You can you see why traveling is far more appealing to us than a life of this...(The reason he looks happy is because its almost feeding time! haha!)
I encourage you all to get out of the box and go....

The Wandering Begins in....
Well this has been a crazy one to figure out as earlier this years I was planning to start in Costa Rica and I had booked an airfare there. Then my friend in India invited me to her wedding so I was open to the possibility of starting there. I ran into visa problems with India, as they really don't want more Indians coming into the country. haha! I finally came back around to the possibility of traveling with my roommate Llewellyn. We decided we should start in Argentina and go trek around in Patagonia and go all the way to Cape Horn. Our adventure begins January 22. Here's a glimpse of some of the views we most likely will see down there.

Nomadic Packrat
What should a nomadic person take for world wanderings...this is what I've been asked quite a bit in the lead up to the trip. My response is a backpack and an awesome camera :) But what goes in that pack. Hmmm...well this is what this nomadic packrat is packing away.
Yup that's it and I'm almost concerned I might have to much. Haha! But yes it will all fit in my MacPac. So here's the break down of it.
85lt MacPac back (more than enough space for what I'm taking)
Travel book for people to write in (I'm not journaling, the blog is for that)
Marmot down jacket
Patagonia rain jacket
Merino wool thermals
3 t-shirts
3 pants
underwear & socks
BigAgnes sleeping pad
REI 20° down bag
toiletries
black shoes
flip-flops
rock climbing shoes
REI Flash 18 daypack
camp mess kit (I might not bring this, what do you think?)
Canon 5D mark II SLR camera with 24-105mm L series lens
GoPro camera
Travel Adapter
unlocked cell phone
2 hard drives for backup of pics
Acer Chromebook laptop
Not pictured: quick dry towel, headlamp, usb cables to connect devices, dry bag for electronic gear, emergency blanket to put my sleeping pad on when camping,
Possible addins: water filter
That's it so far. If you think I should be bringing some other things, let me know. The passport is missing since I sent off for a visa. I really hope I get it back soon. Haha!
