Hey pals!!! I’m writing this blog to share with you guys how I packed for my trip. Living out of a backpack is something I could NEVER picture myself doing like ever, but here I am doing it and for 9 months at that! I’m a HUGE over packer so you can only imagine my struggle with trying to pick and choose the things I actually need vs. what i just want to bring. So I thought I’d write this blog to share with y’all how I managed to fit almost a years worth of stuff into just 2 bags!!
So let’s get started
