Just a quick post: I decided to keep track of all the gear and expenses associated with this endeavor - for my sake and for anyone who is curious about what this whole thing actually costs. Everything is listed under "Gear & Expenses" on the side of this page.
I went to REI (Recreational Equipment, Inc) in Boston for all of the initial big purchases like the tent, sleeping bag/pad, and pack. Everything else is pieced together as I go from various stores - but a good amount from REI. Lastly, I am not including discounts/gift cards/etc (but I have had some good luck and savings on some things). **REI Lifetime Membership = 10% off purchases!

What exactly is diva wash?
ReplyDeleteDiva WASH is a liquid soap that is created with natural/non chemical ingredients to be used to wash a Diva Cup (and can be used as regular body/face/hair soap). A Diva CUP is basically an environmentally friendly, convenient, reusable device for women to use during menstruation. I could go into details but... google "diva cup" and you will find more information. Ultimately, it is fabulous for travel AND everyday (or month, haha) use. Girls - check them out! It would be great for your wallet, your convenience, and the world we are living in.
