Inspired by their passion and enthusiasm, we took eight individuals on a journey to the wilds of Oregon. Read below to find out more about one of the inspiring people featured in our Holiday 2012 campaign.

Meet Noah: a soccer player, cinema lover and big time foodie from Wilson, WY. He is a laid back boarding school grad with dreams of traveling the world and even hoping to make it to the moon someday.

To get to know the personalities of our holiday cast we took a peek inside their suitcases and had them describe the contents in their own words. Take a look at what Noah can’t live without.

Soccer Ball: I’ve been playing soccer for longer than I can remember. It’s been a staple in my life and I don’t really know what I would be like without one.

Flannel Shirt: There is something to be said for clothing that looks just as good now as it did 50 years ago.

Belt Buckle: I got this for my 13th birthday and I’ve worn it almost everyday since. At first it was because I was a stick and my pants would fall down. Now I almost feel naked without it.

Carhartt Vest: I got this at Hungry Jack’s general store in Wilson, WY. Much like the flannel, it is a classic, I’m not sure if it will ever go out of style or fall apart.

Book: I love reading and Hemingway is my favorite author. Having a selection of some of his best work available is always nice. It’s great for a plane ride home or even just a lazy evening in your room.
