17 countries. 6 weeks. And one pair of underwear.

That’s what it says on the package, anyway. And what’s inside is a pair of fast-drying, lightweight underwear - wash ‘em out at night, wear ‘em again the next day. They’re comfortable, save a bunch of room in your pack, and actually, are a whole lot sexier than you’d expect. I’m already a big fan of the pair I bought from ExOfficio (they make sports bras, too!), but other brands are easy to find with a little googling.
