Working with JanSport has got the Nookmag editorial team thinking further about the concept of adventure. Previously, our Managing Editor Gracie wrote about “launching your physical self into the air”, and “reaching the top of a mountain”. She also mentioned wandering aimlessly with the best of friends, because good company undoubtedly makes up half of a great adventure! Whilst the word “adventure” evokes a sense of exhilarating fun, surely every individual perceives it differently? We decided to dig deeper into the topic and asked the rest of the Nookmag team what their ideal adventure was.
Sim Cik, Head Honcho of Nookmag
“I prefer impromptu adventures – a trip without a plan. We’ll see how the trip unfolds and celebrate it later. I’d pick the Barber Green Right Pack to fit all my barang-barang. Firstly, the handphone. Next, my notebook, Fujifilm X100S camera, extra batteries, passport so you can cross over the border any time, and snacks. Lots of snacks.”
Gracie, Managing Editor
“My kind of adventure involves heading outdoors, exploring a foreign place, and engaging in adrenaline-pumping activities. In my Right Pack World Acapulco Ombre Stripe, I’ll have water, coin purse filled with cash and lip balm, and my Blackbird Fly or LCA Camera!”
Eliza, Writer
“While I do enjoy the occasional holiday, most of my travelling and adventurous pursuits happen through books. Cliche, I know, but a book with an electrifying plot is my kind of adventure. I’d pick the Red Spell Right Pack and stuff it with a good book, my La Sardina film camera (a good book inspires me in different ways), and my parka.”
Chee, Sports Photographer
“The ideal adventure to me would be going to new places and taking in new sights without any expectations at all. Interacting with the locals is a must and chancing upon other adventures, be it rock climbing or hiking, will be a bonus. In my Viking Red Right Pack, I’ll bring the essentials: my trusty Nikon D700, Leatherman Rebar Multi-Tool and a pocket compass.
