I'm a big fan of packing cubes, as they transform the contents of your bag from being 20 individual pieces to 4-5 much more manageable sections. They're basically all the same, the only tip I have is to opt for those which open like clamshell (sort of?) like this as opposed to those which are "top loading" like this. I bought something similar to the top loading ones first and didn't really like that I had to dig past other clothes to get to the bottom.

Another tip is to organize your bags based on the demands of your clothes (one bag for cold weather, one for warm weather, one for sleep wear, or something like that) so that you don't have to open every bag to get a shirt from one, pants from another, etc, etc. I'm sure you'll find a system that works for you.

We are a 20 minute drive from the hospital and husband will not leave my side, so I'd like to get everything in. I'm a notorious overpacker, too, but I'd rather have something I don't need than have not have something that I do need.

For my 6 week trip across Europe, I used the Osprey Porter:https://www.amazon.com/Osprey-Porter-Travel-Backpack-46-Liter/dp/B00IMXQ8Z8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1486581651&sr=8-2&keywords=osprey+farpoint+40

I found it cheaper at a local store. It's still carry-on size, which it seems like you're going for. Plus 1 on the winter clothes comment, you're going to appreciate the extra room. I overpacked for my trip (it was my first major backpacking adventure), but for my next one I'm going to bring less and will still be glad to have this bag. Just the right amount of pockets/compartments and space. Travel cubes were also a big help:https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-4-Piece-Packing-Cube-Set/dp/B014VBGUCA/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1486581909&sr=8-6&keywords=travel+cubes
And get yourself some camping soap for washing clothes! One little bottle will last you a long time, you don't need much.

How do you like the Gonex cubes? I'm considering those or these from Amazon.

What did you use for a camera bag?

Have you been on /r/onebag? Handy sub for this stuff. You can travel with far less than you think you need to. Long but hopefully helpful post ahead!

I did a week in Canada (in the cold so with thicker clothes) with a 30 litre backpack. I'm also fat, so my clothes are bigger than realistically they should be too! I got this list of stuff into this Osprey Momentum. The only thing that didn't go in was obvious stuff like jeans as I only took 1 pair, shoes as I only had 1 pair, a hoodie as I only took the one, my belt then the few toiletries we bought when we got there. The rest went into that bag - it was snug but keep in mind my clothes took up more room than they should've done so if you're a wee rake you'll be fine.


I'd take half the stuff and wash it half way through unless you can get 10 days of clothes in your bag rolled up (see below - there's another bit about packing clothes). If you can't be bothered/don't have time to find a laundrette, boxers and trainer socks can be done in the sink/bath in 10 minutes with travel detergent (you can buy it in travel sized containers so you can take it hand luggage - Dr. Bronners is apparently very good and it's all super eco-vegan-peace-fairtrade rated if that's your thing) and with it being warm they'll dry in a few hours if you hang them on the balcony if you've got one. Get it really soapy, scrub them against each other then put them on a laid out towel and roll it tightly to wring out any excess water then hang them over something.


Another tip for packing your clothes - do not fold them! They take up far too much room like that - what you need to do is "Skivvy Roll" your clothes instead. You end up with a burrito of clothes that is easy to grab and you know there's a t-shirt/underwear/socks in one little package. It does mean you need to spend a bit of extra time learning how to do it and it can be a bit fiddly if you haven't done it before, but it saves loads of room and definitely saves you time when you're getting ready. It's a technique used by armed forces and they've got a premium on space as well, so it's about as small a space you'll take up with your clothes. I've got a disability that affects my fine motor control and I can manage it though, so it's not particularly hard it's just learning how to do it. I've converted a few people with it and they're amazed how small stuff packs with it. Packing cubes are also a lifesaver as well as you can split everything up into categories - clothes, gadgets, toiletries and so on. No rummaging around in your bag for stuff - pull out a packing cube and bang, there's your stuff.



Buy your toiletries when you get there - Boots will mug you something rotten and they're only going to be the little travel ones. If you get them when you land then they'll be proper sized, probably half the price and even if you don't use it all then it's not a huge tragedy to bin what's left at the end of the trip. Also means less weight to lug around as well. I tend to use whatever's left during my last shower of the trip though, so I might spend half an hour in the shower just soaping up with huge amounts of everything if I've got loads left but that's just because I'm a bit odd. :|


Try to take some re-hydration tablets though, it's dead easy to not drink enough and end up quite unwell if you're not careful. Heatstroke and sunstroke shouldn't be arsed around with, it's a lot more serious than people think. Also... IMODIUM. You will need them at some point.

Final point (although again, this is because I travel with medication a lot and I have to be on the ball with it if I don't want to be arrested!) - make sure you've got proof from your doctor if you've got any prescribed medication, and only take as much as you need in the proper box/bottle with your name on it. Any prescription drugs (or at least controlled substances) need to be declared at customs once you pass through immigration - but check if what you're prescribed is legal where you're going. Having a UK script for drugs that are illegal in another country doesn't get you a free pass, they'll nick you for drug trafficking and stick a torch up your arse for good measure.
