Regatta Escape to Luxury Promo: Win a trip to Shangri-la Mactan By Marcos Detourist on April 20, 2012Deciding on what clothes to pack for a long trip is always a careful and thoughtful process for me.I usually start by putting together a pile of all the clothes that I would love to bring on the trip. More often than not, I end up with a pile too big to fit in my backpack. So, I start the process of eliminating less essential items or as I call them, “backpacking luxuries.”I am guided with the lightpacking mantra, “If in doubt, leave it out!” My clothes OC–ly folded into packing cubes. I still make a conscious effort to bring a few backpacking luxuries for those special days during the trip when I want like to feel like a (non-backpacking) tourist on holiday.On a three week trip to Malaysia and Indonesia, one of those guilty pleasures was a white/red striped collared shirt I bought from Regatta.It was made to good use when I and newfound travel buddies went island hopping in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. Island Hopping in Tuanku Abdul Rahman National Park in Kota Kinabalu, MalaysiaI like laidback nautical classic style of Regatta. I usually spot one or two items that I like whenever I visit their store.Regatta announced an exciting promo this summer.
