Creative meals are inevitable.

And local delicacies.

Through the kindness of strangers, even a few home-cooked meals along the way.

Meals are some of the most memorable experiences on the road. ?A moment alone can alter my mood from ragged to revived, and a?contemplative apple on the roadside or an awakening cup of coffee can affect?the pace of the day. Making time to cook and eat is an important step to a fun, sustainable adventure.

For a nearly complete list of DIY stove designs, visit the Zen Backpacking page dedicated to alcohol and multi-fuel stoves. ?I will be presenting the items I carried this summer, categorically, for the remainder of the week. ?Currently, the only place where I have published a packing list is on on the Velo Orange Blog in a post entitled ?Packing the Campeur Bikepacking Style, Part 2?.
