I will be in urban environments for the most part, in Europe and Asia, though I will be moving through mountainous and forresty areas at times. I need to be prepared for everything!

glo sticks for light. bandages and antiseptic oitments.
Sterno for fire and a mess kit for food. I would also get a emergency space blanket and keep it in there as well.
Some scissors, a swiss army knife, finger nail clippers, bug spray and sunscreen/burn ointment.
and snack bars for emergency foods in case you get lost.
And a rain poncho that can be used for a small shelter if needed.

With every day pass, our country is getting into more and more trouble. The inflation, unemployment and falling value of dollar are the main concern for our Government but authorities are just sleeping, they don’t want to face the fact. Media is also involve in it, they are force to stop showing the real economic situation to the people. I start getting more concern about my future as well as my family after watching the response of our Government for the people that affected by hurricane Katrina.
According to recent studies made by World Bank, the coming crisis will be far worse than initially predicted. So if you're already preparing for the crisis (or haven't started yet) make sure you watch this video at http://www.familysurvival.tv and discover the 4 BIG issues you'll have to deal with when the crisis hits, and how to solve them fast (before the disaster strikes your town!) without spending $1,000s on overrated items and useless survival books.

In addition to the answers above, have a tri-band GSM/PCS mobile phone (900/1800 are used in Europe/asia, 1900 in America and Japan) that is unlocked from the operator. Most modern GSM/PCS phones are tri-band. If you already own one, see if it's locked by putting a different operator's sim into it. You can find unlock codes on the internet or pay 10 pounds in London to have it done for you. Every country in Europe and asia sells cheap prepaid sims (5 pounds or less). It will save you a fortune on your calls and a phone is essential for meeting up with people that you meet along the way. Also have a spare toothbrush or two. You'll be glad you have it when you drop yours on some dirty floor somewhere by accident.

I think you need really, really good medical insurance. Even if it costs a bundle. It sounds like you will be going some places where you may be at high risk of illness or injury, and you need to make sure you can get the best medical treatment possible in case you need it.

A bottle of iodine to purify water, and use as an antiseptic. One drop in a mug of water will do if you can't boil it. Toilet paper is hard to get in some countries as well.
