Seeing as I made a list of things I couldn’t live without travelling with, what items didn’t I need in Thailand? (as I thought whilst drinking coconut water)
1) Jumper – its never been outside of my bag at all and have remained in the dark and dank bottomless pit ever since it got packed. It’s far too hot here man. But I’m sure when i go into the mountains of Vietnam, it’ll make a showing.
2) A huge bag of medicines – I’ve yet to break into them. The only thing medicine wise was applying antiseptic cream on a deep scratch.
3) Flip flops – only used them once, only because I couldn’t be bothered to pull out my sandals out of my bag. Since then, I’ve never used them.
And that’s about it so far. I seem to use everything I have! It shows I have packed well 🙂
What items didn’t you need?
I live in Thailand and 1. & 2. on your list, I rarely use, but I live, breathe and die in my flip-flops. There is rarely a day that goes by where I am not in them!
It amazes me how we are in a similar situation but living so differently!
Have fun on your adventure!
สวัสดี-Swadee Ka!
Trust me, you’ll be grateful for a hoodie/sweater when you step on your first bus where the AC has been turned up to Arctic!
And yes, you’ll definitely need your sweater in the mountains, especially at night!
I can’t believe you haven’t worn your flipflops! I carried a hoody with my for over a year before I finally dug it out from the depths of my backpack. I would have been so much better off just buying one when I finally needed it. I packed all sorts of useless stuff I didn’t need so it looks like you’ve done pretty well!
You will need the jumper at some point!!! And the bag of medicine… better to be safe than sorry Rexy!! As for the flip flops, shame on you 😛
Man! How have you not used your flip-flops yet?! Trust me, once you get lazier and lazier, they’ll be your best friends.
