RTW PACKING

Much like the adage in real estate, “Location, location, location”, in packing for a round-the-world trip, the adage, “Size, size, size” applies. And in this case, the smaller the better. If you arrive in a country where you’re only going be staying a few days, but your luggage hasn’t arrived, things are going to get very uncomfortable. And if you’re visiting a string of countries in a short period of time, you will not likely be reunited with your luggage until returning home. For this reason, you’re going to travel with carry-on luggage exclusively that consists of these three and a three-quarter bags:

1) Roll-aboard

One high-quality, international flight-approved size piece of rolling luggage is recommended. Rolling luggage is preferable to a backpack because you will need your back for your daypack. Whether you choose a 2 or 4-wheeled roll-aboard is a matter of your personal preference. Eagle Creek brand is recommended.

2) Daypack

A high-quality smallish “school-sized” backpack. A bag with a hydration system is recommended. You should be able to carry a sweater/jumper, plenty of water, sunscreen, a camera, lunch, snacks, a power bank, and some toiletries at least. Osprey brand recommended.

3) Personal bag

This applies mostly to the ladies, but some might like to have one also. This could a purse or satchel. Something in which to carry personal effects to dinner, etc. No particular brand is recommended.

3 1/2) Secret passport belt

This discreet belt holds your passport, other important documents, and perhaps some cash. It is always tucked out of sight within your waistband. Eagle Creek brand is recommended.

3 3/4) Money belt

A regular belt that goes through the belt loops on your pants, but that has a secret zippered enclosure in which to keep cash and other important documents and very small items. LL Bean brand is recommended.
