I thought coffee was a major food group, essential for nutrition!

Oh, it is. Believe me! Well, not sure about the nutrition part, but I do know my body won't function without it! And by the number of ways to do it it warrants its own group!

As a Brit, I'm very particular about my Nescafe instant coffee and won't leave home without it.

Sorry mate, but that just made me cringe! While caffeine is a necessity, I can't deal with Nescafe.. The way I do is is as follows:







But to each their own!

My coffee mug. An old, outdated melsomething plastic, blue thing. Holds about 12oz. Won't go without it.

A watch. On long distance trips, people say it's a luxury. Is the sun out? Start hiking. Is it night time? Go to bed. But I use it in conjunction with a map or guide to figure out how fast I'm traveling and how far I have to go. I could just look on my phone (which is also my camera), but that's an inconvenience.

A pillow. Small, packable camp pillow. A balled up article of clothing isn't a pillow.

I always bring a book of short stories. Reading horror tails by Clark Ashton Smith in a deserted forest in the middle of night is usually a good idea.

I haven't tried hiking with the ukulele yet, but it's on the books. It would have to be a solo trip, as my ukulele skills are sub-par.
