Back

Hi, what are you using for travelling back packs rather than using a suitcase.

Hi, what are you using for travelling back packs rather than using a suitcase. After some recommendations on what works well, eg what brands, size, functionality and material especially. We are heading for 3 weeks this time and moving reasonably often between places which is why a back pack would be more ideal than a small suitcase. Looking to do 3 months in 2-3 years time through South East Asia so have that in mind when buying. I don’t think I would need much more size with how easy it is to buy clothes and have laundry done while away, but would like to factor that into your thoughts from people who have done it before.Thanks in advance— với Samantha Bailey.

    My only thought for you is that 99% of people pack way too much stuff. We can tour for a month with just a normal backpack, with a laptop 2 pairs of shoes. When I first started traveling around the world I always came home and realized I didn’t use 75% of what I brought

    Farpoint 55 Travel Pack – Men’s. A true backpack with a mesh back to keep you cool. The day pack comes off and the 2 become your carry on and personal bag. I’ve had it for 8 years

    We have the Osprey Farpoint 40, even the kids have them. They have hip straps and chest straps, making them very stable.

    I used this to travel from the US to Thailand to Hanoi, phong nha, and hoi an. I definitely recommend it over a rolling suitcase. The streets are too uneven for that. A backpack was perfect!
