Yes yes I know they’re called “Go” bags but I had to be a little Jersey about it and call it a GTFO bag.
With all the hurricane prep energy going around (I’ve got family and a client in Florida, that are going to get smacked pretty hard by Irma), and with all the news about North Korea, combined with the fact no one has taken Trump’s twitter account away from him yet, I felt it necessary a few months ago to start a little Go bag in case of emergencies.
Of course, there are those type of emergencies on the apocalyptic scale, but Ive also been in situations dog sitting where we lost power and heat and I was DAMN thankful I had some of the things I’m about to show ya in my kit.
I know I’m a LONG way away from having a proper setup but I’m a believer that something is better than nothing, so heres my little something. I keep it in the car just in case…

- Copper Water Bottle
- First Aid Kit (old but still sealed in plastic need an upgrade)
- Ramen Noodles (sealed in zip bags)
- Auro Liquid Gold Water Purifying Solution
- Cliff Bar (need to grab a few more of these)
- Keyring iPhone Charging Cable
- Water Proof Folding Duffel Bag
- Arc Electric Lighter (usb charged, windproof, rain resistant)
- Tactical Flashlight (courtesy @teamhumble)
- Travel Alcohol Sanitizer Pen
- One Plus 10,000MA power bank (2 usb ports, discontinued)
- 2 Water Bottles
- Water Resistant Travel Zip Parka (Uniqlo)
Here’s a shot with the bag in fold mode, thinking of taking this with me when I travel because it holds tons but can become quite small, and waterproof is always a plus!
I started an Amazon wishlist of things I promised myself I’d add to cart here and there as I could afford so as not to overwhelm myself with the costs.
Here’s what I’m looking to get:
Oddly enough, the electric arc lighter came this morning, and I’m pretty happy with it. Aside from it making me feel like I’ve got my hands on some Federation Starship technology, I like the idea that there’s no fuel, or flammable materials and it’ll last 300 lights before needing a recharge.
So! Do you have a go bag? Notice anything I've missed and should throw in my wishlist? Let me know!
Stay safe friends
