So many shoes so little space.

So the packing begins. I have never packed for a month long trip.. with such a different climate. It leads me to ask such important questions as: How many hoodies should I bring? How many pairs of colorful striped socks will I need? Which color chucks will I get the most use out of? My immediate response to each of these questions is "all of them." I have a feeling I will have to make some difficult packing decisions. I will also have to do a test run with my newly purchased hiking backpack. It can only way 15kg (whatever that is) and must  have everything I need to survive for 12 days. My Wednesday night is going to be a busy one.
