Excellent! Fun read.

Traveling light is the only way to go & allows for so much more freedom. Spread the world!

We’ve been traveling the world nonstop as a family since 2006 & I am a former heavy packer who has been set free by our minimalist traveling life (we’re featured case studies in the new 4HWW) so you are preaching to the choir.

Everything we own fits into a van sized green RV with a solar panel which we use as our vehicle/storage/home/base, yet we also go off for months at a time with just a tiny daypack each! (That includes our laptops and homeschool supplies and even when we hit 3 seasons of weather).

It is amazing how little one needs & how a minimalist life can set you free!

(Hit the dumpling festival in Krakow Karol with the locals when you get to Poland for some scrumptious food for a pittance).

Happy travels!

True story, I suppose checking your luggage takes less time than shopping Fabian.

Thanks Baker! This interview is flying around the Twittersphere, which I’m excited about.

Welcome to any new readers stopping by. Feel free to drop me an email and say hi. I’d love to meet you. evbogue at gmail.com

Karol, the thing is I wouldn’t really like too much to worry about these issues once I get to a place. Also, this contact lens stuff can indeed be ahrd to find. But in the end, it’s just a personal preference, of course. While it’s no fun checking luggage for me, I prefer it to having to go shopping right away when getting to a place.
