My Travel Pack Has Been Purchased

My first major lesson from the Circumnavigator Grant process has been about packs. Your pack is fundamental to the journey! There is also an important difference between a hiking and a travel pack designed for Hostel stays. I've chosen the Osprey 46 for my Circumnavigator pack. It has a wide-zip open, rather than the stuff sack style typically found in camping bags. It's important that the pack carries between 40-50 L so it can fit in the carry on compartments of most planes.
