❤️ Why we love it

This backpack fits ALL of our stuff and it also fits the hand-luggage regulations of most airlines. Despite being a bit bulky, it sits on my back comfortably. It has one massive compartment (packing cubes recommended), an outside pocket with lots of organisational features, a 15” laptop compartment PLUS a smaller front pocket perfectly suited for a small liquids bag. The “straight jacket” compression system keeps our valuables safe and compresses the backpack to a minimum size for stowage.

🗒️ Things to note

We haven’t encountered any problems yet taking this backpack with us on any planes, but just to be sure check the carry-on restrictions of your most-used airlines before buying.

As much as I love travelling, I equally love planning and organising our next trips. Apart from crafting a good itinerary, I spend a lot of time researching the best travel gear and smart solutions for my travel wardrobe. The ultimate test for any product however is on the road, so once I'm convinced that I like an item, I like to share my tips and experiences with fellow travellers.
