Sweet!
Tell me Shannon, what compression bags do you recommend? I'm rotating clothes in my closet; the stuff that's good and can be worn again when it comes back into fashion needs to be stored compactly... Your recommendation would be awesome for storage space at home!
Please write a post about this rather than just replying to my comment 😉
Good to see you have decided on an Osprey!! I recently started traveling with the Osprey Meridian 75. It has wheels so I can use it as backpack and wheeled bag at the same time. I love it! The amount of small compartments is perfect for all my smaller stuff I bring with me.Also the small backpack is pretty handy. It only sometimes is inconvenient when you quickly need something from the larger bag and you need to detach the backpack first. Enjoy your worldtrip!!
I have nothing planned at the moment. I used it for a cruise & Panama. The weird combination of luxury and remote made me pick this bag. The wheels and construction make it more heavy, and my bag is mostly useful if you plan on using the wheels more than the backpack. It is just pretty handy to be able to put your suitcase on your back ;)
Yeah, but it makes sense though! I actually considered this before because I am a lazy person who doesn't want to carry much, but a backpack is probably more convenient if you move a lot :p
As long as there is not enough asphalt, it is probably the best way ;) I am curious how often you will use the normal bag option. My guess would be almost never.
Thanks for your post @sjennon! A great journey starts with a good preparation. I always love it to get ready to go! I wish you an amazing trip! Btw. we just returned from a world trip so if you need some inspiration, i invite you to check my blog:-)
We just landed in Kuala Lumpur. Waiting flight to Singapore! Experience is amazing. We still have a few posts from Europe and then we will post about Asia.
Oh, I just thought. Plastic bags in hostels were the most annoying thing ever. At 3 am, when someone else was packing for a flight, or even at 7am when you're trying to not be awake. Or at 10pm when you're trying to pack quietly. Some form of cloth bag, like a pillow case is probably useful. Maybe a couple of them, for underwear & laundry will come in handy.
woa! the detachable day pack is GAME CHANGER! love that- i can tell you did a ton of research before picking this guy up- good choice! Wear it in good health and safe travels friend! <3

That sounds amazing too! I considered that but I am not sure if the extra weight of the wheel carriage is worth it.
Thank you! I really hope I can use it to it's full purpose :D
Where are you travelling to?

I have no idea to be honest. I shall discover it and let you know! Haha
Ik hou het in de gaten ;) Fijne reis!!
Leuk man, al die voorpret! Vind t heerlijk om 'licht' te reizen! Geen gesleep met allemaal spul 😉 wanneer vertrek je?
Ja, ik ben gewoon héél benieuwd naar hoe het is enzo! En ja, inderdaad. Is ook zo vermoeiend en we zijn liever lui dan moe!
Ik vertrek de 20e!
I have this pack and have been SUPER happy with it!!!
Oh, wow really? :D That's awesome! Where did you take it to?
So far, just trips around the US and then to Coasta Rica and Panama. It's perfect for backpacking trips though (travel backpacking, not hiking)!
Travel backpacking for sure. Not planning to hike with this! Hehe.
Any cool things I need to know?
Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you so much for your kind words! I will definitely take a look :D
I love those backpacks! Mine is forclaz 50L, it used to be enough actually but since I plan longer trips, I feel like I need to get one 70L soon! :)
Ah cool! So far, I am really happy with it but I guess I will only find out after I actually start using it!
They also have a Farpoint 70 by the way. Might be worth looking into!
I'll check it out. Thank you for informing me :)
Bon vojage. We are also on our world tour. We can meet somewhere sometimes and make some double steemit post ;) Travel safe
Oh cool! Where are you right now? :D How are you experiencing it?
We just landed in Kuala Lumpur. Waiting flight to Singapore! Experience is amazing. We still have a few posts from Europe and then we will post about Asia.
Good post, I am a photographer, it passes for my blog and sees my content, I hope that it should be of your taste :D greetings
How exciting!!! Best of luck for that new adventure :-)
Thank you so much! I am super curious to whats to come!
Wow Have fun on your worldtrip. When you will start?
I just passed my first week on it 😊 actually I'm in Thailand.
Thank you so much! I am starting next week - 20th of January.
Cool, where are you right now and where are you heading? :D
We are actually on the way from Pai to chiang Rai 😊
Ooh, how is that coming along? What kind of transportation did you take?
I love that it opens like a suitcase
That was really one of the things I looked for. Its super easy!
