whoaa.. that's a lot of and complete things to bring everyday and everywhere... but as you said above, there's a rationale behind the item you chose. I remember that when I used to live near the coastal area after the tsunami hit my hometown in December 26th, 2004, for about 5 years.. I prepared a big carrier with many basic kits for survival in case the earthquakes hit again and I need to flee to the escape hill and thinking that I can help the kids and other refugees with anything I have. but later I learned that the most important thing to bring and use in any situation is my conciousness.
thank you for sharing this, it would be funny if I show you my EDC.. hahaha, but nope.. you don't need to compare because we have different activities and needs. thanks to @buckaroo who has featured you in her post for the pay it forward contest this week. though I read your warning about 2000 words but this is too good to let unread.
hope to read more about the use of your EDC @sir-thrive and the blinking waist-band-bag is really awesome.
Although our needs are different, I still love seeing other lists. It's so interesting to see what others need as opposed to me. Thank you for the kind words.
