Hi, my name is Brenna, and I’m an over-packer. I leave for Central and South America in 17 hours. Almost everything in my house is tucked away in boxes and stored in the basement, my cameras, kindle, and laptop are all charging, and my backpack is packed. While I’m not done (are we ever done?), I feel good. So what am I taking? I don’t think that I am the best example of what to bring on long trips, as I am a notorious over-packer and I don’t really own any basic clothing (case in point, I don’t own jeans). There are plenty of other sites that tell you how to pack really lightly, but that’s not me. Here, then, is what I’m bringing. Clothing: -3 pairs of pants, all weird and clown-like but comfortable and colourful -1 pair of cut-offs -2 long skirts -1 denim jacket -2 long-sleeved t-shirts -1 thin cardigan -1 sheer blouse -5 t-shirts/tank tops -2 purses (not pictured) -2 belts -1 nightgown -3 bras -3 pairs of socks -12 pair...
