I am a lightweight minimalist traveller. I write reviews for travel related products and also link to the videos of the same reviews. I have been travelling with a single 20 litre backpack that weighs just under 6kg (or 13lbs). I intend to travel a lot more and for longer periods of time and also find out how to make my bag lighter and more versatile along the way. I have also just written an eBook titled: One Light Bag: Packing Tips with the aim of helping others to packing lighter backpacks.

This eBook is a short and sweet guide full of useful tips for packing light. I have been travelling with just one light bag for the past several years and now I want to help others achieve the same.
Why Pack Light?
If you have ever travelled with a large heavy backpack or suitcase (or both) before then you’ll be all too familiar with the negatives of packing too much. In fact this is a common mistake of travelling and something that many people will fall victim to at some point or another. It’s a problem that some people don’t even realise they have. It starts as the seemingly innocent thought I’ll pack this just in case
. Before you know it you’ve got 2 bags jam packed full of things that you will most likely never take out of the bag until you arrive back home.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard anybody say I wish I had packed more!
More often I hear people with large bags complaining that they wished they hadn’t packed so much. In most cases though, if there is something that you forgot to pack you will be able to find an equivalent item at the destination country. For example you can find clothes, toothpaste and other toiletries at almost every airport or city in the world.
The problem is that we as human fear being unprepared. So we try to pack for every possible scenario. We also get caught up in idea of using specialty products when travelling. It’s easy to walk into a suitcase shop and see all the
