I seem to always make mistakes while packing, and although I think in the moment I’ve made great decisions, usually I overpack or bring items I won’t need and then forget all about what I did (and do it all over again). Since my husband and I are backpacking when we are allowed to travel again, I figured it made sense to start to reflect on my packing and what are essentials - and not - when packing!
