Pack Rat Extroidenaire

With my departure just 48 hours away, I have slowly begun accumulating the "essentials" which must last me for the next two months. Lessons learned from past starvation's abroad have perhaps led me to overcompensate, and have filled my bag with enough snacks to keep a small army alive. I will assume that all those "haters" out there, who thrive on negative opinions about the 110L of space my travel bag can accommodate, are kicking themselves now that they see all of these delightful things I can add to my pack. Yes? Okay so perhaps my bag has yet to be filled with such necessities such as clothing or my passport, but I am confident that once all packed in, I will still be below the weight limit, thoughtlessly enforced by the airline industry.


So wish me luck on Monday's departure to Istanbul, and keep checking back for updates from my journey abroad. I will undoubtedly have countless stories to report, and perhaps even pictures to post!

    bag 1: almonds and CRASINS.. my joseph and mary
    bag 2: extreme protein bars, to maintain motor skills when I refuse local meats
    bag 3: random toiletries, including Gravol, which BTW rings a funny story from the Pharmacy. When I was talking to the pharmacist, she was like "I must warn you that taking gravol can make you quite drowsy" and I replied: "isnt that why people buy it?" So she probably thinks I am a druggie now. Apparently people use it for nausea? Weird.

    Ok, writing this reply will likely lead me to forget an important item.. back to packing!!
