Living Ultralight really means simplifying your life and your gear to allow you to do and accomplish more. Some people think that being an ultralight backpacker is a suffer fest, but that is a big misconception.

Being ultralight is really about the mindset of having confidence in your gear and what you really need, enabling you to leave behind anything you might not need. By doing that, you can feel more light and free on the trail and really have a much more enjoyable time.

Once you understand the Live Ultralight mindset, it comes naturally to apply it to all parts of your life. If you want to travel internationally rather than have 3 suitcases full of stuff you can utilize one carry on backpack and simplify the whole process. By simplifying you break down barriers that keep you from actually doing things.
