я открыл для себя путешествия минималиста. мне хватает: 3 футболки из мериноса 2 шорт (1 плавательные) 3 трусов, 3 носков и одной кофты. из техники макбук и айфон, наушники, часы и повербанк. из гигиены щетка и бритва ( я стригусь на лысо) + небольшая аптечка. все это помещается в рюкзак bellroy 20 литров в компрессионных кубах. Я путешествую так по всей азии уже 2 года. стирая вещи сам и покупая новые по необходимости ( например новые тапочки или нижнее белье )
Never had to check it in. However, I haven't been flying with it recently on the budget airlines like Ryanair where they made the free carry-on smaller. Worst case I would have to pay a small fee to be allowed to take it on board on those airlines as well. But the good thing about backpacks is that they are pretty compressible ;)
I used to travel with a trollei back in 2019, I exchanged for backpack because, honestly, besides of confort and being easier to carry, 70% of my trolley was always empty. Also, for myself, I was tempted in buying more clothes, souvenirs, etc, because I knew I had space. On my recent trip I bought A LOT and I was able to fit everything inside a 30L backpack. I now use a Tomtoc 40L and a Quechua 24L for smaller trips. For my experience, the 40L is good if you go for cold places and you need more and warmer clothes. I also have a 40L from Quechua but I like that one more for roadtrips or camping. I don't exchange backpack for anything now. In my backpack, even if I go for 1 month, I only pack 3 to 4 cotton tshirts and 2 football thirts, usually 4 pairs of shorts (I sweat A LOT so that's why I use more), or 1 pair of shorts and 2 cotton trousers in winter time; 6 pais of underwear and socks (I always pack one extra just in case) and one puffy jacket in winter or swim shorts during summer. And a towel. I wear a hoodie in the boading proccess because you can also feel cold in the airplane and it doesn't take space in your backpack. A beannie or a cap in my head and that's it. Also the toiletries of course. You can always wash clothes wherever you go so no need to overpack. Sometimes I bring my nintendo switch or a book. I also use packing cubes, it's so much easier for pack. Great video, loved it
I forgot the tech ahaha I also have a powerbank, camera and phone charger, and a selfie controler so I can take pictures of myself if there's no one around to ask. I also have a military tag with my information in case something happens and I need medical assistance
Thanks, sounds good! I also sometimes use a smaller backpack, but only if I know it's gonna be warm. It all depends where you're going, but basically, as you said, with 35-40 litres you can go wherever you want for as long as you wish.
To be honest I didn't know the company Mystery at all. Isn't very popular where I live. I looked it up though and it looks awesome - must be comfy. The price is bit high, but I believe you only need a new backpack once in a decade so spending few more bucks shouldn't hurt
I really want to use just 30l and daypack. Need a large stocknof meds and warmer clothing. Issue is for longterm am asthmatic.. back hurts too do hip straps help please?
Yes, hip straps do help a lot. Carrying a heavy backpack without them puts all the pressure on the shoulders and back. With good hip straps and, if possible, also a solid frame at the back, the pressure will go to the waist and legs. Make sure though to adjust all the straps properly. You can also check if you can use some lighter fabrics like down jacket or merino wool - if you replace the cotton clothes with them, the backpack will be much lighter.
To be honest, I didn't weigh my bag for a long time. I have done it back in the day and it was definitely less than 7kg. For me lightweight is key but it's more for the comfort of carrying the bag.
Exactly. Needs to be "personal item" size (i e. less than 20 liters or less than 40x25x20cm) to fly for free on ryan-/wizzair. (Which is around the size of a large lady's purse/tote bag/plastic shopping bag from Aldi/Lidl. Which I actually took once as my"bag" because it fits the size restrictions) Which is possible, even for winter, but you can take a lot less stuff. Which is what you want because then your bag is so light you can take it with you everywhere all the time which really changes your travel experience (no need to backtrack to retrieve luggage -. ever). Yes, you'll need to wash your undies and socks every night but since it's going to be a maximum of one/two each it will be quick ;)
For 10 years of world travel,I only carry 1 bag. The only time I take a suitcase,they loose it in Singapore 😂, I buy 2 shorts and 2 t-shirts,and I was good to go 😂
Very informative but please loose the music...distracting
Thanks Jackson, I'll try to make it less distracting next time!

I agree about the music. Not necessary.and it is definayely not in the background.
Putting this in my travel playlist permanently.
Great video 🤌🏻 You can’t imagine how much you helped 🙏🏻
So happy to hear that, thanks!
Patent z reklamówkami to dla mnie game changer ! :) Zawsze oglądam do końca, by usłyszeć "do zobaczenia" :)

Great video but music is too loud even for my TV media systems
Thank you! Yes, you're totally right, still learning to make better videos. I tried to keep the volume down in the next videos ✌️
Thanks for make packing easier! 👌
You are going places, subscribed!
A lot of good ideas in this video.
Thanks 🙏
This is AWESOME
Thanks!
Great video ❤
What about your Airline experience with your Kestrel 38? Did they let you carry it on? Or make you check it in the hold?
Never had to check it in. However, I haven't been flying with it recently on the budget airlines like Ryanair where they made the free carry-on smaller. Worst case I would have to pay a small fee to be allowed to take it on board on those airlines as well. But the good thing about backpacks is that they are pretty compressible ;)

@@everydaynormaltraveler totally! And it's so much easier
The Kestrel looks quite nice! Did you look at the Mystery Ranch Bridger 35? Seems to meet your criteria, but quite a bit more expensive.
To be honest I didn't know the company Mystery at all. Isn't very popular where I live. I looked it up though and it looks awesome - must be comfy. The price is bit high, but I believe you only need a new backpack once in a decade so spending few more bucks shouldn't hurt
Very helpful!!!! Thanks so much. Your accent is beautiful. Are you perhaps from Austria or Germany? Wonderful!
Awesome, thanks!
Agree on the music- distracting, repetitive, and too loud.
I really want to use just 30l and daypack. Need a large stocknof meds and warmer clothing. Issue is for longterm am asthmatic.. back hurts too do hip straps help please?
Yes, hip straps do help a lot. Carrying a heavy backpack without them puts all the pressure on the shoulders and back.

You can also check if you can use some lighter fabrics like down jacket or merino wool - if you replace the cotton clothes with them, the backpack will be much lighter.
What did it weigh?
Hi Louise, I don't remember anymore but probably around 6-8 kg's.
lol the bag you recommended isn’t even carryon compliant. I use my 30l ULA dragonfly. Fits under seat in front
Well, mine fit too :)
Hope your bag is 7 kilos total?😊
To be honest, I didn't weigh my bag for a long time. I have done it back in the day and it was definitely less than 7kg. For me lightweight is key but it's more for the comfort of carrying the bag.
Most budget airlines would make you put a bag that size and weight in the hold so you’ve saved nothing
Exactly. Needs to be "personal item" size (i e. less than 20 liters or less than 40x25x20cm) to fly for free on ryan-/wizzair.

No , I was wrong. Perhaps you are from Russia? Maybe you grew up in Austria AND Russia! :))
Close! I'm polish so the accent might be similar to russian :P
@@everydaynormaltraveler Yes! The great Polish men. You also have so many of the same sounds as my beloved, late Austrian husband! Thanks.

Lessons learned! And you're right, if you don't have too much choice it turns out there's not much needed :)
There is something known as undergarments.
