Whatever you pack, keep in mind the rule of 3's...

Generally speaking, the human body can survive for:

3 minutes without oxygen
3 hours without shelter
3 days without food
3 weeks without food

If you keep these rules in mind, you will be able to prioritize what and how you pack.

(This should generate some conversation!)
