What equipment have I got with me?
One thing's for sure, you won't find a hairdryer or lots of pairs of trousers in my rucksack. In fact, it was too heavy so I had to take out my spare clothes! My day clothes are always damp, but I've got a set of dry clothes to sleep in. Now I've just got the necessary things all in waterproof bags: a hammock, a first aid kit, my GPS unit, a few clothes and a very big knife! I' ve also got an MP3 player. I'm using it to learn Portuguese because I'll be going through Brazil soon, and to listen to my favorite singer, Kate Nash. The only other luxury is my toothbrush!
