It is hard packing for 9 months when you have no idea where you will be for most of that time. No job, no plans. A frined. That's it. I have a day in Stockholm, 3 in London and a few in Sydney to start my trip this time. I can feel I'm packing very "big city". Migt live in a small town in the Australian outback. Oh well. It's only clothes.
My bag is filled with black, white, grey, blue, lot's of worn denim, blazer, black leather (jacket & bags) and big shawls. 4 pairs of shoes, my dear converse sneakers, black flats, brown boots (very outdoorsy, I reckon) and my running shoes. The oly splash of colour is my yoga/running/cycling clothes. And even though I've filled up on toiletries this time I've still managed to keep my bag at 17 kg. Pretty good for 9 months away, if I say so myself. (the fact that I now own a kindle and have over 100 books on there instead of in my suitcase helps alot. Connot travel without having loads to read!)
Tickets are printed, bags are packed. I am ready to go!
