It has been a while since the last episode we recorded together. We've got a bunch of ideas of topics we want to cover this fall and winter on Why We Wander but we thought we'd ease back into things with a fun thought experiment inspired by a recent article in Conde Nast Traveler titled "Why I never travel without a white button down shirt." Tamara and Shannon muse about the things we pack, from favorite clothing items and travel essentials to the sentimental objects we pack to remind us of home or bring home to keep our travel memories alive.

In this episode:
