Tips!

·        Reuse plastic bags and don't bring to much to avoid generating trash

·        Bring a soap shampoo that is bio degradable.

·        Bring a tooth paste that is environmentally friendly or use baking soda.

·        Don't bring any disposable cutlery (plastic cups, knifes, forks etc...)

·        If using batteries - bring rechargeable batteries.

·        Travel Light: 
After collecting all of the stuff you want to bring you can divide them to three groups:    the things I really need ,  stuff I don't really need but it will be
nice to have, stuff I just want to bring. and then :  try to take less from the stuff in the first group, try not taking things that the chances you will use
them is low, try not to take big bottles of soap/shampoo and take only one book for sharing books within the group!

 Remember - Weight Limit total is 10 Kilograms
Try not to bring more, you can bring more but you'll have to take care of it and carry it :)
We are not able to take extra load on the trailer

·        How's the weather?
On March (the first month of the journey) we'll be in the desert. Rain is very rare but possible, it gets windy sometimes
The days will usually be worm and sunny (light but long clothes and a hat).  The nights will be cool (long pants and a sweater or light jacket).
Temperatures are around 16 to 24 Degrees centigrade which are 61 to 75 Degrees Fahrenheit.
You can sleep in a light sleeping bag with or without a tent – according to what you're used to.
In the following months it will get warmer and there will likely be almost no rain.

 ·        Bring a winter suit covering all body
