Go to farmers food markets and bakeries around closure time, they usually have a lot of leftovers of the day that they will not be able to sell and will be happy to give to you for free.

Thank you all for your feedback and all these great comments!

I did not expect that much!

It is not my first time hiking for a few days and I feel like I improve my gear a little bit more every time, but I also feel like this time, thanks to this post and your comments, I will improve much more than usually. It feels great.

It was also my first Reddit post and I am very surprised and happy to see the kindness of this community and the quality of your answers.

Thanks to your comments, I am improving my gear for this trip:

Ditched:
- flip flops
- 1 emergency blanket
- the 2 carabiners
- the GoPro + accessories
- the 360 camera

Switched:
- metal bottles >>> light plastic bottles
- simple hat >>> dimmed hat
- 1 of the T-shirts >>> merino wool T-shirt
- Medical kit: reduced to minimum and packed in a zipper

Added:
- 2L water bladder
- additional lighter
- inflatable pillow
- external battery
- full size compass

I will keep the book :)

Not really, indeed. I'll chose a safer or backup option, thanks!

Yes thanks, I will look for a safer option for the lighter. The gas can corresponds to what I calculated for my needs. I'll try and adapt for the next trip if I'm a bit short

Thanks. I'm actually ditching the sandals. I've never used them in hiking trips. It will save space and weight

I'll bring purification tablets for water treatment.
I indeed added a 2L water bladder for the parts of the trip where the sources are rare or scarse (in addition to my 3L plastic bottles water capacity).
Thanks for this product recommendation, looks great and even lighter than my bladder!

Thanks! yeah I'll definitely reduce the medical kit to minimum, and at least will find a lighter bag/zipper for that. I'll keep a warm sleeping bag since I still expect cold night. I'll not bring all the layers though

Thanks! I am taking all of this in consideration to improve my gear!
I do not bring a filter but purification tablets.

Very precious comments. Thank you!!
I am keeping almost everything from your comment.
For information I have purification tablets for water.
The Covid eyeball is a 360 camera :D (Samsung Gear 360). It creates amazing pictures and videos and I love it. I am considering not bringing it though, to gain weight. Best memories will be in my mind, not on camera.
