I love how you take the same bag for a 4 month backpacking trip, one week holiday and whole move to another country 😂 So impressed that everything fits!
😂😂 I will always make it work haha
You've moved abroad with hand luggage only??? You are absolutely bananas!!
😜🍌🎒✈️🌎
She can obviously still have things sent to her, as she will have an address. Not so cray cray🤷🏽♀️💌
I'm planning to do the same for my year abroad with a work visa in Australia.
@Nur Ich she's only going for 6 months initially and can buy things there. I'm about to move overseas permanently, and I don't have a family home where I can leave things so I'm packing as much as possible (within reason) because everything else is going in the bin- very different situation.
You need company?
I'm about to move/travel to Alaska with my 40L backpack and literally about to film my packing video today! This is so helpful!! Excited for your Mexico adventures! Your channel/life is one of my main inspirations! Thank you :)
Now THAT is impressive!! Packing for cold climate is always more difficult! Good luck! ❤️
Would you be able to make a video about the process of moving abroad, curious about the steps you need to take. Also how you managed to do this last minute? Loving this content 🤍
Yes I'll do this at some point! Maybe as a live video on RUclips or Instagram so I can answer everyone's questions 😊
I'm also really interested to learn about the paperwork and such, but then again it's a professional interest of mine 😄
Omgsh yes, I most certainly DID think you moved to Mexico without any of the packing or planning videos, and man was I bummed! So glad to see this! 😁
Take care and enjoy, can't wait to see more! 🤗
😅😅 I could never do that
Your videos helped me so much! I went on my 1st solo backpacking trip last year after graduating school in NYC. I back packed Europe for 3 months and used so many of your tips with packing, hostels and transport. I am back home in South Africa now and can't wait for my next trip!! Thanks and all the best for Mexico!
That's so cool 🤩 thanks so much ❤️
Trousers with zip pockets....where are these magical trousers from?
Yeeeesss you're going to make trousers with pockets!!!!
''I hope they don't weigh my bag'' - me everytime I travel because I'm not paying for checked luggage so I totally feel you 😂 Also, I love your packing videos! 👏🏽✨
Classic 😅
Call me a b**** but as a gate agent i would check the weight of ur backpack for sure and probably not let u take it as a cabin luggage 🤣 ( that depends if the flight is full or not)
@@Maniuzilla Haha! I'm happy to report that my backpack was checked on my recent trip in Mexico (just like 2-3 weeks ago) and it was ok! Not as heavy as I thought it was haha.
Wow you are so inspirational that you have an idea and you follow through with your plan. Especially during the virus... you have inspired me to get myself into gear. Enjoy your adventure in Mexico xx
Loved this Christian, looking forward to your Mexico videos. Enjoy and stay safe xxx
I'd be keen to see a video about logistics of moving, especially with covid-19 restrictions and what your visa situation was like, process of applying for visa etc. Great packing video, it's interesting to see how we all pack differently. I definitely lean on the overpacking side but always trying to improve 😊Good luck on the flat search for a place to live 🙌
You are THRIVING GIRL!
Also, you inspired me to do solo travel (just for 3 nights) to Byron Bay. Had the best time thanks to your tips and tricks! All the best for Mexico. :)
Yayy that makes me so happy to hear 🥰🥰
I love packing so much so this got me super excited to start traveling again! Great video 😁
Im preparing for a move to the Yucatan. Im so grateful for this video right now! And so happy & excited for you.
AH! Thank you for sharing. I was really hoping this video was coming our way LOL.
SO EXCITED FOR THIS!!
🥳🥳🥳
Love your packing videos, learnt so much from them and can’t wait to reduce our cases down as we have way too much! Definitely keeping the electric toothbrush too, enjoy Mexico!
So exciting!! I love your packing videos and re-watch them all the time 😍😍
Thanks 🥰🥰
Great video lovely Christie!!! ❤ Exicited to see your adventures in Mexico!!! 🇲🇽
Yes purito is amazing! Glad you went for that one!!!
I literally found you a couple years ago because your packing videos are the best style that I like out of any I’ve ever seen, so I was waiting for this 😂 I LOVE that you challenge yourself even during corona to move to Mexico! it’s at the top of my country list. Can’t wait for the videos to come 😊 also when you said “my friend Deanna” I was like oh hey someone else with my name 😂
Wow!!! You're living my dream. Great video. Plan on spending a period of time in Mexico next year. so keep posting please. Wish you all the best.
The Tupperware bags are such a great idea! I am going to live in Costa Rica for 10 weeks this winter to escape the gloom and these will definitely be added to my packing list!
I love the look of the zara tops! Im gonn ahave to look for that second-hand!
YAAASSS!!! You are my carry on only inspiration 🙌🏻
🥳🥳🥳
this is random but the first time i came across your channel was in February when i was in London and superr home sick and i've been watching you ever since. i love watching what you get up to on your travels and you have inspired me to one day start backpacking. i hope you're enjoying Mexico so far!
I feel so under prepared. I've lived on the road the past 3 and half years and I Gotta say you've covered every scenario. Enjoy the Move. look forward to seeing how you get on 👌
I want to move from the US to Norway, but since travel restrictions and all are in place, I’m just binge watching travel videos right now 😂😂
I’ve just packed a 28L backpack with the BARE minimum (clothes for 4-5 days, soap, etc) for when the travel restrictions are lifted.
Thanks for the inspiration, by the way, and have a safe trip to Mexico!
Edit: I’m using packing cubes and I’ve rolled all my shirts, leggings, and the two pair of shorts I’ve packed with the extra space dedicated to underwear, deodorant, and anything else I could fit. 10/10 would recommend!
are the zip pocket trousers A HINT?!
Clothes designers "take a hint take a hint lalalalalala" lol
36 mins basically means episode so I'm getting some tea haha. The tongue scraper is the best!!! being from an Indian background that's one of the things we use growing up... I've had a fair few of my friends baffled when I showed them! I watch all of your packing videos and every time I'm like how the hell does Christianne pack ALL OF THAT in such a small bag 😂😂
Made my day! Love watching your packing videos and well done moving with only a carry on! 🥳
Thanks lovely 🥰🥰
Really excited for you! Safe travels!! :)
Girl I literally missed you, I was in La veleta the day you arrived and left the next dayhaha, would’ve loved to meet you! Welcome to the Tuluminati life, you’re going to absolutely love it! Congrats!
Holy, you have really upped your game on skincare! I've been thinking about your small amount of skincare each time I've watched your packing videos and wondered how I'm supposed to pack so light, haha. Fun to see how your packing has changed over time :D
Haha yes! I can't believe it's taken me this long to actually use skincare products 😅
I can’t wait to see how things turn out in Mexico. Weekly vlogs to keep us informed and entertained would be awesome... BTW the bum bag is a very useful and I use it quite a bit for my drone
I love that the drone fits!! Deffo going to try and post weekly vlogs😊
I love how spontaneous you are! I wish I would be like that! Hope you have an amazing time Mexico 🇲🇽
Thanks! 🥰🥰
I’m gonna assume that there will be a video of you explaining how you moved from England to Mexico during these times so, I’ll just be patient and super excited for that video!!! 😜
Deffo! After I've settled in and able to answer more questions! I think I will do a live Q&A
If you want to go to Mexico, it’s not that hard as they haven’t locked their borders to air travel like other countries. You can’t go over the land borders (at least US) but you can fly in.
I am very happy that you visit my country. I am a fan of your channel.
so impressed to see how all the clothes did fit in the bags which did fit in (half) the backpack !
Best of luck!! I’m travelling to mexico soon. I think I’ll be bringing more stuff than that. Lol.
Ahhhh was so excited to see this pop-up in my notifications as I love all of your packing vids but didn't think you'd necessarily do one for moving to Mexico 😍 You've come a loooong way from the days of the 65 litre Berghaus/Osprey rucksacks stuffed full! 😂
Definitely come a long way!!
I have a whole set of the silicone Tupperware, it’s so handy. I also love the black pants with the zippy pockets!
I'm from Mexico. Maybe one day I can see you over here. Good luck!
Wish you all the best. Mexico is not the far from the Grand Canyon. Lots of good hiking there
Please try the ziplock bag for the towels and remove the air or a vaccum pack one.. I would have worn the strappy top going as a layering piece .. black tops are super useful and that top is tiny lol! the large items like snorkle and tupperware would be have been cheap enough to buy over there .. flat bags for make up and tolietries and bits can be stacked upright using the height of the bag so is easier for packing x
LOL you never know why you'd want something to be waterproof until you're REALLY glad that thing IS waterproof!
haha 4:37 watching it now and knowing why you're making that face about the trousers XD so excited for when i can get them!!!
I love how minimal you are
Christi I'm so excited for you and your new adventures in Mexico!! Good luck with it all!! (and restock the Solo black bum bag soon pls hehehe) :)) xxx
The filtering water bottle is a nice addition, the tap water is NOT DRINKABLE. We love it here in Tulum, we moved here back in August of this year. There are a lot of things you can do without breaking the bank. Hope you enjoy your time in Mexico 🇲🇽🎒🍌
I’m so excited for you❤️😍
Thank you 🥳🥳
Hi! I’m from Mexico 👋 hope you enjoy your time here! Will you stay in the south of the country? Since we’re getting close to winter you might need a light puffer jacket just in case, and if you go to the northern states you’ll definitely need warmer clothing. 😅 Also, your water bottle will be ESSENTIAL if you don’t want to continuously purchase plastic water bottles. Mexico is a beautiful country, even though we can get a lot of bad rep - but as anywhere else, as long as you don’t flash/show off expensive stuff while traveling places you should be ok 👌🏻 Stay healthy & fun travels!
You are amazing! Best of luck to you! I look forward to your videos. I'm sure Lia will really miss you though.
It is very normal that you only wear the glasses when you 'think' you need them at the beginning :D I used to do the same! Now I am so used to them, I will get a headache from eye strain if I don't wear them as soon as I get up in the morning. What you will also want very soon, especially in a warm country: sunglasses with a prescription. In case you know the exact prescription level, you can also order sunglasses with prescription online!
I already them I'm gonna need some prescription sunglasses 😅😅 it's so bright here ☀️ I hope to try and get some here!
Just ordered my first pair of prescription sunnies finally! Had to wait for optometrists to open again from lockdown. Can't wait
I am a season backpacker 130 countries. I only booked a flight to leave this week, been living at my mums last 2 years also lol. Your video pop popped up as recommended.
I’m so excited to be following you along this amazing move! You are so inspiring and adventurous I love it! Best of luck!
Ps. That filtered water bottle is going to be very practical because even in Mexico City the tap water is NOT drinkable, so good call! 👍🏼
Okay that's really good to know! I'm glad I brought it 😅❤️
Pr boil the water before drinking :)
I'm assuming those zip pocket trousers are a hint and I just want you to know you're a legend and I'm excited and I need them 😍
that perfect pause for the zipped pockets! I clapped
Ohhh how much i love your backpacking videos
Thank you 🥰🥰
Loved this so much, so helpful!!! Need to know where the black zippered pocket pants are from 😍
So in love with your backpack just bought one my self 😍
Hi mate!! I have some ideas for videos. 1- Feeling safe in Mexico. I find that every time I go to Mexico I have the best time and I feel very safe, however, the news and people in general say different things, they mention a lot about the cartels, about the how unsafe it is and about how really bad things happen there all the time, but as I said, I'm yet to see anything bad or to experience any sort of unsafe feeling. 2- I would also love to know how do you entertain yourself on the long flights. What is your experience like? what do you use to pass the time? you know, that sort of thing. I need to add that I love your content and obviously the way you are so raw and honest about travelling. Keep up the good work. BTW I left a Direct message on your Instagram just in case you care to read it. xx
Espero que tengas un buen viaje a Mexico💜
Gracias!
I'm so excited
🥳🥳🥳
You're making me jealous! i want to go on holiday so bad
I love you Channel, i am mexican and i had live in England as well so i can tell you that definetly you can buy similar toiletry things in Mexico City, also if you are looking for your diving shoes you can find cheap ones in decathlon Polanco in Mexico City. I hope you enjoy my country ! Good luck 🥰
I still can not believe you are moving to Mexico to live! All the best and with it all
Love all your videos! Can’t wait to start my own backpacking adventures with your advice and tricks. Could you possibly link the shoes and foldable backpack? Can’t find them anywhere! X
As a fellow global traveler who unfortunately has been grounded for a while 😫😫 I applaud your packing skills! Kudos 👏👏👏
When I saw you leaving with that bag in the last video I got so excited because I knew we'd get another 'packing my Global Companion' video 😂😍
It really is my global companion 😅
I also had to get glasses for distance in my later twenties. I'm convinced it is from heavy use of screens. Glasses life is a whole new thing. I always have to travel with things to clean the glasses too. It is crazy how dirty they get.
I just got my first glasses at 27 and I'm totally convinced it onset from being in quarantine for 6 months and only staring at my screen for 12 hours and day without looking away! So different to being in the office
wow, this was good timing to be on RUclips haha
So glad you were here for it 🤠
Christianne: I won't be moving around México
Christianne later: Driving through Mexico
You gotta drop where you got those trousers with zip pockets
Im impressed how much you Can fitt in your bag wow
Llegue a tu canal por este tipo de video! Me encanta 🌸
Hope your well and keeping safe will love to meet you same day from London x
We need a House Hunters International style ep for apartments!
I get those Tropicfeel ads about 100 times a day! Always tempted to get them 🤭
I know you're already there and it is bulky to pack but as someone who has broken 3 pairs of glasses in the 5 years I've worn them, I would HIGHLY recommend a hard case so you don't have to worry about popping a lense while you travel!
Pants with Zips, omg how did you not share this with me earlier, how did they go and if they were good where do I get me some, hope you had an awesome time xx
You’re the personification of optimism and inspiration’! Love your quirky left if center sensibilities. Can you talk about if you the airlines made you pay more fir your luggage due to weight? Also, do you have travel insurance (health and property)z? Stay safe. Looking forward to vids of your adventures!
This made me realize I need to get tf out of this place 😂
i admire your life so much ugh
Hi.i love everything you do.Takecare always wherever you go.
I see, you are british and moving to México. I am the other way around, mexican and living in the UK. I wish you good luck in your journey.
Do you happen to have links for your packing cubes? I’m considering getting some as I’m a serial over-packer so hoping it could help! 😂
I would move anywhere but have just limited money cannot find a job especislly after virus in UK ...the max they give me on visas is 3 months except India .. great to hear you are getting there and also just use a cheap carry on. Until I go am learning turkish and have gone back to beginning with spanish on free app ... just fun way to learn ..you are a great inspiration and watch all your travels ..spent 7 months last year away ..budgeted in hostels and have enough for 1 more big trip ... you only get 1 life ! my tip to budget ..just get lager and cut out the cocktails saves so much ...
legit was just thinking "so when is she gonna show us what she packed?" 😌🤷🏼♀️
Also so excited for you, good luck w everything!!💖
Haha today is that day 😅😅
@@BackpackingBananas 🥳😌💖
Hey 👋. What are you doing about travel insurance rn with Mexico being on the 'no fly' list? We're supposed to be going to stay with our family in cdmx for Xmas 😭
I’m so excited for u
I want to move abroad when I’m an adult.
🥳🥳🥳
Why do I like watching your videos so much? 🤩
The only way to travel. Good luck 😊
how did you charge your toothbrush in Mexico, it seemed to have a razor plug, are they easy to find there or you had an adapter?
would be really great to see a recap re the items, would you bring different things if you could go back?
so many questions about your move! I finished uni this year with big travel plans that have been put on hold thanks to covid. I see you have moved to Mexico and now im asking myself why am i not doing this?
Christ alive i am so jealous!! Fingers crossed in a years time this will be me
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Same girl same
How awesome! What state in Mexico are you moving to? Some places can get very cold as its about to be winter!
Ok I need! Those black trousers
I have the same sparkely gold glascase and i do understand you! Its so ugly but at the same time you kind of like it...
Also, if its time tsame that i have the siliconbags do leak if you put sopp or overnight oths :(
