my friend and i have the running joke of sending a picture of us in a new place in a specific jacket. i have the wonderful opportunity of going backpacking next september-november in new zealand and australia with a group for 70 days (with stops of course!). it’s pretty lightweight, but with one problem: it’s a ripped jean jacket. is it even practical to bring the jacket with me, or will i regret wearing it and then it end up taking up room in my pack? i’m a 16 year old (going to be 17 before the trip) teen gal, any other tips would also be appreciated!
