What's in My Backpack for South America // ALL-SEASONS in 36L Osprey

Pack with me for a new backpacking trip in South America! My plan for this trip is to hit up Bolvia, Peru and Ecuador over 3.5 months and I am packing everything into 36L which is a HUGE challenge, given the variety in temperatures and climates across that region of the world.

ABOUT ME🙋🏻‍♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these KZbin videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel!
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

I was watching your packing videos 3 years ago as I prepared to travel South America. Here I am now having lived in Bolivia for 1.5 years. I fell in love. Thank you for your helpful packing videos. I was incredibly prepared and used everything I traveled with. Enjoy the magic of Bolivia! She’s a hidden gem.

Okay but seeing the airport fit at the end is somehow so comforting to see. I don't know why but I get so self conscious when I think I look a bit odd wearing my mismatched clothes to travel. Remembering that sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to take everything you want with you is really helpful. I am in my early planning for a solo summer trip to Europe and I am hoping to do it all with just a backpack so I have been binge watching and rewatching all your videos. Thanks for always going so in depth with what you pack!

I have one just like this from 2008 and really like it! I’ve had it for 14 years but haven’t used it for a longer backpacking adventure. I must say it was nicer to have in the airport and then backpacking through Panama.

KZbin recommended me your video and it was a nice surprise to see a familiar face! I used to watch your videos years ago when I was into travel. I have the same backpack and I love it! I've used it for years on multiple long trips and even just for weekends or camping and it's still as new. The wheels are so strong I think I never used the straps but it's nice to know you can use them if you need them.

I'm only a few minutes in but I'm glad I found this video... most 'carry on bag' videos cater to urban travelers and/or travelers who stick to warmer climates. I'm about to go on a massive trip that will traverse a variety of geographies and seasons, from the desert heat to the jungle heat to the European winter. Trying my best to figure out my pack!

I've got an old Kelty carry-on backpack with wheels and a handle. It's called a Pangaea. It's built like a tank and unfortunately weighs 3 kg partly due to a beefy metal frame. I still love it. Have a great trip!

Also nice to get the farpoint 15L daypack which can attach to your bag.

i discovered bungee cords a few years ago...so many uses ! my top hack for sure. holds doors and windows open, laundry line, hang your backapck, make a curtain in a dorm bed., 2-2 foot bungees have been so useful , highly recommend them .

[@Ultraw]

just came back from backpacking for the first time, thanks to this channel for the inspiration! and I also had a backpack with wheels which worked brilliantly 😄

[@Merryyy203]

I love how you are "only" taking 36 L. I've seen people take almost double that for the same amount of time (or even less). I think I could go with even a bit less, for example the tops. Since they have no sleeves, you could wear them several times before washing them. You can also wash them by hand and if it is hot around there, they'll probably be dry the next day. Of course the hiking equipment and the big fluffy towel take up a bit of space. Some of the toiletries you could maybe do without but it is of course a personal choice. Good video :) Hope you had a great time

[@dkwillrn]

Both eagle creek and high Sierra have similar styles of case. Though they have their advantages, eagle creek has a removable frame and gives you more options. The disadvantage of the "T" handle is you cannot slip another bag over the handle. I have in the past had a large strap that I use as a caring strap (duffle style) that I use with my rolling case. The best decision you can make is what type of travel you're taking and choose accordingly. Besides, the more bags you have to choose from the better!

[@odtquiroz3031]

Really? I’ve been looking for this kind of backpacks and can’t find a proper one! Could you please give the models of high sierra and eagle creek?

Just saw this and I was like I have to tell you when you get to Australia to see family, check out the High Sierra brand. It’s an Aussie company, amazing backpack/roller case. I love mine super robust and durable, the backpack straps pack away into a zipped area when not in use, there is a seperate area for shoes and it opens up like a suitcase like your previous bag. I swear by these bags they are the best. I used mine in South America travelling through Patagonia, Chile, Argentina lots of hiking and it was so good 😊 they usually have them on sale too…. Maybe your sister could pick once up on Black Friday for and early Chrissy pressie hehe

[@lllbbb1231]

Have you reported back on how this bag goes to travel with? Very keen to hear you're thoughts! ☺️

[@sbkpilot1]

I had one of these packs, called the Osprey Soujourn, I don't think they make it anymore. The issue is that due to the wheels and frame it feels really uncomfortable to wear it. So these types of packs are mainly meant for rolling and the occasional backpack use. My experience has been very different from yours, even in Europe i've felt that having a backpack is immensely more beneficial - your hands are totally free, you don't have to worry about dragging stuff and watching it when you use kiosks etc. and you can run up the stairs to catch a connecting train with ease. I absolutely detest rolling luggage for that reason. But to each their own :)

[@holliejane3605]

We’re in Thailand in feb! Mini backpacking though as it’s just 3 weeks😂

I just use produce bags instead of packing cubes. They can be reused too.

interested to hear if they do weigh your bag and how much you need to pay! I am looking at a 7KG limit which is a bit worrying especially considering any decent bag seems to be at least 1kg... i wouldnt mind paying a bit extra if thats allowed.
