I've recently been made aware of the urgent need for a gobag in my life. The earthquakes in the news could happen near me

I was thinking a light weight bag by the front door

very light weight sandals
electrolytes
change of clothes
expandable water bottle
cash
copy of emergency contacts
copy of passport
face masks
water life straw or purification tablets
small emergency ration like pemmican
extra USB cables
hand crank USB charger?

This has to be light weight im afraid I'll add so much it would slow me down if I have to climb down my building in an emergency

Where you live in the world decides a lot.

Add a bigger fixed blade knife. Good for defence, scare people away, splitting wood,

Para cord. Rope is useful Radio- hand crank Solar power source

My major use case is earthquake/flood have to abandon my primary residence situations, I live in a very hot and tropical environment, water is everywhere just not clean.

Those are great additions

Para cord
Radio (maybe baofang?)
Crank/Solar Power generator with USB
Fixed blade knife
multi-tool

Ideas I got from https://youtu.be/VM_12ZMAtW0

Compass
Headlamp
Alcohol pens
Duct Tape folded into square
Local area map
gloves
grayl water filter (looks bulky)
condor prime 21 back (i think maybe a water proof backpack might be better for a gobag)

If you live in the tropics consider a large military type poncho and a small hammock. Sleeping on the ground invites bugs.

Maybe small stone light like the ones runners wear for road safety.
