the weight of literature


Books are one of the many items required for your trip. Rather than 5 or 6 travel/phrase books look for one or two books which combine several countries or regions. Additionally, instead of 5 or 6 phrase books bring one which encompasses a large collection of languages. Rather than 15 pounds of literature in your backpack, you can significantly reduce this weight by bringing only the few books necessary. Even consider using a razor blade to surgically remove the undesired parts. Why carry around literature on countries you will not visit and languages you will not use? Please feel free to comment and post any travel suggestions you might have.
