Like who cares how much stuff you carry and what others carry? Aren't we all individuals? Aren't we all entitled to do what we want? Why do people like you have to insinuate your way is right and ours is wrong? If I want to bring my kitchen sink, why can't I? After all, it's my tour, it's my life - right? I don't judge you because you are a minimalist, don't judge others because they're not. Also, I have tons of "stuff" and I like it all and I am bloody well happy - extremely happy. What upsets me is people who think everybody should mold into their way or there's something wrong with them. When you come to BC and you see a cyclist with a polka-dot helmet on and she's smiling - do the right thing, wave and smile back. Life's too short to be so opinionated (narrow-minded). Smile, it won't kill you.
