Other advice is great, but I also have some financial related advice on stuff you already have.

If you already own things like cookware, tools, collectibles, clothes, etc. downsizing to a manageable amount is a good idea because you might need to move it frequently. Sell what you don’t need, and the things you should focus on keeping are sturdy clothes you wear frequently, basic toiletries, small and expensive to replace items, and a small amount of keepsakes. If you need to stay with friends a week or less at a time being able to move everything quickly is a huge benefit.
