For some reason I always feel like you guys are deeply interested in what and how I pack for my trips. So here it is, even though it is 3am the night before I leave and I still have tons of things left to do.

So first off I have revised my packing list from my previous 90 Day Travel Packing List. Biggest change is that I am going to be heading to Europe, not Southeast Asia, very modern and very chic eastern and then western Europe.

As you can see my most significant change so far is my lack of a backpack and hence replaced suitcase. I actually gave up on the backpack about half way through my Australia trip when I realized that I was having to unpack and repack my whole bag each day. I got lazy.

Second thing you might notice is that I have changed up my shoes, added running shoes instead of hiking boots, and a pair of general day flats. I have also gained an excessive amount of jeans. Seriously, it’s a bit much: 3 jean shorts, 2 pants.

One of the most valuable things I have realized I needed more of was a complete first aid kit. I can’t even tell you the amount of times I visited a pharmacy on my trips. All it really takes is one thing to happen for you to realize how important having creams, lotions and proper sized bandages are.

I have also packed an expandable extra luggage, perfect for all the clothes I’m going to buy 🙂

Must resist the need to pack my suitcase full.

There you have it, all my bags are packed and I’m ready to go!

See you in Europe 🙂
