I've been trying to pack lighter and lighter -- while going on longer and longer trips to SE Asia and Central America. Weight is often a more significant issue than bag dimensions. Airports in some countries are more strict on this than others. One thing I've done is to just assume that I will buy much of my clothes at the destination. Since I've been able to establish a few "home base" communities in Thailand, I've gotten a pretty good idea of what sort of things will (and will not) be available at the local street markets there. Essentially, I don't bring anything with me that I can reasonably expect I can find in local shops at my destination. On my returns, I've often just given clothes away to local charities or shop owners. Still, this remains a challenge... Of course, this means I'm not able to bring much back in the way of souvenirs and gifts -- one thing I've considered is to find out about how to ship things back that I don't want to carry around with me. Another thing I've considered is just buying a larger travel bag when over there and bringing it back as checked baggage. I've long-since gotten past the notion of tourist souvenirs for myself -- but it would be nice to be able to bring back at least a few things for others.

Yes, weight is a consideration depending on the airline, especially for Chris. My bag weighs less than 15lbs (7kg) but Chris’s is more. We’ve also taken a “buy when you get there” approach. Checking a bag is expensive. We find it cheaper just to buy what we need when we arrive. We get what you’re saying about souvenirs. We usually stick with small things like key chains unless there is something really specific we want to bring someone. We’ve also found that postcards are great to send, if we’re somewhere with reliable mail service.

Which travel insurance do you guys use? Safety wing? Do you buy per trip or annually? Enjoy your travels we are finally retired shortly within the next week and are booked to go on our 1st long term travel starting off in Vietnam-Thailand-Singapore-Australia-New Zealand and back just in time to do our taxes in Canada.

Congratulations on your retirement! Your trip sounds amazing! We buy the one-year, multi-trip insurance through BCAA (the British Columbia division of CAA/AAA). You don’t have to be a member to purchase the insurance.
