“Happiness is not so much in having as sharing, we make a living by what we get but we make a life by what we give”
I literally want to give you the backpack off my back, and all the gear with it…My sleeping bag, and tent. Someone out there needs change or mabe they have already started. Someone out there wants experience and may need a small hand to start it. Love reflects love and here is how I’m loving you. There more I travel the more I realise I don’t need much, So I want to give you my gear and not only lighten my load but share it with love. All pretty new, it doesn’t come with a receipt but it comes with a story, love and a small change.
A macpac 50 litre backpack
A macpac 500 escapade sleeping bag
A companion pro-hiker tent
Share this with someone you think may need a helping start, or nominate someone on their behalf. Like my page and message me with a letter or video telling me where you would use it and any lovely story about yourself 🙂 My facebook page link is at the bottom of the page along with my email. I’ll pick someone and if possible I will personally come and drop it off. Small changes, Big love.
All I ask is that when you have finished your adventure and have no need for the gear that you pass it on to someone who is ready to start their adventure and have this backpack passed on with love.
This isn’t just about me giving something away to help someone, it’s to pay foward all the times someone has smiled at me, talked to me and helped me with my life, shaping who I am today. So hopefully this video reminds you to do something small, to someone you may not even know.
Small changes, Big love.

Some of you have been following Eamon Wood’s travels in his wheelchair across the USA.. far from his own home in New Zealand. Eamon is offering some of his equipment completely free to someone who wants to start their own adventure.. Head over and find out more.. There may be someone you know who is planning to travel to find their own path who could use a tent,sleeping bag and a backpack.. #recommended

Wow, you are so considerate to those around you! I am still a bit too young to travel, although that will be a passion of mine when the time comes. So I feel someone else out there could need this more than myself. I just wanted to say, you are absolutely amazing, being so considerate of those around you!

There are many places around where we live that we should find time to explore too, so don’t forget you don’t have to start with travelling on the other side of the world. Where are you from?.

Thank you, that is a great reminder for me. I live in Washington, and I’ve traveled with my family a bit to places like Oregon, California, Idaho, and Wyoming I believe. Like I said, I am still under 18, therefore unable to travel independently. Entirely, I love the idea that something small for us could mean a big change for someone else. I think that’s really important to know.

Well not long and you can become an intrepid traveller 🙂 the USA is so big there are so many places to explore. I find smiling at people is the smallest thing but makes the biggest difference especially to people you pass by

True, not much longer! And I have found even smiling, as you said, something that really makes a big difference. The smallest actions really do shine forth. Oh, and I was going to contact you: I nominated your blog for the Sunshine Blogger Award, which is for bloggers that are creative, inspiring, positive, and uplifting. If you want I can give the link so you can see more about it. Least I could do for your blog!
