Most annoying for me is not having a knife or scissors. Otherwise, I can easily fit a full set of clothes in carry-on luggage.
>buy clothes at your destination
Unfortunately, Third World clothes vendors love ripping off foreigners for sub-par apparel that would never pass quality control for export.

Sorry to be more blunt then. how the fuck are people comfortably doing a personal item+carry on for long term travel? I see people posting about 1 bag shit and stuff and simply don't get it. The bulkiest shit I have is my 14 inch laptop+usb-c display, then clothing/spare power cables, spare shoes for gym, and shit like toiletries.
The ONLY way I see this happening is if you're sticking to a similar climate year-round like SEA where things like a coat, long sleeve shirts, and pants are an afterthought. So looking for tips from other travelers.

Speaking my language, not to mention as someone who has a height beginning with 6 most the clothes don't fit quite right. Sure if I was 5'9 I'd be slipping into things easily. Yeah the quality is always sub par like the amount of times I had to buy something and go "yeah throwing this away in 3 months when it's tearing" just made me pack stuff from home.

I'm just about getting away with the Osprey Farpoint 40 when one-bagging. Apparently gate staff are mainly concerned with hardback suitcases and unless they're assholes, don't really check 'reasponable looking backpacks' much.

Been measured twice and got away with it. Took laptop outboth times, and slightly bent the bag's support in diagonally to make it fit.

Packing cubes help a lot.

I aim for a week of clothes, and usually wash things every couple of days or so.
I'll buy lots of cheap plain t-shirts which I can replace if they get grubby, too.

Typically wear boots on airport days to save bag space. Decent combats with zips to turn into shorts are dual purpose.
100ml refillable toiletries as emergency, which I keep topped up as I move along. Hotels typically have shit I ransack.

Travel towels are light and easily rollable.

I ensure everything I have is usb-c and use my laptop charger for everything.

Travel like 8 times a year, between 1-4 weeks a time. It's pretty comfy. Fucking hate lugging suitcases around.

>>2848474
Some anon recommended this bag to me and it has been great. Carry on for outbound, then when full of souvenirs on the way home check the large bag and use daypack for carry on.

>>2848474

See this is probably where carry on only/1bag stuff falls apart. If you're doing 1-4 weeks who gives a shit, it's when you have long term travel mixed in that stuff gets into the grey area I feel. In short vacations/holidays you know the weather isn't going to change that drastically and if unexpected stuff comes up no biggie you're only there for a few weeks.

Lesson learned checked might be a bit more but worth it overall.

>>2848551
nta but I agree here. I travel for 2-4 months at a time. I have a carry on, backpack (decent sized but not a huge traveler one), and a checked bag. So I can have my base in 1 city and then still have the freedom to take 2-3 day excursions to other nearby places.

IMO if you're not staying in hostels you might as well check a bag, even take 2 bags. Having 2 bags and a backpack to roll around is a bitch but you're only doing that from your home to the cab (like 30 seconds of walking), then from the cab to the check in at the airport (5 mins walking), then from the baggage claim to the cab (5 mins walking), and then bringing the bag from the cab to the hotel/airbnb (30 seconds again).

But the benefit of having 2 bags is now I have 3 weeks of clothes, I do laundry once every 2-3 weeks. In a 2 month period I do laundry 2-3 times vs if you only have 7 days of clothes you're doing laundry 7-8 times. How much time are you losing doing laundry? For what? Not waiting 15 mins at baggage claim and having a slightly easier time getting from the airport to the cab???

>>2848551
>Changing weather
I've always found that a decent rain jacket with a jumper sorts me out for practically everything.
I just carry this shit through the airport.

>>2848603
I guess doing laundry has become a bit of a habit.
>get in
>fill sink with hot water and whatever chems I can find
>bung in clothes needing washed
>rub them all together and leave to soak while having a shower
>undo plug and rinse out
Doesn't take long at all really.

I do hate the carousel waiting immensely, but it 's also:
>not needing to often physically check in
>no risk of losing bags or getting shit damaged
>ability to keep luggage with you at all times in taxis, trains
>ability to mix in long-distance hikes to travels to break up citygrinding

>>2848655
What about snow in winter months when it's like 20F and windy, or worse if you're in Europe?

>>2848670
-6c isn't that bad, desu. Can easily get by with 2 t-shirts, a jumper, and a thin jacket. Hats, scarves and gloves, etc are cheap as fuck to pick up.
Putting layers on is incredibly effective. Used to do similar shit in Russia where it went down to -40c and muh fucking beer froze on the street.

>>2848672
Sure anon you totally don't look like a tard with 2 shirts on when you go to take off your jacket in a mall, museum, or bar.

I'm fine with cold temps being from the Midwest -10 isn't uncommon but come on don't look like a poorfag

>>2848655
If you stay in a room with high humidity and cool temps, drying socks and shirts can be a big pain. But seeing how much of a shitshow laundry service often is, handwashing makes sense (and it's free).
>>2848603
Three weeks worth of clothes is excessive. Now you're stuck taking a hired car to go even 2 km because your shit's too heavy to carry, too bulky to fit on a crowded metro or city bus. Plus, you know how smelly that sweaty or rain-soaked shirt is going to be after three weeks of waiting in your dirty laundry bag? Stink up the whole goddamn room.

>>2848470
I travel tropical Asia (and other places in summer) with a puffy jacket and one long-sleeve overshirt. Coldest temp I encountered last year was 5° C. Two long pants, no shorts (because I'm not a goddam boomer toorist), and six sets of socks/undies/short sleeve shirts don't take up much extra space.

>>2848682
Button-down over T-shirt underlayer. You really have never done this when it's cool outside? Jesus Krikeys, and you call others a tard.

>>2848682
lol why the fuck would i be in a mall?
bars and museums often have cloakrooms, especially in cold European countries.

A plain white t-shirt works under absolutely anything. Lugging huge winter jackets around is a fucking pain.

>>2848693
>Coldest temp I encountered last year was 5° C.
Do people here not actually like a snowy xmas? Forgot /trv/ is the "yeah I like to trav-GO TO SEA".

>>2848694
Yes cold for me is ~5 to -5F and windy like in Sapporo, Amori, Akita, Seoul for 1-2 months out of the year. Going to need good set of pants, a coat, and shirts to deal with that. An undershirt+tshirt is not going to cut it unless you're bear mode with enough blubber to last.

>>2848461
yeah I have no idea how can you pack for several days with only a carry on, just few pairs of trousers, sweaters, a blazer or jacket, an extra pair of shoes and ideally some free space for souvenirs, thats already a ton of shit to pack.

>>2848705
I travel 8-9 months at a time
>laptop + USBc screen + HDMI(nice to hook up to TV's)
>tablet for backup device if laptop shits itself
>2 cellphones primary w/ banking and work data and phone number/secondary for out and about shit
>2 usb c chargers
>external battery(20kmah) w/ 65w output
>3 pairs of pants
>4 pairs of shorts
>5 t shirts
>3 long sleeves
>5 pairs of boxers
>2 pairs of workout clothes w/ spare shoes
>electric razor/trimmer
>ice tray and spork

I mean I found a good way to save space was through rubber banding rolled up clothes, but so many of the smaller airlines are total dicks if your carry on bulges a bit over the size (fuck you Air Asia).

>>2848461
>one carry one
>one checked
>backpack inside checked for shopping and hikes
Honestly this is perfect for me, plenty of room to bring shit back and I can get two bags to and from the hotel easy enough.

No I just leave my stuff at the airbnb/hotel. If I want to take a 1-2 night trip somewhere I just take my backpack and leave the rest of the stuff at my main base.

The clothes that are dirty for 3 weeks are only the clothes that were worn at the beginning. The average is like 1.5 weeks

>>2848461
What about using a sling pack with some compacted small items? Shampoo, cond I just buy it at the area, not worth the hassle.
Deodorant I use a cream one that I jam pack into 1 to 3x 50ml bottles (they count 100ml max per bottle, but you can still pass with 10x 90ml ones no problem. Go figure.)
Having those thermal suits help out on cloths reduction.
I wear my sweater or tie it around my waist. You can be crafty and put 2 inside each other to look like one and tie them around your waist.
I've always wondered about those backpacks that have a suction function to compress it all, but you'd need a small portable one to make it work.
If you're going to a cold place then you can layer during the flight. Hot places it's thinner clothes.

Fuck snow. I've yet to encounter a snow lover who enjoys sleeping in the snow. No. They all go back to their cozy room heated to 21 C, and then pretend they enjoy the cold. Nigga, you're a joke. I've lived in a car that became a fucking igloo in an April snowstorm in Colorado. I've had to drive around aimlessly just to blast the heat and warm up, because sitting still in the driver's seat was freezing my ass off. Cold is no fun at all for a vagabond.

>>2855147
>sleeping in the snow
NTA but you know there are people who enjoy snowy environments or cold environments. Sleeping in snow is pure retard mode but hiking for some comfy snow pics, snow festivals like the one coming in Hokkaido soon.

I always forget trv is 45% poorfags fooling themselves on travel and 45% SEA coomers with 10% actually going to other countries.

I'm interested in carry on only. I currently only have a 20L rucksack and a 40L frameless backpack and it sucks. I'm looking to create the ideal all-season loadout. I also hate beaches and will not be going to them. These are my choices. Things surrounded in green I do not yet own. Are these good bag choices and is there anything I am missing?

>t-series: based
>gaymer shit
>no boots

>brown trousers on brown shoes
>nothing for the rain
Which resort you staying in?

>>2857530
The pants are water resistant and the grey jacket is a shell. The blue shoes have a waterproof membrane and are my trail shoes. I don't need a hip strap on a 30l bag. There's a bottle pocket on the side of the bag. The things I noticed I missed are an inflatable neck pillow and a packable mid layer down jacket. The pants are olive green and laurel green.

>>2857547
Also my boots would take up too much room and if I wore them on be too annoying at tsa

>>2857550
>no boots
If you're just cityspamming and doing normie shit, it doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

Well it's an airplane carry-on list not a through hike backpacking set up isn't it

>>2857530
>all-season loadout
>anything I'm missing
3 seasons?

>>2857582
What season do you think I'm missing? The left hand pants are cool and have zipper vents. All I really need is a packable down hoodie like a decathalon to go under the shell if I expect it under 10F. Which is extremely rare. I could also add brynje mesh base layers if I really expected anything. As is it tolerates 15-100F for me although I could add a camp collar hemp or linen shirt.

an online store that will make a zip up denim "15 laptop case?

Good morning sir, denim is not good to redeem for the laptop. It is not water resistant. You will need wanting the synthetic.

soft denim laptop cover/case 15"
if you don't know or care, that's cool.
I'm not going to play stupid friend shit you find on other sites.
If you got some info drop it, otherwise we are all fags

>>2848461
Depending on my type of travel I'll bring a backpack and a sling bag (man purse). If I'm going somewhere I intend to do a lot of shopping I'll either bring an empty checked bag which would fit as a carry on, or buy a bag in said destination to fly back with full of shit.

But 9 times out of 10, I bring my North face base camp duffel bag/backpack and a shoulder bag for hikes/full days in the city, keep a rain coat and a puff jacket I side it. Both pack really small.

>>2857769
Wanting a denim laptop sleeve is fucking gay and stupid. t. /fa//g/

Helps out in a pinch and some 20k ones are pretty compact.
>thin sandal and skater shoes
I take 1 pair of sandals and found that skater shoes are really good for majority of things. I got full black ones to avoid showing dirt. Have used them on social, weddings, walking/light hiking around on dirt and snow. That'll save on bag space.
>zip jackets and button up shirts
Saving more space, since it can work with colder and hotter temps easily.
>thin scarf
Can come in handy, you can wrap things with it to compress or hold, when not in use.
>Vicks Vapo Rub
By far the best lip moisturizer that I've used. In dry +40C and -5C worked like a charm, didn't freeze my lips. No cracks, moisturized for hours. The thin tin can one is great for travel. I buy a big tub and just scrap some on to refill the tin.
>thermo shirt/pants
Helps out on reducing sweater amount/space.
