- Time of past OR future Camino
- (2015)
It's getting close to Camino time (3 weeks out!) and I am also heading into the busiest time of the school year for me so I will be slammed with work until I leave. I'm hoping my exhaustion will help me sleep through the plane ride! Here is my packing list. Please offer advice!
Thank you to anyone who is willing to help!
Here it goes:
Osprey Kyte 36L (Women's)
Camelbak 3L reservoir ( I will prob not fill it the whole way but I just bought it less than a year ago. Why buy another?)
40+ sleeping bag. It's down but it's lightweight and I like it. Don't want to splurge on a new one unless I am convinced I have to. I would rather buy a treated sheet and take that too.
A treated sheet for keeping the bed bugs away (see above)
Two carabiners just-in-case
ear plugs
1 Microfiber towel
iphone for communicating and pictures
Clothes
Dri-fit pants/joggers - they're a little bulky but I hike/run in them in the mornings here so I am used to them - figured I'd just take something I was comfortable in. Also, I could pull these over shorts in the a.m. if cold and whip 'em off as it warms up! I can also sleep in these if they're not dirty.
Dri-fit leggings
2 tech SS shirts
2 LS tech shirts
2 shorts - 1 dri-fit and light and one hiking
3 pairs of socks (merino wool)
3 pairs of underwear
2 sports bras
Rain jacket - super lightweight and packs up small. This is the only jacket I'm taking. My joggers are warm and I figure I can layer a SS under a LS if I get cold in the morning.
Shoes
Inov-8 trail runners (I currently hike in trail runners so I see no point in taking boots... ?)
Pair of comfy broken-in flip flops to use in shower and around town (they dry quickly)
Other Stuff
A ball cap
2 Glasses (seeing and sunglasses)
Headlamp/flashlight (I'm thinking maybe I'll just take the little flashlight? But the headlamp is very light too)
Poncho (will I really need this? I have a rain jacket and my pack has a cover.... I'm thinking worst case scenario I can throw a trash bag over myself but I'm not that picky. I have it though so I could just take it).
Home made first aid kit with: medical tape, band-aids, alcohol wipes, anti-bacterial ointment, anti-fungal cream, ibuprofen
Wipes in case of ...ahem....
Toiletries - figured I'd buy an all-in-one soap bar there. Any suggestions? Taking a small toothpaste and I'll buy as I run out along the way. 1 razor and necesseties for mother nature's monthly gift haha.
Makeup - I'm bringing a tinted moisturizer with high SPF, mascara and SPF lip balm. These are non-negotiables for me haha. I will probably not use the tinted moisturizer or the mascara but I like the idea of having them there in case I have the need to feel pretty haha.
Is there anything major that I am forgetting or really don't need? Thank you again!
