The Packing List

One part of this project is about seeking economy in travel.   The miracle of the modern world is that I can document and share the voyage from almost any place on earth with very simple clothes and  tools like mobile phone, laptop and camera.   

Ideally all of this can fit into one piece of carry-on luggage.  Here is the current thinking on what exactly will be needed.

Clothing:

  • 1 three-piece suit (see here for details on its construction)
  • 1 pair of lightweight long underwear
  • 2 pair of underwear
  • 3 pair of socks
  • 2 T-shirts
  • 1 Pair of all-terrain shoes
  • 1 Watch
  • 1 Hat
  • 1 Scarf
  • 1 Outergarment to protect against rain and extreme weather
  • 1 pair of pyjamas (I won’t sleep in the suit)
  • 1 All-purpose rucksack
  • 1 packed dop kit
    • Razor
    • Shaving cream
    • Hair gel
    • Toothbrush
    • Toothpaste
    • Ibuprofen
    • Sewing kit
  • Small shoe care kit
  • Suit care kit (contents tbd)

Technical gear

  • 1 Mobile phone (used for geolocation, photography, video, etc.)
  • 1 Macbook Air
  • 1 Digital Camera with video capability
