I know it may not seem like a lot of stuff in the photo, but compared to other blogs iv read on what to pack, I seem to have filled my bag with everything but the kitchen sink. Maybe its because I'm a pretty small person that I have managed to fit in nearly double of what I need, but It's always better to have to much, than too little. Because we will be travelling through the Hot season, Rainy season and even trying to fit in a bit of skiing in the snow, it was really hard to get the balance right but i think iv done ok, So heres my packing list.
