WHAT TO PACK FOR LONG TERM TRAVEL IN 2023 (CARRY-ON ONLY) - Must Have Items + Tutorial and Tips

[@quirkyblackenby]

I love watching people that pack normal clothes to travel like it makes complete sense to pack jean shorts if you like wearing jean shorts.

[@KeithandDev]

We totally agree! You want to be comfortable and feel like yourself wherever you are in the world :)

[@ioannescianus1831]

This is hands-down the most well-made "what to pack" video that Ive ever watched. The transitions are literally chef's kiss!!

[@KeithandDev]

Aww thank you so much, that really means a lot to us!

[@rebeccasather]

The transitions between clothing items were so fun! Love this :)

[@KeithandDev]

Thanks so much Rebecca, that so kind of you :)

[@Insomnias_Kryptonite]

The editing on the jumps between outfits was really well done

[@KeithandDev]

Thank you so much! We really appreciate it! :)

[@ryanhobbs3362]

editing cool, but that music constantly bouncing from side to side in my headphones drove me bonkers. Had to stop the video part way.

[@LibbyWithnall]

Definitely one of the best and most informative packing videos I've ever seen. While I'm not going to be traveling this way I still picked up a few helpful hints from you. And I have to say that I appreciate all the work and effort that went into this video. I'm very impressed.

[@KeithandDev]

Wow Libby thank you so much. We really appreciate your kind words, it means a lot ♥️ we are very happy that you were able to take some tips away from the video 😊

[@catherinesimard1058]

You guys are so organized!! Incredible that you can fit all of this in your backpacks!!

[@KeithandDev]

Thanks Catou! it def took lots of planning to get it all in 😂but it all fits quite well :)

[@itss_nattyj]

The tiny cases of laundry detergent and shampoo is genius! I’ve never seen those before. Will definitely add those to my list.

[@KeithandDev]

It’s so nice! The laundry detergent works really and it’s so nice not having to worry about liquids spilling in your bag :)

@@KeithandDevCan I also use it to wash clothes in the sink or is it only suitable for washing machines?

@@KeithandDev You should haha I need classes

[@wilsonlamlyt7138]

@@KeithandDev May I ask considering the bag itself? Do you actually need to expand the bag from 35 to 45 liters when you carry all that stuff in the bag? Or in most cases just 35 is enough. I'm thinking the size of my bag and this video can give me an approximate amount of stuff that can be fitted in. Thanks!

[@123SeaWolf]

I've been watching tons of travel packing videos. Yours is the best. I stopped the video several times to add to my list! Thank you so much. Safe travels!

[@DanielAbernathy]

I'm super impressed that y'all are able to fit so much in 45L bags. We took what seemed like less for a 2.5 month Europe backpacking trip and felt crammed in 55 & 65 liter packs!

[@KeithandDev]

Thanks for watching Daniel! 😊 When it’s all spread out it does look like a lot! But we have a system. We’re thinking about making a video about how we pack our bags exactly, if people are interested in that sort of thing.

Man I have a lot to learn! I haven’t been on a plane since I was 25. I’m 58 now. Just bought an Osprey 46L Porter. I’ve been told it’s ideal for a carryon. But I sure don’t know how to pack. And exactly what to bring for 2 weeks. I’m going to Vietnam in January 2023. First time overseas. And going solo. Something i need to do. After my wife passed away 4 years ago.sorry I just wrote a book. I enjoyed yalls video 😊

Hey Keith, thanks so much for sharing a part of your story with us ❤️ That is so exciting you will be travelling to Vietnam next year! We know you will love it and learn so much!

[@90DaysOfDevOps]

I am intrigued how you get everything in those PD travel backpacks, I am a big fan of them though I have had mine for around a year and I would and will use it for 10 day trips. Which I believe is what you would take for longer term travel as well. Great video.

[@KeithandDev]

Thank you so much Micheal. We agree, we love the bags for sure. Although it looks like we have a lot of stuff. It’s actually not much more than if we were to go on a two week trip :)

[@robertwilliamson6121]

I found a number of airlines made me check my 45 litre M.E.I. bag or Tortuga 45 litre. But when I went smaller to 35 litre Minaal bag, then they always allowed me to carry on. Now I’ve gone even smaller, to a 21 litre Minaal Daily, plus a 6 litre cross body sling bag, and travel months at a time. Carry on always now.

[@KeithandDev]

So far we have had no troubles getting on airplanes with our bags :) we have flown, air transit, air iberia, Ryanair, and Pegasus (although with Pegasus you were only allowed one bag, no personal item, which we both have so getting everything to fit in one bag was stressful. So probably won’t fly with them again :) That’s amazing you can travel so lightly ! We find our camera gear does take up a good amount of space but we do still have a good amount of stuff. It could be nice to down size :)

[@robertwilliamson6121]

@@KeithandDev The airlines that gave me a problem with my 45 litre bags were Cathay Pacific, Bangkok Airways, and Dragon Air. For going smaller I’ve adopted a minimalist style of one bag carry on travel. I can now go months, and indefinitely with just my 21 litre Minaal Daily and my Osprey 6 litre cross body sling. It helps that I travel only warm tropical countries. So no need of heavier clothing.

[@KeithandDev]

@@robertwilliamson6121 thanks Robert, we will keep those airlines in mind about maybe avoiding when booking flights in the future :) thanks! For us it is tricky as did pack for all climates, which takes up space for sure! But good thing we did because we are in Istanbul right now and it’s less the 10 degrees 🥶

[@robertwilliamson6121]

@@KeithandDev My only cameras are the camera on my iPhone and the camera on my Sonim XP3 phone and the camera on my iPad Mini. No other camera equipment, and no laptop or sound equipment. I’m also 70 years old now, and it’s much easier for me going much lighter and taking less stuff, much of which I used only once, or not at all, or that I could buy at my destination much cheaper than in my own country. I feel more free also being able to just pick up and go. Grab my bag out of the overhead, and never have to wait at airport carousels anymore, or wonder who’s handling my luggage, or hoping it didn’t accidentally get put on the wrong plane. Be safe, and enjoy your travels. ✈️🌴🙂🛺

So, I took advantage of the better shopping available here and looked at an Osprey Farpoint 40L and Porter 46L. After seeing and holding those 2 packs, I am SHOCKED that you two can get all of the items you displayed into 2 packs and 2 personal bags! That is very eye opening! PS.

Probably the most useful and fun one bag travel video I have ever seen. Awesome job! Have y'all run in to any issues where the airlines don't allow both a personal item and carry on yet? And where they weight he carry on bag? I have read certain international flights like Emirates and Qatar airways have started doing this and that can get in the way of one bag travel.

[@KeithandDev]

Hi Jez T, thanks for all the kind words and thanks for watching! 😊 Yes we recently had that come up with Pegasus Airlines, where they only allowed one bag even though we paid extra. We managed to downsize Devons laptop bag so her personal item could be the burgundy purse she has. We both wore more layers and my front carrying sling was allowed as my personal item at the check in desk (although at the gate, one of the staff questioned it and another said it was alright). I told them I was good to go based on the check in desk. It does make it more stressful though and we’ll try to avoid those Airlines I think in the future. Hope this helps!

Thank you so much! :) the button up is from LL Bean, but I actually got it at a thrift store :)

[@SbMathis-c4y]

Good job! Keith in your clothing you have a blue(gray) zipped jacket, fleece maybe. It's not on your Amazon shopping list, any idea of the brand? Thanks you!

[@KeithandDev]

Hi thanks! Yeah it's not on the update packing list, but it's still a fantastic fleece by Burton. Im unable to find it online unfortunately. Anyhow thanks so much for watching! :)

[@Fverheijden]

Love it!!

Hi you two! Really enjoy watching your videos, especially this one! What's your solution with towel(s)? Do you have a lightweight shower towel with you or do you use the ones provided in hotels/hostels? Also, what would you recommend for SE Asia? xx Sara

[@KeithandDev]

Thanks so much Sara 😊 for towels we normally use the ones from hotels, Airbnb’s, friends house etc, but when we’re out or on the beach or when we’re desperate, we use the microfibre towels we brought and they can be life savers (check gear list for info). They aren’t the softest or most absorbant but they do the trick, pack tightly, and most importantly DRY VERY QUICKLY! I say it’s a must as a travel item. Although we haven’t yet been to SE Asia we know it’s humid and hot (Towel would be good for when sweaty, at the beach, or doing water activities). For hostels sometime towels cost extra and in SE Asia depending on accommodations it might just be BYO towel… best of luck and safe travels!

Well done!!! Amazing job organizing!

[@KeithandDev]

Thank you!!! :)

Thank you!!

Great, but here in Europe most carry on luggage has a maximum weight of 7 kg, if you also take a handbag the 2 TOGETHER can not weigh more than 12 kg. No change in hell to pack for a year with that limit. Their are also strict size restrictions

[@KeithandDev]

Hey Mary, we totally appreciate your knowledge. We just finished 9 months in Europe with those bags and were able to get on every flight with no issues :)

[@jaypp9372]

Most airlines seem to have a weight limit for carry on of 7kgs unless you go Business and it increases to 15kgs. Your bags look heavier, I would be interested to know their weight?

[@KeithandDev]

Hi Jay! We cover this in our other video! Here’s the link! kzbin.info/www/bejne/haGko4aQjNd_hqM

[@polly1707]

Dev, where did you get your everyday laptop bag and the other little bag you carry?

[@KeithandDev]

I got my laptop bag at our local mall at a bentlys I believe which is a travel bag store. I’d you check out our packing list in the description it has the brand on it :). My other little bag is a lululemon sling :)

[@rachelm5478]

Did you have any trouble with carry on bag weight? In Australia, airlines will often weight your carry on and make you check it in (and charge you a fee to do so) if it's over the weight limit, which is 7 or 10 kg depending on the airline.

[@KeithandDev]

Hi Rachel, so far in our travels we have not had any troubles with our carry-on bags, we also have a few strategies, if we see they are going to weigh the bags. We are working on a website with blog posts so will create a post about that :)

[@KeithandDev]

That being said we still have not managed to make it to Australia so have not tested our bags there :)

[@janettealforte-kuan1933]

Love your video!!❤️

[@KeithandDev]

Thank you so much Janette :)

Salutations à vous deux de la ville de Québec ! I'm currently planning my first backpacking trip to Europe next year and your video has helped me a great deal. A 45L backpack seems a little big to be considered carry-on size. What has your experience at airports been like with this particular backpack so far ? Also, how do you prevent pickpocketing and theft on the road with that many bags ?

[@KeithandDev]

Allo Charles! Nous sommes heureux de vous avoir aidé avec votre planif! Yes 45L is technically bigger than instructed dimensions for some airlines, but not by much and hasn't been an issue for us so far. If you are able check in online for your flight you won't likely get questioned, the bag is close enough to most required dimensions, in fact most peoples carry on bags/luggage look bigger than ours. Even at check in desks for boarding passes they don't usually question you if you carry your bag with confidence. The peak design backpack looks smaller than it is too and it fits nicely into overhead compartment so there's no issue there either. As for pickpocketing, all 5 bags have strong inconspicuous zippers and some tuck away or tie up together. I wear the peak design sling on my front and Devon wears her wallet pouch on her front too. We keep our bags close and avoid carrying them around for extended periods of time in the open. Hope this helps!
