What I’m Packing
Hi everyone! Here I am the pro procrastinator typing this post on the airplane before they tell me to turn my phone off. I’ve been thinking about what I should be packing for awhile now.. Reading many blogs late into the night trying to figure out what I should and shouldn’t bring; analyzing needs versus wants. I knew that this backpack wasn’t going to be ginormous, yet when I bought it I still thought “How the fuck am I supposed to fit my entire life into this tiny bag and carry it on MY back?!” Even after packing and re-evaluating a million times I feel like I need every single item. I question that thought when I put it on and realize how heavy it is…
Shout out to Ngan for getting me these packing cubes! Life changing.

Im glad you made it safely to Australia. Did you find your bnb place ok? Did they pick you up? Are you figuring out the transit system there. It should be pretty good. Please keep us posted. Love you. TAKE CARE!!!
Definite places to check out while in Sydney:
– Spit Bridge to Manly walk – get an awesome view of the City, bay and Opera house. It’s a good 3 hr hike. Here’s a link: http://short-walks.com.au/new-south-wales/sydney/spit-bridge-to-manly-walk/
– Manly Beach – via walk or ferry
– Bondi – via train or bus
– Of course, the city, Opera house
– The Rocks
Have fun baby. ALWAYS BE CAREFUL!
