I'm thinking about it, I've got a lot of heavy duty shit in my house (big tv, shitload of sound gear, record/cd collection) but I want to go out and live my life a little, so I'm thinking of finding somewhere to store my crap, and backpacking around australia, anyone else done this before? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, and a guide on stuff I should probably pack would be appreciated too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
take a torch, in case it gets dark. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
btw, that sounds like a really good idea. don't forget your mp3 player..i'd say that's the only thing you will need really. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
take a melodica.... everyone will be your friend then! |

I think I might need clothes too, I'm thinking of bringing my hard drives too, (hook up at peoples places) what sort of damage can they withstand during travel, would it be alright if I wraped them up in soft clothes or something? |
||||||||

|
|
if you're off on travels don't take your hard drives with you. leave your past behind. you wont miss it |
||||||||

|
don't bring your computer shit. just take the minimum. at most take some music, a camera if that's your persuasion. don't bring anything you wouldn't mind having stolen from you. |

dude, my fucking MUSIC is on it... |
||||||||
|
|

I don't have to worry about getting mugged, I'm tuff. I've only got a cd player, so I'll probably have to compress the music I want into a wallet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so? music is my life, but there is more to life than music |
||||||||
|

|
it's like salt though, you GOTTA have salt. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
but surely you sleep? i don't know exactly what sort of backpacking journey you're going to be on, but from my experience, the odd crook will wait until you're asleep to make their move. you should burn copies of your cds on cd-rs instead of bringing the originals. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's an idea, if only I had a cd burner *dramatic orchestral brass stab* what if my backpack is my pillow? MULTITASK! (yeah you've got a good point) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah, some backpacks are more comfortable than others. that's up to you. ;) maybe a friend will copy the cds for you? are you abandoning your place and things altogether or just leaving for an inderminate amount of time? maybe leave your valuables with friends and family and have someone watch your place while you're away? |

I'm going out to find a nice place to live specifically, I'm sick of sydney, I want to move to melbourne, but I want to see more places before I make the decision, thus the trip, I could prolly borrow a cdr off someone... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, it is a great idea. i think it's important to see other places and travel like that. |
