Fjällräven Kanken 13" Laptop Backpack - Packing for a 3 MONTH TRIP AROUND THE WORLD!

I'm really challenging my minimalist travel abilities with this Fjällräven Kanken 13" Laptop Backpack that's only 13 liters. I'm doing an around the world, 3 continent, 3 month trip with only what I can fit in this tiny backpack.
I've cut down a lot on everything, but I think I can do it with minimal camera gear, just enough clothes, and the bare essentials.
Here's my itinerary, so far:
Starting in Mexico City
2 nights Las Vegas
6 nights Los Angeles
1 night Tucson
1 night Houston
1 night NYC
3 nights Berlin
1 night Athens, Greece
16 nights Kalamata and surrounding areas, Greece
3 nights Bangkok, Thailand
6 nights Chiang Mai, Thailand
8 nights Koh Samui, Thailand
7 nights Pattaya, Thailand
5 nights Danang, Vietnam
5 nights Hue, Vietnam
4 nights Hoi An, Vietnam
5 nights, Nha Trang, Vietnam
5 nights Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam
then I think back to Bangkok or other parts of Thailand for a couple weeks and back to Mexico City

Just ordered 15 inches kånken and I was looking at yt videos to see how much stuff people can pack in them. Looks like I made a good choice! Safe travels!

@ToddHata Жыл бұрын

Great, I hope it works out for you. I also bought the 15" used it a bit, and just ordered the 17". So I'll make a video on the size differences in a couple weeks

I have the 15" Kånken and tbh I brought too much stuff in it when I did 3 weeks of travelling in 2022. They're very sturdy bags and can hold way more than people think lol

I bought a Kanken 17” after trying the 15”. The latter looked too small on me. And I should add the 13” actually looks too small on you too. Anyway, brought the Kankjen 17” home and realized how easily it is filled. I took it back and swapped it for a Raven 28. Great decision for me! That has been on a few trips with me…although I also have a couple other larger travel backpacks now as well. But truly, the Raven 28 is by far the best backpack for price-performance that I have come across to-date. As one other reviewer has stated, “it’s the bag I keep coming back to”. Kudos to what you are doing with a smaller backpack, but I could never do that.

@ToddHata 5 ай бұрын

That's great, I was looking at the Raven 28, but it's too much bag for me. Yes the 13" is too small for me, but I've actually lost a bunch of weight so it fits better, but I did give it away to a friend, I won't ever use it. I'm currently using the 15" on this 3 month trip to Asia, and I actually have a little bit of free space!

Dang great video. Under 15 pounds! Thank 🎉🎉🎉you 4 excellent presentation! I’ve purchased Avianca “basic” tix to LATAM in 10 days. Avianca flight @ half price of going rates: ($489 rt vs $$1,289 USD currently, rt is a steal.) I just can’t: survive 28 day Colombia trip w/only 14x 18 inch personal item ( that is supposed 2 fit underneath seat in front. ) Tip: Avianca allowed me 1 add checked bag 4 $110 USD under my manage flight(s) tab, rt: add’ll $110, yada yada new 2024 size, weight restrictions. This add on fee wd be hugely more expensive @ check in, day of my July flight. This diva is allowed a checked bag, dios mío❤Appreciate this video mucho!

Are you going to do a separate video with what is actually in there? Seeing all the cubes packed doesn’t help break down what you actually brought. That would be great to see!

Nah, that's it, you can see what I laid out, it's not a lot, very minimal clothing. Only issue I may have if it's cold in Berlin, but I don't want to take anything bulky just for a few days out of 3 months, most of the time in SE Asia 🙂

Really good, but minus the ipad, extra phone and half the cables, you could actually have a lot more space!

@ToddHata Жыл бұрын

Since I'm traveling for 3 months, taking about 12-15 flights, I thought I would use the iPad, but I haven't used it yet. I always carry an extra phone since if something happens to my main phone I can't log into anything that needs the authentication codes, and my phone is my main camera for photos and vertical video, so I need a good quality backup. I do need to leave some cables out, but that's still pretty minimal weight and space. Picked up a few things along the way, but still managing space well, it is challenging though, and I'm way over the 7kg limit for most of these SE Asia airlines, but so far no one has weighed bags.

Todd. Do you prefer the 13" or the classic for those who carry notebook?

@ToddHata 9 ай бұрын

Actually the 13" was too narrow for me, the straps were too small, but if you're a thinner person it will be fine. For a tablet, either one, this will have the extra laptop compartment to keep it separated, and you'll have extra room in there for maybe a light jacket or something. But it's much pricier than the regular backpacks.
