Need a tent, backpack, sleeping pad, and sleeping bag.
Want it light, want it cheap (which is unfortunately not a good combo)
In Spain/Barcelona right now so not possible to order from all the specialty online dealers unfortunately
will start travel from spain (21C at night atm)
but plan to use same gear in eastern europe in winter (5C at night and colder) so basically 3 season - and will patch up w thermal underwear + layers to 4 season...

Based on friends/this site/google ...

backpack: quecha forclaz 50 UL = 55euro (max 110$)

tent: ferrino or kelty salida 2 100 / 110 euro (max 190$)

pad: thermarest z-lite 28eur / nemo astro insulated 70eur (100$)

sleeping bag ?? friend bought decathlon/quecha one but not to happy w it ... willing to invest around 180$/130euro mark.

Problem is that everything in europe seems pretty expensive - except for the quecha gear - any shop recommendation also appreciated.

All advice very much appreciated !
