    Gear list

    You seem to be questioning yourself a lot, I've found that while traveling you just gotta say fuck it and learn by experience. Take what you think you'll need and you'll learn what was and wasn't necessary.

    wanderlust

    I'm still pretty green, but this sounds very ambitious, there is a high chance that you will be lost, stranded in a cornfield, or taken the wrong way. This is not to discourage you, You should definitely do careful research, read the guide posted in the train hopping section, find someone...
