WHAT IS ESSENTIAL?

Whoever came up with the idea of travel ‘essentials’? I find it odd- mostly because we all know

the essentials (suncream, face wash, deodorant), and yet I am still lost over what to actually

pack, alongside the essentials. Which is precisely where I’m at now. Sitting on my bedroom

floor surrounded by what I might pack. And this is no normal packing, I’m doing 3 months

in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Bali.

And then at the end of it… I’m moving to Sydney!

So I’m trying to pack for the rest of my life, essentially. Which means there are about 329

‘essential’ things to pack, but I only have room for maybe a sixth of them.

In the midst of my #firstworldproblem crisis, I thought I’d share 3 things which I am most

definitely going to pack. In fact, they’re already in my suitcase, tucked up and ready to go.
