What things to put in the backpack for the
trip? And then how to put these things? Well,
there can be seen around lots of people -
commonly known as backpackers - with backpacks
that look terrible, and I mean that they
are not balanced - which can hurt on the
long run - or they have no sense of esthetics
- like shoes, pans and other things outside
- or they are extremely heavy - because inside
travelers put lots of unnecessary things.
Here are three fundamental rules
to follow
when traveling with the backpack:
a. Never put in the backpack
money and documents
and always be ready to lose the
backpack
- keep your money always scattered
in different
places on your body; before starting
the
trip it is advised to create
some hidden
minipockets on the clothes where
to put part
of the money; prepare the backpack
in such
a manner to result balanced.
b. Except for the mattress, everything
which
does not fits into the backpack
it means
that it is unnecessary for the
trip.
c. Once prepared, try running
with the backpack
for 30 meters - if you cannot
run, it means
that the backpack must be prepared
again
(maybe giving up to some unnecessary
things)
in a different way until it will
result possible
to run. |
