Before the likes of tweezers, straighteners, bras, cleaning products, toothpaste, toilet roll ....

Some things I class as essential items although they really just make life easier, but I do often think , how would I cope!!

I lived on a beach for a year in Central America. Middle of nowhere. Beach one side rain forest the other and it really is amazing how well you do cope after a while without mod cons. Then you realise how simple things can actually be. It's an eye opening experience x

"You forgot to add "mobile Phone""

In my opinion they are a curse, I see everyday people glued to then.where ever they go.

Have you ever tried leaving them at home.

For me I can't live with out cable ties, they have been used by me for anything from paintballing to keeping my fairing on to my motorbike when the bolts snapped

Dock leaves are good, especially when you've squatted over a stinging nettle
