When I say we are backpacking, that’s exactly what we are doing. One backpack per person. No suitcases and no giant backpacks either. We are using the small backpacks that count as airplane carry-ons. We’ll do laundry on the road, at laundromats or in the hotel sink. So you will see us in the same clothes in all the pictures. It’s 2 or 3 pairs of pants, 3 or 4 shirts, enough socks and underwear for a week, one pair of shoes, one jacket. That’s it. If we forget something or need something we’ll buy it there. It’s not like we are going to the middle of the desert.<\/p>\n
