Scattered on his bedroom floor were a backpack, at least six cameras, portable hard-drives, headphones, and a couple of batteries. Aside from the techs were two sweaters and a pair of boots. The moment his girlfriend stepped into the bedroom, she said, “Dude, are we going on a backpacking trip across Europe or photography camp?” She picked his sweaters off the floor, “Don’t tell me you’re only wearing this on the trip?”
He snatched the sweaters from her grip, “No,” he snapped, “I’m just picking out the necessities.” She crossed her arms, “I promise you, I’ll ready in an hour.”

I think I agree too. Camera gears are more important. We can buy clothes when we get to our destination. 🙂

I noticed there were some boxes of film for the cameras. Must have been the old style of cameras. Great story!

They looked like batteries for the camera when I first looked at it but now, I think you’re right, those look like films. Thank you for reading.

The rush before the trip and the most important things aren’t only those you take with you, but the ones you choose to leave behind. Lovely lines! Thank you so much for joining us again this week 🙂

I took a (just one) camera on my first big trip. I never did that again. I felt overly responsible for the expensive equipment and it ruined the fun for me. I just invest in a really quality smartphone with the best camera possible. Thank you technology!
