 Although I want to travel light, I really, really want to bring a computer. And what gadget would be better than an Acer Aspire One mini PC?
It weighs less than 1 kilo and has everything I need - 160 GB harddisk, 1 GB RAM, 3 USB ports, memory card reader, Webcam, wireless Internet and Win XP Home. |

Travel towel
A microfiber travel towel is a must these days. Of course, a regular towel is comfy, but takes up a lot of space and does not dry as quickly.
Just fasten it to the outside of your backpack after use, and it's completely dry in a few hours or less. I'm bringing a big one and a small one (thank you Birgitte!). |

TidyPack, the greatest Norwegian invention since the cheese slicer! This is the gadget that first got me thinking about all the gadgets I could get to make long term travelling a little easier.

USB battery charger In the series Electronic Travel Gadgets there is one you cannot do without unless you want to buy batteries all the time: The battery charger. It is tempting to bring electronics that don't require a charger (because you know you will leave the hotel without it at some point), but then you need to bring batteries and battery charger instead. |

 Travel first aid kitFill it up with the regular stuff to keep it all in one place. Painkillers (but keep original packaging so you don't end up like these guys at the end of this blog entry), something against travel sickness and traveller's diahorrea, bandages and so on. I'm also bringing plastic gloves, penicillin, malarials, special pills for keeping your stomach happy, something for rinsing wounds and a few other items. |
