RTW Packing Secondary Essentials

Part 1 (RTW Travel Packing Essentials) here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnkK4Gin3bk

I've been traveling for 8 months starting in Japan, the Philippines, Borneo, Indonesia, Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, (back to the US & Japan for the holidays), and India.
I planned to make a video like this and actually shot it once before I left, but hated it, so I didn't upload. I thought it'd be better in the middle of the trip anyway. Not too much has changed; although, as you would imagine, I've gotten rid of some things (will probably get rid of more after this big cleanup today).

If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer. You can find me here or on Twitter at:

you look healthier here than your last tolokyo vid about the quakebook... your eyes were just deeply sunken there... i think anti-dysentery medications should be added as essentials too.

@loophole1642 Very much appreciate the concern! The Quakebook vid was done through my internal webcam with bad lighting, so that makes a big difference -- but you're right...I've been struggling with stomach problems for about a month and a half now in India. I'm just now finally starting to get over it. Thanks again for the concern! ^^

that's a cool audio recorder!

[TolokyoRAW]

@charlycheer As @qiranger pointed out - it's a Zoom Q3. Great audio recorder!! I should use it much more than I do. >.<

Condoms... Tissues.... Inflatable bed that you can set up anywhere.. Powerful antibiotics and emergency money! I see a pattern emerging!
