    Thank you for this video! I’ve been tossed between a 55l and 75l travel/hiking hybrid backpack, and everyone seems to push towards smaller backpacks. Watching this gave me a decent idea of what can fit in a 75l, especially considering that I want to be able to use it in both cold and warm climates.👍+1

    You're heading to SE Asia again?? Cool if you are! 🤩 Would be awesome to travel there more! Great packing video. 75 litres would be quite big for me even though sometimes I'd appreciate the extra space. I normally travel with my 40-liter backpack which works great for me 😄

      Yes, maybe I should of been more clear as a guy 70 Litres is okay but it does look very big on Emilia, so maybe not the best for her! 40 litres is great, must feel light with just 40!

    Hey Joel!! We are currently compiling our packing list for upcoming travels 😁 we also travel with some camera gear, laptop, etc... and are wondering how you found carrying all of the more expensive equipment in a backpacking that doesn't have lockable zippers or things like that?? Did you ever run into any troubles?? We will be staying in a combination of Hostels, Hotels, Airbnbs and other unique accommodations! Would love to hear your feedback/advice 🤗

    • @Joelfriend
      @Joelfriend  Před rokem +1

      I’ve never had anything stolen (apart from sunglasses potentially or I just lost them) south east Asia is super safe jus have to be careful, I don’t stay in many hostels anymore but always try lock valuable stuff away. But some hostels do not have lockers so keep that in mind. Hope that helps! 😊

      @LaurenAndReece Před rokem

      Hey I hope you don’t mind me answering as I was in the same scenario 😅 the biggest thing was a lifestyle change for me which freed up a lot of money… Instead of spending it on stuff that I didn’t physically need I put it away and went without it (which was crazy hard in the beginning) but this helped massively towards saving money for travelling. Also having a set concrete figure of what you would like to save helps as well because you can break it down to small savings numbers which seem a lot more achievable☺️

    bro, you definitely overpacked IMO. Lot of those things you are carrying can be bought cheap on the spot and then thrown away when you go back home, like flip flops, t shirts, most of the clothes basically, toiletries, sunscream, etc. There is no need for 70 liter backpack, 50 is in most cases more then enough and provides much more freedom of movement during the travel which is the most important thing

    Hey Joel
    Absoluetly adore your content and am learning at lot from you. But i just did a lil check on your partner safety wings and it seems they are only somewhat legit and use a really bad policy that sadly is legal but is morally the same as scamming people. Just telling you this so you maybe check up on what kind of sponsors you are working with and if they really are a good company to recommend to your followers.
    lots of love
