Several pillows. I have a whole sleep system ... definitely not just the basics.
I guess I don't call wool socks a luxury item. I wear them for biking year round here in NH. Heck I was wearing them last year on my trip even down in the Gulf Coast states in July. Any other sock wear is rather stupid. Wool does it all and it does it the best of anything out there...why you wear anything else for footwear.
