Blog Assignment #1: Essential Items

For your first blog assignment, please choose the 3-5 items you would absolutely take with you on a long trip. Again, don't include items like clothes, tickets, and money, but just personal items that are essential for you and your travel style. For each item, explain in detail why it is so important to you.

* Write 150 words (or much more!) on this topic before next Wednesday, October 12th.

* Comment on 2 of your classmates' blog introductions. Just a short comment is OK the first time. Maybe you can find someone who has something in common with you and comment on that; i.e. "Cool, you went to Canada too? I went there last year, blah blah blah..."

Happy blogging!
