IT ALL FITS!!!
Well, today I packed my bag for my trip around the world, and much to my relief and slight suprise it did all fit.

I wanted to be the first to write a comment. Your webpage is awesome! It is very well done and you did a lot of work for it. Your backpacking guide is textbook and should be a resource for all backpackers (well except guys, I don't think they'll need the bras). I'm excited for you and Robin. I am willing to chip in 100,000 won for you to go!!! Yeah, that's right. Great site.
Wow to think that is all you are taking is amazing and for it to only be 18lbs is AWESOME.You'll have a great time and I can't wait to see more of your adventure!! Love ya and you will truely be missed by ALL!!!
Good luck to you from a stranger that just randomly got to your site from hitting "next blog"! On a much smaller scale, I went to Costa Rica on a similar experience about 16 years ago after I finished college - God Bless!
