Two months in America with a 20L Kånken Backpack | What's in my travel bag? | Minimalist Packing

[@bevinmadden7072]

Most travelers seem to only pack black clothes so I love how colorful your clothes were! especially that embroidered yellow dress

[@TarynEverdeen]

Colourful clothes are a big part of my style, so I would be very sad if I could only wear black for two months :(( I was so relieved to find a way I could take my style with me!!!

[@sophiapaul1126]

I’m so

[@autumnrose_tv]

This is the most informative video I’ve seen so far, and I’m glad I got to see how much the 17” kanken can fit in as a travel bag before purchasing

[@activatedadventures]

Love how bright and vibrant your wardrobe is. Yay for color! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@candicewaller403]

Lovely packing video! I watch quite a lot of minimalist packing content on here, and yours is by FAR the most colorful. Love the dresses and dungarees formula. I've made a note to focus on a few favorite pieces to re-wear over and over. It's a great strategy! Also, I love that you've made an effort to have reusable items, handkerchief, menstrual cup, etc. It makes a big difference. I've never traveled with such little amount of underwear (I'd usually bring 5 for that length of trip), but that's just because I don't want to have to sink wash them EVERY night. It can be done, but it's one of those things that's a trade-off.

What our different regions call items is always amuzing. Jumper vs sweater. Boot vs trunk. But swim “costume” sounded odd to me until I really broke down us calling it a swimsuit. Suit? Like really? WTF. 🤣🤣🤣. Amazing packing of such a small bag. Especially considering you took paper books.

[@lana.9073]

I love watching this to improve my English listening skills. Great energy, colours, minimalism (at its best) & British English, couldn't have asked for more 🥰🙏

[@TarynEverdeen]

this is so sweet!!! what's your native language?

[@sd-kt9bw]

this is the only useful vid I have seen on my minimal packing search. really great!!

[@TarynEverdeen]

Ahhh, I'm so glad this was helpful!! Let me know if you have any questions :))

[@funnypeopleswim]

I appreciate how colourful everything was.

[@rkeffer4589]

This is an old video, but this was very helpful. I was trying to see if I could use a 20l Kanken as a weekend bag, this video makes it clear that the answer is a resounding yes! 😂

[@elaine8651]

the blue docs with the rainbow laces?? yes please! thanks for this video; everything about you is so calming and nice- very helpful!

[@maulidahanafy2487]

I love your dress. Great cinematography!

[@TarynEverdeen]

Thanks so much !

[@josephchreim1185]

I love your attitude, style and general aura! Great video too! (Shared account with my husband 😉)

[@AnnieGill7]

Great job!! Very impressive young lady!

[@suzanneanderson582]

Loved your video - great tips for minimalism. Thank you!

[@antheme_chat]

Thank you for that instructive video :) I'll take notes to start traveling someday, maybe we'll cross our path by chance. Also, you remind me of someone that has the same stuff and wears the same dungarees as you, but she travels with a baby guitar to sing her songs. She's an awesome friend and I think you two would get along so well. Greetings from france ! xo

[@terrybyte8328]

That is organised beyond belief!!!

[@TarynEverdeen]

hahaha thank you !! ;)

[@pan0ptica]

Wow, a couple years ago I traveled to Egypt with just a cheapo backpack to get a diving license and of course to relax and sunbath. Different backpack, but the Kanken looks super with it opening just like a suitcase.

[@lupa5817]

Love this video ! i was wondering, you didn't bring any towel ? Or flipflops ?

[@franpolyphemus4496]

I love the clothes you brought! Would like to see a lookbook of your outfits.

[@s.k.6899]

Amazing what you could fit into this bag, and it's the first video I encountered where someone took a DSLR with them. Can you please share the name and a link to the exact model of the bag? I wanna buy the one you used, but the many similar backpack models are so confusing!

[@sassycat1825]

Hey, I love such content and am wondering if you could show us something similar again some time. ☺ Where did you buy your bumbag from?

[@monicasahu07]

Your Hair 😍 and loved the cool colorful Outfits too.

[@TarynEverdeen]

Ahhh thank you so much

[@Aphraofficial]

you missed such a great rhyme - "you never know when you might need to sow" ahaha but also I love ur youtube vids x

[@TarynEverdeen]

oh MAN i'm so sorry to disappoint !!!

[@tijay8507]

It is sew not sow lol!

My biggest problem with travelling with menstrual cup (for more than a cycle) is the challenge of sanitising it between cycles. I usually boil mine after washing, but I think that some people might be squicked out if I was to boil it in a pot in a communal kitchen or similar... How did you deal with sanitising yours on this trip?

[@TarynEverdeen]

ahhh yep this is a bit tricky - I think I put mine in a mug of water and put it in the microwave for 6 mins, but another way to do it could be to bring along / buy some hydrogen peroxide, make up the solution and leave ur cup overnight in a jam jar or similar filled with it

[@laulutar]

@@TarynEverdeen I don't have any great ideas, but I'll try and remember to share, if I come up with a genius plan 😄

[@TarynEverdeen]

Hello! I was doing some research on this and found the Emanui, which might be the solution we were looking for: emanui.com/ Hope this helps

[@caecal2012]

I know people who use a pacifier style steam sterilizer

[@jessicaandersson4313]

Many don't boil theirs cause it could damage the material. An alternstive is using sterilising tablets. Can't add a link cause my comment will get deleted, but you can find for instance Milton sterilisng tablets at Boots

[@Fernando-zh8vl]

Great video!!

[@udayshome1793]

Neat and compact, nice. Assuming this allows you to traveling with carry-on only, how did you get a sewing kit & nail clippers through security? I'd also suggest adding a basic med-kit in your bag.

[@qiuhongyu1274]

nail clippers are always okay

[@lolosrainydays]

I travel through Europe with a razer, fold up scissors, tweezers, sewing kit, all in a carry on.

[@ndubstar]

I like your dresses. Cute style.

[@gabbym333]

Hey I was born in Albuquerque! That's pretty cool that you were there. Thanks for the video.

[@TarynEverdeen]

Oh wow !!!! I have a biggggg love for Albuquerque, it's so beautiful and the people I met were super friendly

[@hugoingelhammar6163]

I have a feeling you like colors

[@darklittlepeople]

brilliant !

[@chriswilcocks8485]

Did you say how much your bag weighed or did I miss it

[@0mfgeeze]

Can you link where you purchased the rucksack rain c9ver?

[@lifeofdanni8711]

Taryn you're incredible oh my x

[@TarynEverdeen]

Danni you are a shining star

[@fancyfox9148]

How much did it weight?

[@kevinb.7234]

Hi can i ask? Im planning to buy the 20L one can it fit 8 books and 8 notebooks plus supplies??

[@akirebd2062]

It depends on the size of the books, I used it for school but sometimes it was really hard to fit all the books because the backpack has his proper form and a book doesn't fit in a strange position 😅 I hope I have been helpful even though my English was not very good✌️

[@estelanavalenzuela311]

You should check out pacsafe or nordace backpacks

[@pogoarora7202]

Love your clothes, don't they get super wrinkled?

[@Rjimr]

Hi. What color is the backpack??

[@autumnrose_tv]

I’m pretty sure it’s deep blue

[@nightingalea.6733]

Wait you went on a two month trip with only 2 underwears?

[@LisaR2392]

My EXACT THOUGHTS! I bring AT LEAST 10 extra than what I will need daily! I cannot wear dirty underwear! 🤢🤮🤮🤮

[@LisaR2392]

TWO pair of underwear??!! 😳😳

[@BoStark]

It's not Känken, it's Kånken.

[@maximilian9295]

People travel the U.S? What for? I've never heard of that.

[@TarynEverdeen]

it's wild right

[@julietide2253]

Many states are v diverse and the size of European countries, come on.
