One Bag Travel Essentials You Need For Every Trip

[@rgpfighter]

A reusable laundry bag and a shawl are a must for me now! If I don't get a chance to do my laundry or if things don't dry, it's a much needed way to separate the good and bad clothes. It can also double as a carry bag for any quick pickups where they don't provide plastic or other bags (groceries, etc.) depending on its size. Some airlines take away or don't provide a blanket before landing and some of them are rough on my skin. Having my own shawl gives me piece of mind and comfort allowing me to take an undisturbed nap during my travel. This helps for long layovers as well!

To save space in your liquids bag, take solid shampoo and conditioner. I also like to “live” out of my travel toiletry containers before the trip, for the same amount of time I’ll be traveling, to check how much of each item I’ll really use.

[@PackHacker]

Good call, Anna! 😃 -Eric

[@FastFredTravels]

I have experimented with the solid shampoo and conditioner bars. Largely with mixed results. Which ones work well in your experience?

[@peterbreis5407]

Very important to have the soap and shampoo when you have to wash in that stream or from the contents of your water bottle.

[@santanalaforgue9154]

@@FastFredTravels I have been using solid products for more than a decade now, not only when I travel but on a daily basis. My go-to brand for shampoo, conditionner, deodorant, face wash (I have sensitive skin) is Lamazuna. I've tried their soap and make-up remover and was very pleased, yet not enough to switch. A friend of mine has been using a Pachamamaï shampoo for some time now. If I remember correctly, the youtuber Gittemary Johansen did a video on solid hair product. If I'm mistaken, several no/low waste channels did cover that subjet in the recent years.

[@VioletBlueism]

A couple things I don't often see mentioned, that are absolute ESSENTIALS for me: 1. Earplugs. Sometimes you don't want to listen to anything, including podcasts, music, crying babies, gossiping aunties, street traffic from the poorly insulated window, etc. I bought some Mack's branded ones at HEB and they're a total lifesaver. Also came with a little carrying pill. 2. Low profile earbuds/headphones. This might be more niche to me (I have small ears) but in many countries, Southeast Asia, Latin America, you might find yourself wearing a lot of helmets. The wrong earbuds make my ears ache in minutes. I have these Bluetooth neckband style LG HBS-XL7. Love them. Also, bonus, since they fit IN my ear and not ON they also do a good job of cancelling noise even when off.

[@wendymason6477]

Hearos are good earplugs btw

Nice video. I tried the charging cables with adaptors for different ports. They are very, very slow. Not good for scenarios where a quick charge is desired, yet ok if you've overnight. For a quick charge, a dedicated cable is better, imho.

[@bangalorebobbel]

Having packing cubes or alternatives in order to organise the pack is definitely a must. Meanwhile I found it useful to have also some hard shell containers instead of using exclusively soft packing cubes for items such as chargers or usb sticks etc., since the pins of the chargers or similar parts might break and/or damage other items in the bag during travel. Found these protecting covers for hard drives (external hard drive cases resp. caddies for 2,5" drives) are simply the best for me for such purposes. Damn cheap and light weight and they keep forever. Instead of using soft packing cubes it might also make sense to use as an alternative one of these foldable backbacks of daypack size. In that way you can organise your stuff during travel and you have always an (additional) daypack with you at your destination. I can recommend the ones from Matador or other high end brands as well as cheaper ones (like e.g. from Decathlon) for such purposes, they all might do the job. I prefer the matadors since when not used as backpack I can roll-close them further as usual, means their size is nicely adjustable (what doesn't work so fine with a rucksack with other closing principles like e.g. a zip). Concerning refillable hydration containers, I do not use rollable/collapsible water containers other than the ones I need for my water filtration system (sawyer). Doesn't make much sense for me to shrink bottles when empty if I still have to keep the space in the pack for when they are filled, and usually these rollable/foldable/collapsible thingies also don't keep for so long. Most of them seem to be made for cold water only, same as many soft drink bottles they are not really useable as bed bottles (filled with boiling hot water) but might even get damaged by hot water or if you kick them with your feet. And of course you cannot put them on a flame for boiling the water ... Stainless steel bottles or those made from titanium work not only as hydration containers but can also be used for other purposes such as being a rolling pin e.g. for preparing some pan bread/chappaties, or work as improvised iron (filled with hot water and rolled over your stuff the wrinkles are gone).

[@peterbreis5407]

Which covers do you recommend for your router and 32" Curved Gaming Display?

[@bangalorebobbel]

@@peterbreis5407 Don't have such things but I guess that stuff would exceed by far any one bag travel limits by dimensions and weight. That said, I would not urgently recommend one of these many monitor carrying cases from Samsonite, Jelco, Pelican and so on (even though they all might be great, of course). I would simply do what all my gamer friends do: they transport such stuff always in the sales packaging as these packagings are designed to protect everything inside from whatever handling even through UPS, Fedex and so on. And then they tetris everything in any nice massive trolley (that's why one of my friend's nickname is Rimowa, I guess he spends more on his luggage than on his gaming devices ...). But beware: if you travel with such equipment (and luggage) to any foreign country outside of your own customs union area, take your bills with you for the return and never forget to do customs clearance at the destination. Usually you might have to fill out a form that declares all that stuff as personal items which are taken with you back home when you leave the country. Else it could be a very, very costly experience to simply take everything through the green channel ...

3:07 brought up a really interesting topic. Lately I've been struggling with keeping clothes wrinkle free when traveling. I see this and instantly think "there's no way that's not going to be wrinkled by the time it's needed to wear". I think a video covering this topic would be really helpful, if you could. Thanks

[@zBMatt]

Travel with synthetics. They keep you odor free and don’t wrinkle.

Also hang your shirts up as soon as you get to your hotel/Airbnb. Bonus: hang them in the bathroom while you take a hot shower, and it kind of acts like a steamer.

[@nuvoclassic]

I always carry: lightweight scarf (in summer) or warm shawl (in winter). Fanny pack/bum bag [for rescue inhaler and essentials like nail file, ChapStick, tissue, pain meds, ear plugs] - I even wear it in the house. I always wear a bandana tied on wrist or bag handle. I always clip a packable tote bag to suitcase handle - used as tote bag and laundry bag on road trips. My collapsible water bottle is always clipped to carabiner. Does not have weird taste - but sort of floppy when trying to stand up full of water.. Recently I've been snapping a neck pillow on handle of suitcase. On my last trip I tried an experiment of wearing my PJs instead of packing them - saved LOTS of space - and looked presentable, enough to go out for lunch with a friend!

[@cnharitos]

Aside from the standard battery banks and wireless headphones, a travel accessory that I think is a must is a microfiber towel. Ypuohoria size L is an amazing product, and I think it comes with a baby option perfect for drying your hands or forehead when it's hot.

For the ladies… the Kipling card wallets are low profile too. Good quality and great prices… especially at their outlet stores. I have a 6 card holder with a little leash and a clip at the end to attach to a pant belt loop…it fits in a back pocket or leash inside your purse. It would be nice to see some more female specific goodies and tech too. I have seen a few vids about female packing lists… would love more content on female specific packs and other items like some nice travel perfumes or soap bars? Lush “honey I washed my hair” is very good for the allergy sufferers cuz it’s a mild scent imho.

[@bellaluce7088]

@Wendy Mason - Yes, Kipling has some great stuff (unisex too), and I like that they include dimensions and weights. I always take off the little gorilla fob they include, and the ring that's left is great for attaching to o-ring systems in bags. I love using their Creativity pouch in large (7.25" x 4.25") as my wallet when not traveling, but will check out the smaller one you mention. Thanks!

[@bellaluce7088]

Diva cup and washable pads are great for minimalist travel. A glam hack I like is to keep an ultralight coin purse in my day bag with the following so I don't have to go back to lodgings if I end up going somewhere a little fancy at night: "statement" (larger/fancier) earrings and/or a lightweight necklace; hair pins or barrette/elastic; plus eyeliner and lip liner, which I use with my regular lip balm instead of lipsticks to save space. Sometimes I also put in an ultra-light gossamer scarf that folds down to almost nothing. Total Weight including coin purse and scarf is often *under* 3 ounces, and fits in the palm of my hand. Other style hacks: necklace chain with interchangeable pendants; reversible skirts and sweaters; rolling skirts up at the waist to change length; wearing v-neck sweaters back to front; and using multiple ultralight scarves to visually change the look of a capsule wardrobe in almost no space (ties do the same for men). Even in freezing temperatures, I like to use at least a few colorful ultralight scarves (even summer weight) for visual variety when indoors, either layering them under a toasty outerwear scarf or swapping once inside. Much better for temperature regulation too. Adventures with Sarah has some great tips on packing an ultralight yet elegant wardrobe (I liked the one on packing with style with Eileen Fisher, but the concepts apply to any brand of clothes). She introduced me to the concept of weighing every article of clothing and packing what's lightest. Also On Gossamer and Fruit of the Loom ultralight undies. Would love to hear others' hacks for bringing a little style and glam to ultralight travel! : - )

[@theresabu3000]

I use a small wallet - Plain wallet from Tatonka for years. Similar in dimensions to the fjallräven in the video and also with a zip. But has 3 open slots for up to 15 cards. A small zip for coins - only drawback is you have to fold larger money. Some more women specific gear would be cool - but I personally like outdoor clothes that are more unisex (with big pockets).

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

I travel quite a bit and always check a bag -- my carry-on isn't large either. The worst problem I see with "only carry-on" travelers is they STUFF two bags (a carry-on and a "personal item") and take up SO much of the space on the plane. I sometimes have a difficult time finding overhead space for my very reasonable-sized backpack since I don't always want to shove it under the seat on the dirty floor (BTW, after a recent trip I soaked my backpack in OxiClean and the black water that came off of it was shocking!!!). Most airlines do not stick to the carry-on regulations and last week at JFK (on the way to PDX) I saw several fellow travelers with GIANT rolling carry-ons and a personal item pretty much the same size strapped to the top.

[@sophiagray3191]

Direct result of airlines overcharging, damaging and losing luggage in my opinion. Some people will also take it as far as they can. I never take more than my reasonably sized backpack that takes up one spot in the overhead compartment.

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

@@sophiagray3191 you are 110% correct. Also, might I add, that people seem to be in the "it's my vacation and I want to get the most out of it no matter what" mode so they don't think about how their actions can affect others. Sure, you MAY be able to get "on the ground" faster if you don't check a bag, but I RARELY have to wait long for my bags to make it out of the carousel and when I travel internationally the customs and passport control time makes sure that my bags are basically waiting for me when I get to the baggage claim.

[@beekeeper63]

Every time my wife and I travel we comment that we wish the airlines would enforce the baggage rules. It's ridiculous what people bring onto the plane. No consideration of others.

[@bellaluce7088]

@@sophiagray3191 I agree with you that it's largely an airline-created issue. If my luggage hadn't been lost twice--once with great inconvenience--I'm not sure I would have become such a convert to carry-on only. But I'm glad I did! I find traveling light more pleasant for every part of the journey, not just the flight. And one perk of using a small soft-sided backpack is that I can usually cram it in to the spaces leftover by space-hogging over-sized hard-shell cases. Having a separate personal item to keep my ear plugs, water bottle, sweater, etc. handy in flight is a must.

[@bellaluce7088]

@@SherryAnnOfTheWest I can relate to the germ aversion. I wonder if you could find an ultralight nylon bag to slip your backpack into if you have to stow it under a seat, then reverse the bag when done and fold it away for use as a laundry bag or something.

[@Dracomies]

Since these packable jackets are in the more 'expensive range' (ie both are $329), one recommendation alongside with those is the Arcteryx LT Hoody. Less expensive (but actually more premium), also packable, versatile in warmth and more attractive looking and sleek. You won't look like a walking garbage bag(Patagonia Micropuffs never look good imho). Imo it's about the same or less in price but a better jacket than those types of jackets. For the triple USB cable -- since the one listed isn't available (the yellow one) -- you can get the Anker Anker Powerline II 3-in-1 Cable.

Also instead of a collapsable water bottle, just use the plastic bottle that you will inevitably have to buy from a store eventually. It’s durable, cheap, and it packs small. It’s the best form of recycling.

Sim tool! :D

Has anyone ever tried taking a walking stick on a plane, or would that be something they'd make you check if it wasn't collapsible?

[@rashnamohamed1009]

TSA and Canadian airport security do not allow trekking poles unless you're using them in place of a cane like for mobility issues. I don't know if it matters if they're collapsible or not.

[@melw3518]

if it's a cane (for mobility issues) then you can take it on board but if it's a walking stick/poles for trekking then they must be checked.

[@mdubb4855]

Definitely not a Cold Steel cane.

[@mdubb4855]

@@rashnamohamed1009 it gets a little complicated because some of us have traditional looking, but collapsible, canes from trekking pole companies. With those it might come down to whether the carbide tip has been replaced with the accessory standard rubber cane tip.

Whats the bag at 1:05 ??

Hey friends, I have tried to use the Packhacker codes with backcountry on three separate occasions now (always for full-priced items) and each time I get an alert that the code cannot be applied and to contact a gearhead. I do so and they say that the code cannot be used but have yet to give any details when I ask if it is about the code or the items in my cart. The guy I just talked to said its probably just an issue with the code and offered a partial discount (10%). I hope you are being compensated based on clicks or attempts, not successful orders if they aren't honoring the code! I first tried with the code you shares last spring and then once this summer and have yet to complete an order with a code (or without, either, I guess).

Good video again. Just one thing: could you please use measurements in both freedom-units and metric? I am sure you have a lot of viewers from other parts of the world who would also appreciate it
