Asia Backpacking Packing List

 Four weeks from tomorrow, I'll be boarding an airplane for four weeks in Asia! 

Here's the current plan:

• Bangkok
• Ao Nang/Krabi
• Chiang Mai
• Siem Reap
• Phnom Penh
• Bali

That means for packing, I need beach/island clothes, city clothes, jungle clothes, and temple clothes (gotta cover up!)  All need to be appropriate for sweltering weather and all need to fit in a 27-liter carry-on backpack!

This one is really going to test me.  Here's what I'm planning on bringing:

• Clothes
• Bottoms
• One pair of denim shorts
• One pair of loose-fitting lightweight black pants
• One pair of black yoga pants
• Tops
• One white short-sleeved t-shirt
• One black v-neck t-shirt
• One black tank top
• One orange 3/4 sleeved top
• One black sleeveless tunic
• One denim button-up shirt (to use as a shirt or as a layer for chilly transportation)
• Two grey workout tops, one sleeveless, one short-sleeved
• Dresses
• One black short-sleeved dress
• One blue short-sleeved dress
• Misc.
• Sleep t-shirt
• Sleep shorts
• Rain jacket (not pictured)
• Two bathing suits
• Underwear, bra, sports bra
• Shoes
• One pair Chacos/sport sandals for hiking and water activities
• One pair of Birkenstock sandals for walking and going out
• Misc.
• Quick-dry travel towel
• Dry bag
• Day pack (packable if necessary)
• Toiletries & liquids (may do another post listing these!)
• Travel gear
• Inflatable neck pillow
• Silk eye mask
• Headphones
• Phone charger
• iPhone
• Ear plugs

  

I am thrilled beyond belief to be getting this opportunity!  I'll do another post once I'm out there to follow up with what I miss and what I would ditch next time.
