I saw a video earlier today on youtube by Darwin in the Woods. He does long hikes and says a) it is hard not to eat a whole bag of potato chips or cheetos in one go. b). As a hiker on a long trip he may not have the cleanest hands. So he scrunches up and breaks the chips into smaller pieces and eats them with a long handled spork. No dirty hands and a slower eating process. You can also either make the bag smaller & more packable by putting a pinhole in it and squeezing the air out so it folds down much flatter, or you can transfer the chips to a ziplock bag. That way you see what you have and can ration accordingly.

Just recently discovered your channel and appreciate your great tips! I travel frequently and rarely carry a purse or bag, having seen up close skilled pickpockets at work. I always wear a vest on planes, trains, buses and usually while walking in my home city and elsewhere. Three reasons: vest pockets are signficantly hard for pickpockets to access; for peace of mind in the kind of evacuation you mentioned (excellent advice to give your viewers!); and in case of another kind of emergency, my small wallet, phone, contact info, meds, etc will be found by a companion, medical personnel or law enforcement. I have several vests of varying fabric, weight and warmth, but recommend those with zippered pockets or adding snaps or velcro to pockets without zippers. That adds another level of security should a pickpocket target me or to keep important items in place during a slide from a plane or climbing out of a stopped bus or train. Scarves with zip pockets can serve the same purpose when I'm not carrying multiple important items. Thanks again - I'm enjoying catching up on all your videos.

The lug bags are heavier. They are organized really well and have a space for everything but they do take up more room per centimeters because Their intra-organization is also much thicker than the Bagolini bag (if you understand what I’m saying. ) So I can get a lot more things in the Bagolini, because all of its dividers are thinner than a lug bag.

So many cool hacks and gadgets here. I fly a lot, and use a lot of the same things you’ve cited here. A merino dress, and those little zip-top “baglets” are gold. OTOH, I’m in the minority of not liking a lot of pockets in my bag because I can’t keep them straight 😝 A few clear plastic baggie-type things does better for me. I’ve also learned that you usually get what you pay for. Having something break or become nonfunctional on a plane or trip is not fun-and the cheapest thing is not likely to last long. But there’s gazillion gadgets and aids for travel, and it’s great to have you sift through the offerings. So…new subscriber!

I have one very similar to that.. it's a Samantha Brown bag and I use it as my "Gramma Bag" when I babysit. my ipad, my snacks, my water bottle and earbuds, etc. I also can put my coffee travel cup in the holder too. I bought it for travel , but I use it almost every day.

Another great thing about your bag is it looks like a purse rather than a carry on. So they are less likely to insist you check it " because we are out of room". I was so mad when I intentionally bought a small carry on, with very valuable things inside and they were insisting I check it. Love the vest. I was thinking of maybe an outfit I'd wear like Mr. Gadget so I don't even have a bag. I might beep a bit, but they wouldn't make me check the clothes on my back!

@@LiseWrigley yes! This bag is specifically to fit underneath the seat in front of you so it will always be able to be with you unless you’re sitting in the bulkhead in which case you don’t have the seat in front of you and it has to go in the overhead bin and yes, they could make you check it. that’s why I always like to keep things like my wallet, my passport, my luggage tickets, and any medication or things that are valuable to me in my vest because I’ll always be able to wear that on the plane.😊💕

So glad I saw your video. I've got padded and fleece gilet, but never thought of them as a necessary travel item. I shall be off to our local UK Mountain Warehouse soon for a lightweight vest with lots of top opening flapped or zipped pockets. (don't like pockets in side seams, they're never spacious enough.) . Doesn't need to be padded. One that can zip up to the very top will keep the neck warm in cold weather .I'm twilight years, appreciate carrying less as time goes on. Means less weight in the cross body bag. - mobile phones are heavy. And I will put items in their own pouches where possible.. Never too old to learn. Thank you. E❤

Just discovered you, and I have enjoyed this video. I have just subscribed. I do want to remind you and others to please avoid eating peanut powder or peanuts or nuts on a plane. People with nut allergies don’t have to eat peanut products to suffer from anaphylaxis but can simply have their throat close from airborne contamination. This not only brings risk of death but increases chances of a plane having to land unexpectedly, delaying your own plans. Thank you!

For anyone who is interested I have another useful tip. I have a huge roll of paper cleaning cloths (much bigger squares than kitchen towel roll) . They are thick, and are actually compressed paper and linen. (they can be laundered). I take a few of those sheets, each cut into one third and Two thirds. The smaller piece becomes a travel wash cloth, the bigger piece a towel. The less I touch places other people have touched the better. Discard when finished - no wet face cloths going smelly in your sponge bag. Before I got that roll I used budget shop flimsy face cloths for travel washing and drying. And if I couldn't get those I used packs of cheap dishcloths, not pretty, but very practical, bin them when no longer required. . I do the same when staying with family and friends. The simpler the more convenient. I no longer travel abroad but I still take travel bottles of decanted toiletries when staying away . If I need to buy more I still decant into my bottles and give what is left to the hotel cleaning maids. If I'm staying with family they put it away until my next visit. Always go prepared for staying somewhere you hadn't intended to stay - car breakdown, public transport disruptions and you could end up needing a hotel room for a night. I'm lucky that I can leave essentials with my children - everything in a bag in a drawer so it can be moved when they have guests to stay. I've even left dressing table 2- sided mirrors, plain and magnifying, on small sturdy stands, and other people can benefit. And I leave tissues and panty liners there as well together with a pack of nappy bags to use to seal up the discards. The only items I put in rigid protective containers are the tech charging cables - I don't want to risk them being damaged in any way. . I use a click lid clear food container, and include a small torch and a plug in night light. . Now, the ultimate minimalist packing. An acquaintance of a friend used to fly to New York regularly. Apart from what he was wearing he took overnight wash and shaving items and other essentials, and one complete change of clothes. When he arrived he would buy whatever clothing and other things he needed, donate them to homeless charities when he left. How lovely that others benefitted from his wealth. E♥️

Great, informative video! I have been watching a lot of packing light/carry on only videos lately, and they all seem be far exceeding European bag size limits. Some of the personal item bags showcased in those videos would even exceed the carry on suitcase limits. I worry that many of the people watching those will follow suit and then be in for a big surprise when they are told they are not allowed when they get to the airport. So it is great to see actual size limits used in your video, and how you maximize the small space.

@@TheoryofSimple yes, and the European airlines are getting tighter as well. My carry on was weighed when I was checking in at SFO for a flight to Nice (thru Frankfurt) on Lufthansa last summer. Luckily I had heard they were one of the stricter airlines, so I had purchased a luggage scale and packed accordingly, and didn’t go over. But even in that small dimension rolling carry on, I could only pack it about 3/4 of the way before I hit my weight limit. And that was just with summer clothes, a pair of sandals and a hair tool. So it was definitely challenging. When I flew United to Paris in 2019, it was completely different; the size limits were much more generous and no one weighed or even mentioned my carry on or personal item. From what I understand, the Asian and European based airlines are getting more and more strict. When we got to Frankfurt, I was told my rolling carry on had to be checked for the flight to Nice. They were doing that to a lot of passengers. At that point I was so tired I didn’t even raise an objection, and handed it right over. Even though I knew I was well within both size and weight restrictions, it was a much smaller plane, and they were trying to make sure there were enough storage for everything, and I didn’t want to argue.

@@sylly654 yes many things have changed since the pandemic and we all have to be more diligent about what we’re packing and the good news about this. It makes you really question. What do you actually need versus?

I had a packet of 5 disposable toilet seat covers, a small thing of wipes and another of tissues in my personal carryon bag. Most helpful to be hygiene worry free in strange toilets. Also carried a spare pair of underwear too, incase of delays or whatever.

@@lindsayholden5959 love the idea of the toilet seat covers! I was just in an airport last week where they did not have toilet seat covers, and one of the dispensers and I ended up doing a nice long squat! Thank you for sharing that with us💕😊

My favorite thing was the organizer, and I loved all the small containers you had and what you covered in such a small bag. I want to learn how to travel lightly like that in a carry on. The wool dress and the scarf were impressive also!

Great point about keeping a luggage tag on your personal item! Although I already have a personal item bag, I think the organizer would be perfect for me!
