Travel | Backpacking : What to pack?

Hi sweeties! This my first time backpacking and I had many, many questions. The most important question is 'What to pack'?. When I'm going on holiday I always want to bring my whole closet. Of course my with my favorite items. If you are going backpacking is that not so handy. You have to carry the backpack a lot, so the trick is to pack only the important things. And with clothes? Only the basic, and the trick is to make a lot of combinations with less. Well that was a challenge for me ;). 

I thought why not share this with you guys. Maybe you gonna want to go backpacking like me. So I figure out what to bring when you gonna backpacking. :)

I'm so proud at myself. I managed and also in 40 minutes. Normally I takes hours and hours. So backpacking is less stressful than a holiday for 1 or 2 weeks. It is because you have to carry everything yourself, so you don't want a heavy back, hihi.  I also find a great informative website for backpacking, click here.

I hope this was very handy and useful for you!
