I spent 5 weeks down under with only a 38 litre bag for all my stuff.

I packed a little more than three changes of clothes, as well as a camera and a few print books.

The entire experience was so freeing, being able to pack up out of a hostel and know I had all my stuff with me, and have it light and movable enough to climb mountains and traverse the city was great.

I brought detergent to wash my clothes in the sink, and a clothesline as well.

This went about as smoothly as I had hoped, but there are a few things I wish I didn’t bring/do.

I brought a tote bag, but I wish I would have brought a packable backpack, and I would have swapped a print book for a kindle.

Def would have brought one less tshirt, and stuck to my two long sleeves.

I will be buying a soap container and an airmattress next time, I hsve one that packs into a pop can size.

Overall I learned a lot and because it was a solo trip, became a lot closer with myself.

Did i just find a new release by accident?

Was thinking about getting the t66 liteway for a trip to japan but liked the look of the original t67 more, so i checked new arrivals and found this.

What are your thoughts?

Hey everyone,
I do a lot of short business trips (1–4 days) by train and plane. I'm tired of carrying a laptop backpack plus a rolling suitcase and want to consolidate into one bag.

It should fit under an easyJet seat (~45 x 36 x 20 cm)
Externally accessible laptop compartment (no digging through clothes)
Durable and water-resistant
Should also hold business casual clothes for a few days, chargers, and toiletries. Clamshell opening and a water bottle pocket would be nice.

One more thing: once I'm at the hotel, the bag becomes my daily commute bag – I take it to business meetings with just laptop, notebook, chargers etc., no clothes.

So far I've looked at
- fjällräven färden carry on 30
- B|Y expendable backpack
- tomtoc t66 28L
- samsonite outtrax
- osprey day lite 26+6

The osprey I did not really like from the look, even though this is often recommended.

What do you guys think?
Anything else to look into?

Best regards

Going full one-bag starting January. Read plenty of packing lists and gear reviews but nobody talks about what actually wears out over 12 months. For anyone who's done 6+ months this way, what needed replacing first, the bag, zippers, straps, cubes?

Going to Indonesia in a couple of weeks and need suggestions for pants. Hot and humid with some water resistance and ideally offers some big protection! I have some shorts for beach days but will need something for the days in the national forest, specifically North Sulawesi.

Hi all!

This is my first post here but I’ve been reading this thread for sometime. I have a trip coming up in February to Puerto Rico for 7 days with friends & family. Although this isn’t my first time traveling with just “one bag” I want to be strategic about it and need help with a packing list.

I’m a bit at a loss for exactly what to bring to Puerto Rico because of the excursions, beach time, and other activities we might be doing. If anyone has any recs for clothes or other important items to bring please let me know! I have different bags/back packs for the trip so depending on what I bring I have different sizes for carry on that still fit Deltas size, so bag recs not needed.

Female, 30.
Activities like the beach, walking tourist destinations, boat sail, going out to eat/night life maybe 2-3 times.
Staying at an airbnb I believe has access to washer & dryer too.

Just got this bag for a weekend trip. It seems like the laptop compartment doesn't completely close, but leaves a small gap. Normal for this bag? Pictures show from outside and inside.
