- Recently, many of you have contacted me asking what bag I use and what else I take with me when I travel. I just arrived in a new place in Brazil and I only carry my carry-on size backpack and my personal item. I like to travel minimalist and in this video I show you what I packed and need to live with for the next 24 days.

Hi everyone. I have to apologize, it seems I may have caused some confusion with this video. My bag is carry-on sized, but I did not just arrive by plane when I got to this place. I am already in the country since several weeks (distancing ourselves etc), and I have purchased my sunscreen and bugspray after I arrived in the country. :)
So far, I also got lucky and never had that wine opener taken away. I also travel with scissors (less than
Good choice with the Vans! The Vans ultrarange shoes are so comfortable. Very soft and springy mid-sole and you can dress them up or down.
Pouches are everything! I recommend for everyone to utilise what you already have and use old tech cases, sunglasses case or small makeup bags instead of buying new ones 💕
So true… I think it’s more fun to make it a challenge and see how you can reuse things you already have. :)
I can’t tell you how fast I ordered that travel corkscrew. Thank you! That’s perfect for travel.
😂 Glad I could help! :)
Where did you find it?
Its on amazon i wanted one as well
Can someone post the link, can't find it
I also use pouches! Not just for traveling, but for everyday. It's really useful if you switch bags alot.
Yes make video for tech items!!
Very interesting and helpful. Most videos are made for men.
This was great. Thanks so very much for a woman's point of view!
I do love pouches and packing cubes.
I would love to see what tech you carry. I'm recently widowed and will be travelling on my own in future so I need to learn what my husband always took care of in the past , so it would be very helpful for me
Love the video & all the pouches. It cracked me up with the MacGyver Pouch. Now I'll call mine the MacGyver pouch as well. Happy Travels to you!
Happy travels to you, too! What do you keep in your MacGyver pouch? :)
I can’t believe how much you managed to fit in a backpack. Well done.
Love the wine opener
My favorite...the little wine opener ! :)
The corkscrew is very convenient! I really enjoyed this packing video! 😁
Wow! That pack is amazing.
I love you! I too love pouches and packing everything possible in my backpack.
I have been using pouches and cubes in my carry on what a big difference it’s been to use know I can takeout what I need so quick.Also I have been watching on utube for the past year how to pack just what I need . Great information and I use now when I travel . Thank You for everyone for your videos.Have happy travels for 2022 and always 👋🏼😏
Great video. Like the pouches
Adorei o seu vídeo!!! Obrigada pelas dicas novamente!
De nada! :)
Brilliant info - lots of great items I added to my list! I’m also a pouch person, and in non-travel life collect a ton of handmade and unusual boxes. Don’t know if it’s the organization thing or the collecting thing, but I love to have little hiding places for similar items. 😁 As a longtime hiker, I’m familiar with several of these brands, but hadn’t seen the Osprey wallet - looks perfect! So glad this vid popped up in my feed and heading off to watch more of your channel. Thanks!!
Yay! Nice to meet another pouch lover! ;-)
I love your videos and content, but also love your humor/personality 🥰 Thank you for the awesome content 🤍
Thanks Alexandra! ♥️
I too
Ordered the travel corkscrew
I really enjoyed this video. Like you, I am a pouch girl as well. I just ordered a new backpack so, I will have to find “new” pouches 😍
Finding new pouches is the best part. 😄 Have fun!
Leather zipped card pouches are great as an alternative to tins. They provide some cushioning because the leather is often a bit stiff.
for traveling frequently I've been slowly investing in merino wool pieces. Doesn't require frequent washing and stays odor free. Maybe it's just me, but any quick dry polyester active type clothes starts smelling even with one wear and odors seems to stay penetrated even after washing sometimes
You are absolutely right, Merino wool is great! I talk about it a little bit in my other video about how I pick my clothes for my travel wardrobe. But at the moment, I am working on “using up” all my T-Shirts. I gave up my apartment and have a few T-Shirts left. My merino ones already died on me, all that’s left are the polyester (mix) ones, and I don’t want to throw them away. I will wear them until I have to discard them. Then I will probably replace them with Merino T-Shirts again. But I am lucky with the stink, so I am fine with that in the moment ;-)
I used to have that stink problem more when I traveled with cotton T-Shirts and not enough time for them to dry (the good old times… ;-). Then I just made sure I washed them in hot water and let them soak there for a while, and I used some hair conditioner to give it a better smell. I also keep either a dryer sheet or one of those scented pads for textile in my packing cube.
Bem vinda ao Brasil! 🇧🇷
Muito obrigada. :)
I have the same tech pouch I love it,
Oooh, der Flaschenöffner ist ja süß😁
Pfff… nenn ihn nicht süß… er mag lieber als „klein aber oho“ bezeichnet werden 😂😂😂
i love pouches too.. only way to be ;)
MacGyver pouch 😆 Love it.
I didn't realise you'd posted some more videos so I've subscribed now so I don't miss any more.
My travel brush is about half that size (also collapsible and has a little mirror) but I also take my wooden comb - better for hair. The brush is just for styling
Thanks for showing that sea-to-summit dry bag! (Did you have that in your last packing video? I don't remember). Looks HEAPS lightweight. Most drybags are quite thick and bulky so I've realised I need to find a light 1. How does it work for you? All nice and watertight?
Hi Susie!
Thanks for subscribing! :-)
Yes, so far the Sea to Summit drybag holds up quite nicely. It’s the one with their UltraSil material (or it’s called something like this). It’s really superthin and very lightweight. I also had my doubts, but I always use it to wash my laundry (so I actually fill it up with water), and so far, it seems to do it’s job pretty well.
I used to have one of the smaller collapsible brushes (I showed it in my toiletries video), but it broke, so I decided to go with this bigger one since my hair got longer.
And I saw that on my other video you commented about solid sunscreen. I also use it and often bring it as a backup / emergency / for the first days, but I always just purchase a bigger sunscreen upon arrival.
@@MaggiFuchs thanks for the detail. I'll keep an eye out for that.
I also think it'd be good for storing dirty laundry to keep that separate from your other clothes - until you get time to wash bulkier items (that might stink up your bag in the meantime). Some people recommend the plastic compression bags for that but I think if you're taking a drybag anyway why not get as much use out of it as possible.
Oh, I have quite long hair, hence the comb but a little brush for styling (a comb just doesn't cut it for flyaways, unfortunately 🤨). Have had that travel brush for 20+ years now. It just hangs out in my handbag unless I'm lucky enough to go on a trip
@@susie9893 Absolutely agree! :) My drybag is almost always in use… Most of the time to store and wash laundry and sometimes to protect my tech items (on boat rides etc.). :)
You are so delightfull!
❤️
Hi Maggi, Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge of travelling and packing. I appreciate it. I have a question... Where did you get the tiny Rummikube? I love it and the size is perfect for the aeroplane. Thank you xx
Hi! I bought it here in a toy store in Austria. It came in a plastic box that I discarded and just kept the stones and the stands. Here in Austria, it‘s product number is „Jumbo 03942 Rummikub“. I hope this helps. :)
@@MaggiFuchs I doubt I will be able to get because of stupid Brexit but I appreciate your reply. Thank you so much xx
Thanks for this video. I really like your backpack! What size is it and could you please do a review? Thanks so much.
It‘s the Nitro Weekender, I believe its 42 liters or so? 🤔 And thanks for the good suggestion, maybe I do an review and talk about how the bag held up after a few months of non-stop travel (so far, it‘s been 2.5 months and it seems like new). :-)
Tech bag dump video please!
Hello, I just found your channel, thanks for that! Would you mind listing the pouches down, please? Yes, I am also pouches fan, so I totally understand you! And yes, please, do the video about your tech pouch! I am sorry if you put these things somewhere and I missed it, but I checked your channel and did not see it. Thank you, take care!
Hi Jana! Thanks for your nice comment. I did not put a list anywhere. To be honest, when I filmed the video, I did not think that people would be so interested in the exact type of pouches. 😅 Most of my pouches are just random ones I collected over the years, a few free ones (in airplanes), a few cheap ones and a few expensive ones. I am not sure if I remember where I got each of them nor the exact brand or if they are even still available. If there is a special one that you liked, I can try to remember. 😊
And I will definitely try to improve that in the future and include more links.
@@MaggiFuchs Hello, no worries! I am just pouch maniac, it is actually good that there is no list, so I might save some money while not buying them :D But I do it pretty similar - sometimes buy nice expensive one, sometimes cheaper functional one, mostly trying not to buy any. If I go it right you are German, aren't you? Either way, I am just sending you greetings from Germany!
@@TheElissEl I think pouch addiction us a real thing! 😂
Almost correct, I am from Austria! 🇦🇹 🤗
@@MaggiFuchs It definitely is! And ups, so close. So have a nice traveling and maybe talk to you any time sooner or later! :)
Maybe some day you can do a dedicated video on the personal item bag!
Sounds like an excellent idea. :) Would you be more interested in what type of bag I use or what I pack in my personal item? :)
@@MaggiFuchs Both! :-)😀
@@m31indap Got it… 😂
I had the same corkscrew and never had trouble getting it through airport security but in Italy the security screener pulled it out. It was considered unsafe to be in my carry on. Also, you must have to repack for flying to put your few liquids and lotions into a clear bag for security clearance?
On this trip I did not directly come from an Airplane, I have been in the country already. Of course I have to reorganize a few things if I would fly. :)
Given some of the big sunscreen you had I’m guessing your backpack was checked luggage not carryon? Have you ever tried carrying on the travel corkscrew or your sewing kit. I would think that both might cause you to have to check the backpack. And yes, tech video would be great. Would love to compare what you pack against what I pack.
No, I use it as CarryOn. On this trip I was already traveling within Brazil and not coming over from Europe. You’re right, I would not be able to get that sunscreen and bugspray through security. I did not mention it in that video (but in the one about my toiletries) that I purchase those things at my destination. With as much sunscreen as I need, I would need to check in large suitcase just for that! 😂 So I buy when I arrive. Before we went to the beach, we were already in Brazil for a few weeks and isolated ourselves for two weeks and then I had plenty of time to buy those things. :)
I fly with the needle and corkscrew in carry-on and surprisingly they have never been a problem. I guess because they are
not sure where you're traveling, but in the US, the sewing kit would be fine, per TSA. Even knitting needles are allowed. The wine opener as long as it doesn't have a blade is fine - so this one would work.
You can get sunscreen and mosquito repellent as sticks (ie solid) now. But read reviews carefully - some aren't so great
I really like her voice
Thank you so much for saying that. I still cringe everytime I hear myself in a video, so this is very nice to know… 😅❤️
Thanks for your helpful video. Which tech pouch do you own?
It is a bag from Inatek, very similar to the Tech Pouch from Peak Design.
Thanks for the great videos! So many useful tips. Could you please share the brand name and size of your backpack? I couldn't see it in the description
That was a Nitro Weekender - 42 liters. If you want more info about the bag, did another video where I talk about my travel bag evolution and my reasons why I stopped using this bag. :)
@@MaggiFuchs thank you so much. I will check out that other video too. Much appreciated 🙏
Hello! This is a great video, thank you! I have a question about your little bottle opener tool. Were you able to carry this through the security? I have a multitool and wondering if I can take it with me if I travel carry on only. Thank you!
Yes, so far I had no problems (but in the end, it depends on the security staff)… I am not sure about a Multitool, I have no experience with them.
@@MaggiFuchs Thank you!
Hello Could you post a link to the document bag / pouch from Osprey? Thank you!
Hi! I couldn‘t find a link, but it‘s called Osprey Document Zip Wallet. Hope that helps. :)
How do you carry the aerosol cans through airport security? Thought they would have to be
Hi Alice! Absolutely right, I did not bring the Aerosol can in the airplane. I purchased them right after I arrived. Sorry, I should have made that more clear in the video. :)
Where do you buy the matador in the eu? Do you have a good link? I am in DK. The Lush shampoo, etc?
They have them every once in a while on Amazon.de, but they are sold out most of the time. I was lucky and got them there a while ago. Other than that, I only know Mukama in Europe that has it. I believe they ship all over Europe. And the Lush shampoos… I have a Lush store in the next big city, but I haven’t been in a while, because nowadays, solid shampoos are easier to get. :)
Do you have an issue traveling with your toiletries in your toiletry pouch like that through airport security? I was traveling through Europe in September and in the UK they required all liquids to be in the 3-1-1 clear pouch. I was also in Germany and Spain and they were requiring all liquids in the clear bags. So, I was using my Tom Bihn 3D Organizer cube. My friend had a regular pouch and had to move his toiletries into a resealable bag at the airport and it was a bit of a pain.
Hi Jen! Of course I can‘t go through airport security like this. I always keep a clear 1l ziploc bag with me, and when I pack up for a trip on an airplane, I repack. I agree that this would be quite a hassle to do at the airport, but when I do it before leaving, it‘s a matter of a minute or two. If you want to know what is in my toiletry kit (because I switched to solids as much as possible, due to airline restrictions), I did a separate video on that. :)
@@MaggiFuchs I've been trying to move to more solids as well due to frequent travel. I'll check out that video! Thanks!!
Hi Maggi, welche Größe ist bitte die Tasche für dein Kleidung von Peak design? Ist das ein S für 9 Liter? Danke dir 🥰 und LG, Anja.
Hi Anja, ja genau, die kleinere Variante. :)
Does your corkscrew get through security. We have lost many corkscrews in carry on
Hi Drew! So far, I got lucky with this one! :)
Would love product links!
Hi Kristen! Thanks for the feedback, I will try to include them in future videos. :)
What is a "stretching band'" please? @9:40
I don’t know the proper term for this… ;-)
It‘s one of those stretching bands that you use for physiotherapy or stretching or some exercises… The brand in Germany is called Thera-Band. And they are very thin and lightweight, so I like to bring one along.
And where did you get that bottle opener/wine bottle opener?
I bought in many years ago at some gadget website. But when you look for a keychain wine bottle opener, this and similar models should come up. Hope this helps. :)
nice video..what is the brand of the big bag please?what is the model name of Eagle Creek Bag Please?How many liters each of them?where can i buy online or actual stores please?
The big bag is a Nitro Weekender, 42 liters. The Eagle Creek one is calles Wayfinder Crossbody bag. I bought them both on Amazon in Germany.
How big is your eagle creek bag? And generally what size can personal item bags go without them started to look like carry-ons?
Not sure how big it is and I cant measure it for you because I dont travel with a measurement tape. 😅 usually, a small backpack or laptop bag is allowed. The eagle creek one is smaller though, it only fits my 11 inch iPad.
@@MaggiFuchs thanks for the reply Maggi. I was wondering more in terms of liters than size. If you have to have its full name I can look for the specs
@@kead6636 i think its called eagle creek wayfarer messenger bag :)
I LOVE your rainbow macguyver pouch!!!! Where did you get it???
I bought it at a store called TEDi, which is a german version of a dollar store I guess? It was very cheap and unfortunately there is no brand or anything on it…
Versions of those are all over Thailand. I see them in various chain stores, and even plastics shops.
Vou ajudá-la a aprender português! :) Qual o nome do Saca-rolhas minimalista que tens? AMEI!!!
Eu preciso muito ajudar para aprender sua lingua. E muito dificil… 😅 Eu nao estudo para escrever, somente para falar… por isso, por favor, desculpa… Eu acho que nao e legal ler este mensagem. 😂 Mas eu tento… 😅😅😅
@@MaggiFuchs ok! Es ist sehr gut! Ihre Sprache ist auch nicht einfach! Wichtiger ist es spechen!
How much is the weight of your main bag and everything in it? Thanks!
I am not 100% sure, but my main bag is usually quite light and usually less than 7 kg.
What do you use as a Rain jacket? Whats The model
My current jacket is from Haglöfs, I think it’s the Merak.
Some of the pouches are taking up more space than the item that’s in them.
How heavy is the loaded backpack?
Usually around 7 kg
What is the tiny game ? I couldn't catch the name.
It‘s called Rummikub. They have their „standard“ travel edition in a pouch, and the one we have is another - even smaller - travel edition. It came in a rather bulky plastic box that we immediately discarded.
How much does your carry on weigh?
I don‘t remember how heavy this bag was, but usually I am around 6 - 7 kgs.
you can bring a that on a plane??
What’s exactly a that? :)
what phone did u record this video?
Iphone 12 mini :)
thanks, great video 📹 by the way 👍😀
You should NEVER open the packing cube like that ... no wonder the other one broke!
Well.. these packing cube from Peak Design are designed to open like this and have a special pull tab to do so. They call it their „Ultra Fast Tear Away Opening“. 😊With my old one, I obviously did not open it like this. That would not have worked. But after 5 years of regular use, I think it deserves to rest in peace. ;-)
@@MaggiFuchs You could have said that in the video!
