so basically i'm planning a trip to amsterdam at the moment (no not for the coffee shops) and i need to do it on a very low budget, so im only going to be taking a single bag with me, one that i can take in the cabin on the airplane... so no knives!
But as every prepper should i'd like to take some emergency equipment with me, but im at a loss as to what i should take with me, the main items ill take is going to be clothing and a camera, as well as passport, money lighters and cigarettes, as well as a small bag with a few toiletries. im only going for 10-14 days so i dont need much.
But i will need a survival kit of sorts,
obviously there will be some tinder and a firesteel,
a few metres of string, both for tinder and general cordage use,
a compact fishing kit (fishing line, a few hooks(well paper clips, hooks arent allowed apparently), and a weight or 2....ive only done fishing once so im not that knowledgeable on the matter, but i think that should suffice)
an emergency bivvy bag (the kind that packs really flat and has that shiny mylar on the inside)
a few water purification tablets,
a tampon,
a small roll of tape,
a small sewing kit,
some matches,
and a couple of non lubricated condoms.
thats all i can really think of, so any more suggestions would be appreciated....also if anyones been to Amsterdam and have any recommendations of places to go or places to stay, or even just general travelling tips, i'd love to hear them!
**SIDE NOTE**
whilst checking a few regulations on carry on luggage i found out that your allowed knitting needles!
"Knitting needles are permitted in your carry-on baggage or checked baggage."
how crazy is that?? any terrorist with some hand to hand combat training could easily take over an air craft with a knitting needle! in my mind a knitting needle is probably more dangerous than a knife, after all a stab will do more damage than a slash will, granted it wont look as horrific, but it'll puncture organs and do some damage. whilst i think alot of aircraft restrictions are ridiculous and overkill, i cannot believe that something like a knitting needle is permitted
