¿Vas de viaje? ¡Cosas que no deben faltar en tu mochila!

Hola Viajeros ! 

¿Nos extrañaron? Si , lo se, lo se a pasado un tiempito pero ya estamos de vuelta con otro buen tema! 

Hoy les traemos las cosas que no pueden faltar en su mochila viajera, ya que independientemente de donde vayan, hay cosas que son necesarias en cualquier viaje. 

De seguro muchos de ustedes llevan estos en cada aventura pero siempre es bueno recordarlos.

Vamos a por ello! 

1.- Bolsa de aseo personal.

Es básico y sumamente importante llevar con nosotros estas cosas de uso diario, así que ponlas donde puedas alcanzarlas con facilidad. 
No olvides llevar en ella:
-Jabón de manos
-Desinfectante para manos
-Cepillo y Pasta Dental
-Bloqueador solar
-Repelente contra insectos (Nunca esta demás) 
-Alcohol y Algodón
-Shampoo
-Desodorante 

Si como yo, sueles tener dolores estomacales, lleva un par de pastillas como emergencia pero trata en lo sumo no usarlas. 
Cuida lo que comes ! 

Si vas a un lugar donde sabes que sera difícil ducharse, puedes optar por toallas con jabón, de las que usan en los hospitales. 
Créeme, te salvaran de muchas! 

2- Ve listo para todo clima!

Es importante que lleves, por lo menos, una muda de ropa para frió o lluvia, ademas de la ropa de clima cálido.

Nos pasó, hace poco, que fuimos a un lugar en Ecuador donde el clima es cálido la mayor parte del año e hicimos un recorrido en bicicleta pero, como debí prever, llovió torrencial mente en medio del camino. Terminamos empapados y con un frío intenso. 
Hubo impermeables desechables que por solo 1$ nos hubieran salvado de aquello, pero bueno, la experiencia fue buena. 

Lleva uno de estos contigo siempre, ya que no ocupan mucho espacio y te podrían salvar de grandes problemas en medio de una lluvia no esperada.

3.- SleepingBag 

Si, quizás piensas: Tengo hospedaje y no necesitare un sleeping...
Bien, en realidad esto es algo que debes llevar contigo siempre. Hasta una carpa puede faltar pero el sleeping no.  
Nunca se puede planear todo y hay que estar preparados para cualquier eventualidad.  
Consigue uno de unos 4 grados y te servirá para la mayoría de lugares, a menos que subas a un nevado o vayas a la patagonia. 

También no olvides llevar una manta térmica. Muy útil y no ocupa mucho espacio ademas de que son rebaratas 

4.- Zapatillas o Sandalias de goma. 

Este tipo de cosas son mas útiles de lo que aparentan. 
En especial cuando vamos a muchos lugares diferentes y queremos ducharnos, por ejemplo. 
No queremos tener problemas en los pies por un piso sucio en la ducha o cosas por el estilo. 
Ademas, este modelo de zapatillas son muy cómodas para descansar los pies después de un largo día de aventura.  

5.- Un Buen libro

No olvides empacar un buen libro cuando vayas de viaje o, en caso de que te guste escribir, lleva una libreta y apunta todo lo que vayas viendo o viviendo así podrías hacer una bitácora de cada viaje que realices. 
En ambos casos, siempre habrá tiempo para que te conectes con tu entorno y las palabras grabadas en papel. 
Es una muy buena experiencia, pruebala. 

6.- Una Copia impresa o digital de tus Documentos

¿Te imaginas tener que pasar días o hasta meses atrapado en un sitio por que perdiste o te robaron los documentos?

Pues, esto es mas común de lo que piensas y de echo a debido ir en primer lugar de esta lista pero, no lo recordé si no hasta ahora. Disculpas XD

Saca una copia notariada de tus documentos principales: C.I y Pasaporte,o en ultimo de los casos saca una foto a cada uno y envíalos a tu mail, así podrás revisarlos en cualquier parte. 

De seguro hay cosas que se me escapan en este pequeño recordatorio, pero espero que les ayude a planificar mejor su viaje. 
No dudes en dejarme tus comentarios y opiniones aquí debajo, si conoces algo mas que también sea necesario. 

También te invito a suscribirte a nuestro canal de Youtube o seguirme en Instagram y Facebook ya que se vienen muchas sorpresas!

No olvides compartir la información para contagiar a mas personas las ganas de viajar por el mundo ! 
Hasta la siguiente entrega y buenas rutas para todos ! Att.  Edisson

How to choose your first traveling backpack?

Hey there Backpackers! Are you going to leave on a travel?
How should you choose yout first backpack?

Well, it seems a simple enough question, but, choosing a backpack can become a tedious job and find the balance between price and convenience can become a real headache.


Now , this post will not give you the ideal Backpack for you, as this is more one own decision, since each must choose between capacity, size , price and brand but I can give you some advices you could Watch.
So what steps have to follow to choose correctly?

Remember, your backpack is almost the principal thing on your trip and this will bring your groceries and necessities. In addition, as a traveler, you will walk a lot , so this should be comfortable and not hurt if you carry loaded for long.

So, then we go with the first point !

First:
When you decide to be backpacker or traveler it is understood that all you 'll need is in your backpack and then grows the importance of choosing the capacity, measured in liters , that this has .

This does not mean shalt bring the whole house in the backpack , so you should see the primary and only what is necessary for your trip . The rest will come in the way.

I personally use one of 70 liters and me worked very well , considering that i measure 1.70 and this is more or less my height.

For a man, one of 70 or 80 liters would not bad, and for a woman , one of 50 or 60 liters fit perfectly .

DO NOT overload the backpack!

Come on, if the backpack has a capacity marked by something must be . Do not overload as this will affect the backpack, which in the worst case may  break it, it also directly affected your back and may you take away the desire to travel.

Second:

You fits. Far from what we could hear about whether loaded is different than empty , it has to fit in with your physiognomy , we directly talking about your hips and back .

Ideally, the backpack is directly above your hips , not half your tail, so the lower belt may be on your hips and not on the waist. This will help to distributing weight to your legs and giving a break to the back. This never hurts .

Third:

The details. this is actually a very important factor .

Belts, material and shape of distribution are of great importance when traveling for example : the epaulets .

What if these be very thin and unpadded ?

Remember that, you will carry  considerable weight and if you dont have comfortable support you will end with a severed shoulder , ok maybe that's not happen, but yes wounded and painfull .

So, the epaulets must be cushioned, padded, resilient and comfortable in the neck area .

Belts : In its entirety, must be easy to fit and not have to take off your backpack to adjust something. obligatorily should have the chest strap , as this helps to distribute the weight .

 They have to be sliding and padded in the case of the lumbar or lower belt.

Closures : Double closure forced , so if one fails the other will save you , besides that provide ease in packing or put a lock and give security, indispensable on your journey.

Back : The back or part to your back has to be padded , with belt height adjustment to regulate the load and if you may need ventilation system (very common in new backpacks )

Frame : It must be internal . This gives stability to the backpack and the ability to distribute the weight . The carbon fiber frame is commonly used and is a huge help to carry the weight of the backpack all day . Do not buy one if it does not have a frame.

Material: Must be of good material. Recalls that in the trip will spend many things to your backpack, and be abused in many places ( poor :( ... ) so it need be strong and of good material .

Waterproof : This is an important factor because, unless you will go to a place where no rain ,at all, this will need to be waterproof . This tends to raise the price. But we have other option , like mine, which are those that come with a rain cover . These are cheaper and work perfectly .

Compartments: It is essential that our backpack can divide sections so we can distribute our luggage. In addition this will allow us to keep things of quick use in a place that does not need to empty the backpack to get them.

As Fourth and last : The Price

Well, we can not clearly say something about this but , first , not buy without comparing prices before

Do not buy the first thing you see and neither the cheaper as it could get out expensive.

An approximate price could range between 120 and $ 200 for a good quality backpack .

So when choosing , review these steps since that backpack will accompany you for long.

In order, to tastes and colors, there are plenty , but as we saw there are certain things that can not be overlooked when buying a travel bag.

I hope this information will help and save in certain doubts that have touched us all .

Traveller, until the next delivery and Good routes ! Att Edisson
