    Did you know? Falling coconuts kill more people each year than shark attacks? As a pharmacist, it’s my job to know what medicines do. As a traveler, it’s my job to pack them up in as small of a package as possible. A lot of what we’ll bring along depends on where we’re going…the kit for ten weeks in remote [...]

    Picking the right backpack was by far one of the toughest parts of our around-the-world adventure…well; it was hard for me anyway.
