I have started doing my research about what hostels to stay in, where I am going to look for work, what area I would like to live/work, where I want to travel, the list goes on and on. I spend my weekend researching so many aspects of my trip so I have plans when I get there. On top of planning for there, I'm planning for the trip, I will have to buy new luggage, new travel gear, etc....all the stuff to "backpack" for a year. I've found a travel backpack I plan to buy, and the packing boxes (cubes), I would like to use to stay organized. On top of saving for travel expenses, food, hostel locations, and travel gear; I'm also saving to pay all the wonderful bills I will have here, such as student loans, credit card payments. I feel like I've come along way on saving, but it's not cheap to get away for a year, and as the date keeps creeping closer and closer (still 5 months away), I'm starting to buy things now and then when I occasionally have added money. Any thoughts or comment people have on the travel gear, organizers, backpacks, etc. I would appreciate any advice! If you have used these brands or suggest different kinds for organizers/backpacking for my trip, I would like some feedback!
