- Books. Travel guides to India, Kenya, Madagascar, Thailand, plus some entertainment reading and my Hindi textbooks.
- One pair of pants. I’m trying to limit myself to one pair of brown chinos and several pairs of shorts.
- Hand sanitizer.
- REI shell jacket. Water/wind proof, good for 40 degrees up to 85.

- REI Bug Hut Pro. Minimalist bug shelter.
- Reporter’s notebooks.
- REI mini multitool.
