I made a list for each continental area my squad went to, but I also wanted to make a comprehensive list of everything I packed (and used), items I didn’t need at all, things I wish I had brought, and things I bought on the field that I found I needed.
If you are interested in lists for individual areas of travel, here are the links to my other blogs:

(Eastern Europe) http://sarahsnyder.theworldrace.org/?filename=eastern-european-packing-list
(Southern Africa) http://sarahsnyder.theworldrace.org/?filename=packing-list-for-southern-africa
*Note: this list is female specific, and I packed on the extreme light side of the spectrum. I ended the Race with a 35liter Pack. Almost all of my squad sisters brought more. It is completely true that if you use or wear something at home, you will use it or want it on the Race. Also keep in mind these are all the clothes I used on the Race, not what I used all the time.
