’t take place because of lack of time. Two days before departure we at least tried to stuff everything into our backpacks. To roll the clothes is a well-known, space-saving packing technique which also worked for us. The packing cubes are gold worth to keep everything organized.

At the end both of our backpacks weight about 18 kilos (40 lbs).

And this is what we have with us …
