Hey Ron! A few things vaccines won’t help include Montezuma’s Revenge (aka Travelers diarrhea) and acute histamine reactions (allergies to plants/dust/insects that you lack exposure/tolerance for) that can occur when travelling. I always as my dr for a prescription anti-diarrhea pill and grab some benadryl at the grocery. Since Nalgene bottles are “uncool” for drinking out of these days, you can find them cheap and they make for perfect travel canisters for pills, creams, papers, etc that you don’t want crushed or damaged in your pack. I still use them to drink or collect water for cooking/boiling but I’m commonly uncool…
Awesome thanks for letting me know. I’ll look into all of these things you’ve mentioned. Lord knows I don’t want to be hiking through Columbia with mud butt :-X
