Travel Packing List

I’ve given quite a bit of thought to the stuff I carry with me when I travel. I try to travel light, remain comfortable, and be prepared for unexpected issues. Packing things in smaller bags allows me to stay organized and allows the packing process to be very logical for me. Items like the merino t-shirts or ExOfficio boxers are more expensive than other versions of the same clothing items but allow me to wear them several times without washing (and without smelling). Should I have to I can quickly wash those things in a sink and by morning they will be dry. I also try to buy quality when I can making me have to replace items far less frequently. An additional benefit of going for quality items is that manufactures like Leatherman, Icebreaker, or Ibex have awesome warranties and great customer service.
