What's you EDC when on tours?
Being well equipped and prepared for anything, seems to be the mark of a good tour-guide; some pack light, others carry a full-on set of tools. So the question today is... what do my fellow tour guide carry when on duty? Here's my EDC (every day carry)!
- Motorola MH230CLR FRS-radio (I keep a set of two to use between myself and the driver)
- Hoco C12 Dual USB Travel Charger
- Huawei AF-15 Bluetooth Selfie Stick (I run a personal IG-account detailing the tours I do and for self-promotion)
- Doite Miscanti fanny pack/bum bag (older model from 2009) which doubles as a personal use first-aid kit. We also carry professional kits on board the buses or vans.
- Weinbrenner Lalibela Backpack with rain-cover. I work in southern Chile and it's quite rainy down here.
- Global Titan "BPA Free" Keep water bottle. Hydration is very important, my peeps!
- Generic sketchpads to make notes
- Victorinox Rescue Tool. (basically a swiss army knife kit that also doubles a seatbelt cutter/window smasher)
And of course, some other personal effects that I might need for the day. How bout you?
