must-haves for solo travelers 🌍✈️ 

“A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value - you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a mini raft down the slow heavy river Moth; wet it for use in hand-to- hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you - daft as a bush, but very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough. More importantly, a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: non-hitch hiker) discovers that a hitch hiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, face flannel, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet weather gear, space suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the hitch hiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitch hiker might accidentally have "lost". What the strag will think is that any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is is clearly a man to be reckoned with.” ― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Hi Kendra, this is a nice collection of practical pieces of equipment that you can really use on a trip. Very successful and I wish you exciting trips and a great summer.

First 💃🏼💕

Actually this video came right on time. I‘m planning my first solo trip this summer 💃🏼 Also I’m a Ghanaian studying in Germany and hopefully we get to meet oneday. Thanks for the tips ☺️💕

Hicpro looks like a German drink container

Hi Kendra, is it just my preception that you are talking much faster these days? Somehow I have the impression that you used to speak a bit more comfortably, so that people could understand you better as a German. You had already addressed this topic in an earlier video (i.e. that the Germans talk too fast for you). Or do you assume that mainly native US guys watch your videos?
