Thankfully this video has subtitles

Would love to play the island course with the family during vacation!

Unbound Merino Wool is the best Merino Wool clothes. I have bought a few pieces from them. Their quality is very good. Unbound Merino Wool does not scratch and it’s really soft.

I really would like a comparison of the Tripped Travel Gear Packing Cubes which are compression against the plastic compression you used in this video.

Planning for laundry also helps! (So that you only need a few of anything, clothes-wise). And using compression packing cubes can help with squeezing all of the clothes into a carry-on sized bag too!

The two bags are for different purposes... as you've observed, the Osprey Fairview opens like a suitcase and is meant for urban travel where you're pretty much carrying it from airport to public transit to your hostel or hotel, whereas the Gregory Jade is a hiking / backpacking pack, so it's designed to be comfortable for carrying long distances. So - makes sense to consider how long you'll be wearing it when you choose it!

Love the look of the cubes and you can add more to the cubes by using a vacuum bag for the small space lifted over. More clothes with the organization!

Thanks Rose so much for this video. I have spent so long in the last few weeks trying to figure out a RTW ticket using One World just to find out that I also had too many segments. I think it’s maybe a good option if people want to stop 4/5 times across the world but anymore I think it goes beyond the total mileage allowed 😞 I have chosen in the end to just buy one flight into the country and one out and keep booking as I travel for flexibility now!

I only use vacuum seal bags for winter

If you know physics and have common sense vacuum will win😂

I definitely wasn't expecting you to use MANUAL vacuum bags!

This video brought back a flood of nostalgic memories. I resided on Marco for some eight years after sailing in and meeting who would later become my cherished life companion. She claimed that she was an original pilgrim who negotiated with the Caloosahachie Indians. Sadly she passed away some 3 1/2 years ago. Mary Neale, R.N. 1952-2020.

Beautiful lady. Wow

Don't the plastic compression bags make everything wrinkled?

can you put the cubes into the compression bags so you stay both, compressed and organized?

I fit more rolling the clothes than the compression bags, maybe the bags I used sucked who knows

No need to roll actually Just zip halfway or three quarter Then press on the bag to release the air inside and gradually zip it up!

I just chanced upon your video and was happy to know you were making a comparison which I was also thinking of. I thot of using both too But more so packing unwashed clothing in compressor bags till the next laundry time!!

Lush sudses better because the inclusion of SLS

I just need something that doesn’t break the lid the first time I drop it.

No one wearing any head protection on the mopeds? That Italian restaurant has gone straight down on our list of things to do. The food looks amazing. Great video. Can't wait to visit in September

If you pack the compression bags by standing them up making sort of a flat bottom, you can fold the clothes to fit standing up right from the bottom of the luggage creating somewhat of a rectangle when you are finished. They will usually stack better and hold more versus packing them flat . I use them all the time. It also can be adjusted to fit the compartment that way. It works for me.😊

I am about to become homeless so trying to figure out all i can pack in a back pack

i love the idea of packing clothes but i study in a city where it is -15⁰C during the winter.. this means alot of bulky wooly clothes. thats why cubes arent as efficient when it comes to winter packing!!

I thought i am the only one using vacuum bags for years and always wondered why no one was talking about it 😂

Love your video ❤ May I ask what do you do for living? I would love to travel this way as well, but can not afford not to work. Thank u

I found you testing three rain jackets, then this post. I appreciate your highlights of Charleston too. Thank you! - You haven't posted in 6 months or so, so, I hope you have been having too much fun to do so;) Take good care.

the roll kind never hold the seal.....unless they've improved

I have invested in the Womens Unbound Merino Wool clothing. It’s really soft and I think you wound like it. They also carry a mens line of clothing.

You packed SO badly, the clothes need to be NEATLY and tighly rolled into small and medium cubes not shoved in like rags! compression cubes are better than those storage bags! these clothes using your piss poor packing will look like you slept in your clothes! if you knew how to pack then you be able to use cubes properly! what a useless video!

Planning a trip for November. Thanks for the great information, very helpful to me.

I love my air compression bags - easy to roll and clear so you can see what’s in them. FYI: You could have gotten more air out if you packed clothes flat/stacked, and rolled them on the ground instead of on top of the divider of your suitcase. Need a firm base to push it out! 👍🏼

Are Woolly socks and panties a blend or 100% merino except for some elastane which helps retain shape?

I’m a plastic bag kinda person.

A not so secret hint on hoods an inexpensive tennis visor or ball cap works wonders . The hoods tend to run larger so that if your climbing ,caving or rolling it will accommodate a “brain bucket “helmet . Having a brim from a hat or visor helps improve the experience , I wear glasses and don’t have a wiper in rain , so keeping the spectacles drop free is key . And I just saw the date you have already travelled , I hope you enjoyed the trip and made some good memories .

I want to know more about your planned trip to all those countries!!! Where to and how you’re planning it? This is what I want to do!! I know this is an old video, so you have probably already taken your trip. Any advice?

Compression bags seems so much better for saving space. Only concern is doesn't the vaccuming process crinkle up your clothes if stored for long enough, especially for formal shirts??

When it comes to socks I will never go back to cotton socks. I own several different brands of Merino wool socks such as Farm To Feet, Duckworth, LL Bean, Schnees, Darn Tough, and Smartwool.

You did a great job with this video, you did hit all the key places!

I am a SHEIN bag person 😂😂😂😂

Moving from a southern state to Alaska. This was SO helpful! Thank you

Don’t know if this would work but I think I would do 1 large compression bag for heavier stuff (pants, tops, etc.) then use the smaller cubes for lighter weight clothing and to fill in the gaps. Hopefully that would work and get all clothes in just 1 side of the bag - the other side for shoes, vacuum tool, and misc items. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the awesome video! Definitely something everyone should check out! 🤙

Columbia is the best performer of it all. Lol. Eddie Bauer is trash.

Just found your channel. Love it. Keep them coming

Larry lives in Charleston. We went on a couple of ghost tours a few years back. Had a blast!! A beautiful city.

Have you tried the vaccume bags on your trip did it work ? Did they expand while you was on the plane being high in the air

We had planned to go to South Korea and Japan this summer...well, the world had different plans for us. I look forward to your adventures.

I used a Gregory Zulu 35 (the male version of Jade) as my only pack for a one month traveling in Europe, so i definitely know how it feels like when you try the Jade. Jade and Zulu are the top professional hiking backpacks, they have all the things that you need when going on a hiking. They reduce the feeling of weights. However, they don't really have good space designs for travel stuffs. But Fairview is designed more for traveling. Especially for flights or long way trips on which you can check it easily and use it as a "suitcase" on your shoulder. So on this point they are not the same kind of backpacks.

I feel like you needed to break in the shoes to get the most out of them. How would you say you would rate them now?
