Alright, I'll keep this short and simple. I love one-bag travel and I think you will too! Everything is easier when you carry less. You won't pay baggage fees, you won't hurt your back, you will feel cool af walking around with everything on your back, AND you will feel liberated by not carrying your fears on your back. I made this video in a way that my younger self would have found helpful. I hope it helps you too! Thanks for watching! I'm happy to answer any other questions you have:)
P.S. I am aware I could have a lighter bag and a lighter setup. The point of this video isn't to show you the tiniest amount possible that you can bring, but that in fact one-bag travel is very achievable and can even be comfortable! If you don't count this as minimalist, then good for you:) Also, I would likely bring my larger 40L bag for traveling to cold locations as the clothing alone would take up a significant amount more space. I'm showing what works for me in my specific situation, hoping that even one or two tips can help you out! So far I am perfectly happy with what I brought on my trip and have run into no problems!

@BeinKian

Have you ever tried one bag travel? Respond to this comment and tell me your experience! Also curious to see what bags you use.I am currently using the Aer Travel Pack Small 28L, and previously used the Nomadic Travel Bag 40L

@AtmosJourney

I always travel with a single bag. The real uneasiness for most folks to try travelling with a single bag is due to their old mindset that a wheeled luggage must go along for long distance travel so that they could bring everything along. In most cases some of the stuffs inside the heavy check-in luggage is redundant. So, pack light and get that nomadic vibes when you go travelling places to places just like I always do. Thanks Bein Kian for advocating this form of one bag travel.

@TravelForFoods

You don't need the bottle of water because where can you refill in bali? you can't drink the water there. you will get bali belly

Excellent packing for a You Tuber, who have to bring copious technology wherever they go (what? No drone? No circle light?) For those of us who travel to beautiful places just to enjoy them, the only tech you need is a phone. Less tech then means you don’t need a heavy, expensive backpack. Your high school Jansport is more than enough. No problem getting to less than 12 pounds total, at a fraction of the cost. Can’t do You Tube, though.

@matthewberry3055

Bro, your backpack and computer alone (not including the chargers etc) weigh 4 kilos. Adding in your tech gear (no clothes, no toiletries etc) and you're well over 7kgs. Just saying :)

@gindinil

well, it's not around the world. it's just for hot weather and one country.

@udayshome1793

The part without a shirt on, was completely unnecessary to explain one-bagging which I have been doing for more than a decade.

@FatStacksAcademy

I never knew it was possible to travel so lightly!

@filamphibian2980

Well done! I live in the Philippines and just returned from a week in Wales and England. My one bag for travel is a 45l Osprey. Compared to you, I had less tech yet more warm weather clothing. I find it empowering to walk off the plane, go thru immigration, and keep walking past the luggage turnstiles and go straight to the train, bus, or Uber pick up.

@saedo42

Isn't that technically 2 bags? lol

@philmurray8192

Man, I appreciate you sharing the thought process of trying to get the bag down under 7kg! A lot of explanations miss what a game this is. Move things around to meet the goals of the moment. Heavy stuff goes into pockets or the personal items during check-in, out of the pockets and back into bags for security, back into pockets for the gate, and finally move them to the spots you need them to be for the flight. You touched on it briefly, but you have options: the main bag, pockets, wearing some items, and your sling.

My advise for tops in Asia is to bring:

@atulanandadas

Been looking forward to this vid! Yeew

@sevvvvv

New subscriber here, super useful video and have fun in Bali :) !!

@ariesmry

nice video! I typically travel with a backpack and a tote bag that I slide under the seat on the plane, but I'm currently tweaking my packing to truly fit into one bag. My biggest pain points aren't exactly my fears, but a few luxury items that I know I'm being stubborn on. Every time I take something away from my pack, my brain immediately goes to "oh! now I have room for xyz random item." Still training the brain.

@SilatShooter

Agree with you on one bag travel. I, too, have the Aer Travel Pak 3 but I find it warm against my back. Have gone to a Tortuga pack, works better for me. otherwise agree and solid video!

@szisz1835

Awesome video, can't wait for my own Aer backpack too

@relh7944

Love the seek discomfort flag!

@KelvinHew7

For me, i wanted try one bag or 2 bags (travel backpack+duffel for longer trips) because i do not want to go through the hassle of checking in a luggage like eveeyone else. Currently im using the Evergoods CTB26, which is very similar to the AER Travel Pack 3 Small and its lighter by 200 grams and i prefer its functionality. For duffel im using the Bellroy Venture Duffel 40L and it only weighs 620 grams. For 4 days trip, ill just use the CTB26 , AER Day Sling 3 X-Pac and a packable tote from Nomatic or Peak Design for just in case. I have learnt to travel light from watching videos like yours and from my own travel experience. At the end of the day, i want to enjoy my travels and not get stressed out over unnecessary things. Travel light and smart my friends 👍
