Packing List In Review


My Mexico adventure is coming to an end and I am soaking up some sun in Mazatlan for 2 more weeks. My original packing list was extensive, listing everything down to my stick of chap-stick. This post is not to do a single review of each item, but to describe how several items fall into the following three categories: Must have, Leave home, and Good to bring. Some items may have been more useful had I done more camping, or maybe staying longer in each place, but for my 3 month adventure here is a review of what I packed.

End of the Mexican Adventure


The end of the journey


I have been to the highlands,
backpacked hot and humid lowlands,
walked through miles of blue agave fields,
and palm groves hunting for coconuts,
tasted greasy taco stands,
and home cooked chile rellenos,
