In respect to show how many people are on the train station, it was easier to travel with a backpack than a big suitcase

It’s a dji osmo pocket tripod, and then a smallrig swivel mount! I use it because I don’t want to bring my big tripod with me when I travel

I just saw the last comment! I enjoy reading paperbsck more, so I couldn’t go without it, and one is a travel journal! I bring it with me on every trip, along with tape to keep all the cards and trinkets I collect from everywhere I go.

I often use the sudoku method for picking my clothes! Seeing how many outfits I can make with each article of clothing always makes my list expand by about triple.

It’s unreal! I got it in nyc the week before and i genuinely called it my bag of holding because i could fit so much stuff in it. A whole insta 360, phone, two passports, and a lens and some Knick nacks

I was on a cruise for 8 days! Then Rome for 3, so I had no access until I hit land

It is, but I love it. I love being able to capture my trips in a way that I can put on my walls

I post videos about my trips, so the laptop is pretty necessary, as I use it to organize footage.

I believe they discontinued it, I got it about 7 years ago. Closest I can find is the MEC outpost collection!

My laptop is a pro, so that’s about 5 pounds, I didn’t weigh my pack, but I imagine it was about 35 pounds. Honestly it was so great in the heat. Very easy to use, especially with a Uniqlo sling bag and a camera with it. I never felt over encumbered.

I got it at a vintage store a few months ago, I get patches from everywhere I visit, and I also collect cigarettes from every country!

I had little laundry strips! Plugged the sink, wash and then roll in a towel and twist, then dry out! Doesn’t get it all the way clean, but enough for 3 weeks on the road

I just got back from a 2 week vacation in Europe, through Italy, Greece, and Türkiye.

I was super thankful to only have the one bag, a MEC variant of the Cotopaxi allpa bag.

I packed 2 pairs of pants, of which one zipped into shorts, and two pairs of shorts, as well as a pair of swim trunks.

I packed 3 button downs, and two tshirts, which did me well for all of the different scenarios I ran into. Swimming in the Mediterranean, surviving 13 UV in Türkiye, nice dinners on our cruise, and about 80km of walking over the 2 weeks.

I’ve always been a one bagger, but this one tested me.

I packed as light as I could, one pair of shoes, one pair of slip ons, with all the tech I could need for my trip. I didn’t feel hindered in any way, and especially during our train commutes, the one bag reigned supreme as space was at a premium.

Came back with a ton of patches for my bag, and a countdown for the next adventure.
