My 2010 アジア一周 Packing List

I was going to make this video before I left for Japan but ran out of time. Since I have REWIND to serve as a home base in Japan, I’m able to be even more selective with my packing and leave some stuff behind. To keep track of my stuff and act as an aid in sorting through my stuff, I decided to record it for posterity. I’ll see how this stuff works for me on the road and post updates.

  1. Looks like you still have a bit much here…

    It looks like you have a duffel bag in there, but just a very light handbag or something I recommend if you manage a “home base” where you are going. They are useful. Also, don’t know the type of money belt you have, but have something that can hold your passport, some money, AND your planeticket (if you have them printed in that form) under your clothes the entire trip.
