you need clean water - and cigarette lighters to light fire - a good tooth brush - and some soap - and a change of underwear - insect repellent - a decent pillow.
A good knife will come in handy... maybe a screwdriver...food? Pack nuts, dried friut and potato chips, instant potato. And for canned goods, maybe rice-cream, tinned fish, and spam.
A pack needs to be replenished from time to time...
So a bug net takes precedence over bug spray.
Seeds over tinned goods.
Flints over matches or cig lighters.
Pillows are a luxury when travelling light but a stuff sack full of your limited clothes works well.
People over pack and stress their backs trying to cart around unnecessary creature comforts and other shit.
My house burned down.... pillows is the most import item on that list....lol
