Thank you! This trip is semi-spontaneous, being able to pack light definitely helps! I don't think I'll every bring a suitcase again if I can get away with a backpack!
Honestly, you packed exactly what you need for a 5-day trip. Me personally, I would’ve packed a lipstick and maybe lipgloss, a mini eyeshadow palette (no brushes I can use my fingers), mascara and an eyelash curler. But seriously your backpack content covers everything else 👍🏼
Thanks for the tip about using base layers. They seem to minimize the need for lots of outfits. I also like how use got all your clothing into the large packing cube. Nice job!
I love the color you got sooo much!! I've never seen that color yet and if I had I would have snagged one up quickly! I love Patagonia and these bags are perfect for Seattle bike commuters
I hope you enjoyed your trip to China and the time you’ve spent with your family. Your video inspired me to get the Black Hole 25 too, and I couldn’t be happier with it. The points you make are spot on: it’s perfect to be used with packing cubes, it’s spacious, and the straps and back panel gives great support, even when it’s fully packed. I really like the vibe of your videos, and although I’m not a minimalist, I’m trying to remove some of the clutter in my life too. Thanks for the inspiration in this and your other vids. Great work!
I really loved too, made me want to travel right now... Maybe this is also because I saw one more video about this subject, very nice minimalist backpacking too: th-cam.com/video/ytLwRW8xEXw/w-d-xo.html

I found the brand , it’s victorinox but they don’t seem to be making it anymore. But u can find nice ones with other brands anyway . Like osprey or eagle creek
Safe travels! Tina I would totally love a video of what kind of clothes you have in your closet! I just moved from west coast to east coast and would love to see your seasonal closet!
I have been traveling a lot for over 30 years. Before 9/11 there were very few travel restrictions - most of us traveled with 27" suitcases, plus giant carry-ons. I had to relearn to travel. I now live out of a 50L backpack. But I need to learn to pack lighter, so I can fit my gimbal ha ha Good job. Why have I never warmed up to packing cubes in a backpack? I have tried... just don't use them... (well, in my suitcase days I did, but not in a backpack). 😎
I'm currently searching for a new backpack and love the black hole, I'm just wondering how tall you are as it seems to be a perfect fit? I'm quite small so I'd be interested if that would be an option for me... Thank you!!
Backpack is better than hard case luggage for more space and less empty weight for the bag. But you'll feel sore carrying it alot on your back if its 7 Or 10kg.
It's Victorinox! It came in a set of a large one (shown in vid) and a slightly smaller one. It was gifted so not sure about the price. Hope that helps :)
She didn’t say how many pairs of underwear she brought. She’s only gone for a few days. There is such a thing as doing laundry too! I think what she brought was perfect.
There is this thing called laundry. Oh, guess where she is going... that's right China! Most likely if she needs anything she can just buy it there since most things are probably made there anyway. It's a 5 day trip, not the end of the world.
And I there I was like, "Wow, she's even bringen her ukulele."
I want to be able to do things like this... I mean pack light and just go!!! Sounds great to me! Hope your trip is the best!

@@TinaTomato Yes! Plus if you're one of the last on the plane, you might get to check your bag for free! My cousin does that lol
Thank you! I watched so many videos claiming to pack light (40L bags) and was very frustrated. This helped a ton. Hope the trip was great.
Awesome Danielle, I'm so glad to know that! ^^
Wow Tina I could never pack this light..good for you wishing you a safe flight. Have a great New Year!
Thanks Nathalie! I had to pack light this time because it's the most busy time in China, but turned out to be just fine :D

Tina...to the point and right on ...Safe journeys
Thank you so much! You helped me decide to swich to a smaller backpack and now I'm taking half as much!! I'll let you know how it goes.
Making me really wonder “why” I’m lugging around so much stuff. Imma go back and rethink my makeup needs. Taking up half my suitcase.
Totally. Me too
I love the color you got sooo much!! I've never seen that color yet and if I had I would have snagged one up quickly! I love Patagonia and these bags are perfect for Seattle bike commuters
Loved your video - i dont wear much makeup either and i think it saves so much space. Very impressed with your minimalism - have a great trip!
Love the minimalist packing/traveling, I picked up the bigger patagonia black hole bag and love it!
Tina, you compactly got all of your items in that case! Very smart and you did a great job!! 👍⭐👍
It's incredible how you managed to pack all those things in the large packing cube. You are a Master of Tetris!
Thanks Glenn 🤓

This backpack color!!! So pretty!
This is great! Patagonia should hire you to sell backpacks!
Love your organization and wonderfully light packing. Well done! I hope you had a fabulous trip.

@@luisabortolidance1518 thanks for the suggestion, he's definitely very good at packing light.
Can this backpack be fitted under airplane chair? Or you need to put it in the overhead cabin
You rock.
I pay way too much money in extra bags
Wow... that's amazing! Safe travels.
Thanks Linda!
What is the name of the packing cube? I have the same backpack and I’m planning on traveling for a month with just one bag.
I found the brand , it’s victorinox but they don’t seem to be making it anymore. But u can find nice ones with other brands anyway . Like osprey or eagle creek
Safe travels! Tina I would totally love a video of what kind of clothes you have in your closet! I just moved from west coast to east coast and would love to see your seasonal closet!
Thank you Crystal! I might find a way to do that 😄 be on the look out for it!
Sweet bag I have the MLC black hole bag its able to hold about two or three weeks of clothes an if it rains you don't worry as much
Have fun, and happy cny!
Thank you johtanoyo!
your backpack looks amazing, i love its beautiful color. Thx for the video, it is really inspiring!
Super concise, I loved the video thank you!
This is what I need!!!5 days in 1 backpack🥺
I’ve done 4 days in my school backpack.
Tina I love how you pack!!! where is the compact towel from? looks very convenient.
Safe travels! Would enjoy some video, if possible, of China!
Thanks David, I'll try!
Love this video. Sooooo useful! Thanks!!!
Have a good trip!
Thanks Rich :D
Thank you for the video. I don’t like using hotel towels either.
Nice job...and got inspired to get the black hole 30l
I just got basically the same bag but they didn't have it in this colour and I wish they had cause it looks so nice! Got a dark blue one instead.
I love your backpack 😍😍
Красивый рюкзяк 👍

Wow thanks for sharing, sounds like a lot have changed! Traveling light is quite enjoyable once you get a hang of it :)
Very well done a a minimalist I travel around the world with a Gregory 28l backpack
This helped me so much! Thank you!!😍
Good review! Thinking of getting this one or the Arbor grande.
What's wrong with hotel towels? :)
Hello! Where you buy the packing cube, si victorinox?
That's it for this video I gotta go
Me - wait wait !! Who gonna upload it
Masterful packing! I love it when everything fits like a glove.
I love your backpack..
I'm currently searching for a new backpack and love the black hole, I'm just wondering how tall you are as it seems to be a perfect fit? I'm quite small so I'd be interested if that would be an option for me... Thank you!!
This is awesome! Just uploaded my own minimalist packing video :) thanks sm for the tips
waw this is a really good and smart video, congrats ;)
This bag is made of recycled materials too, good for the planet. The ziplock bag isn’t necessarily one use, can be washed & used over & over.
Are nail clippers allowed in airport? 🤔
is this backpack suitable for hand luggage?
Backpack is better than hard case luggage for more space and less empty weight for the bag. But you'll feel sore carrying it alot on your back if its 7 Or 10kg.
Yeesh i want that backpack (cause i travel / camp quite often) but is too expensive
Currently, it is down to 90$ and you can get 15% off if you make a new account because first purchase is 15% off to around 86$ after taxes.
Hello! anyone used this backpack for travel? Is it possible to carry under the plane seat? Thank you
Wow that’s impressive! We just bought that backpack and got it delivered today so this is perfect. Can you tell me what packing cube you used?
It's Victorinox! It came in a set of a large one (shown in vid) and a slightly smaller one. It was gifted so not sure about the price. Hope that helps :)
@@TinaTomatoThank you!
I really wish they still made this pack in these colours.. anyone wanting to sell theirs, get in touch ;)
Your bag is so nice I want this bag
How do you get the nail-clippers through security?
I think nail clippers are allowed!
I didn’t realize that, thank you, that makes it easier to travel without checked in luggage, looks so light and breezy.
Great review.
Glad you enjoyed it
CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE THE NAME OR LINK OR THE PACKING CUBE?. nICE VIDEOS
What is a base layer? Leggings and a t-shirt?
Can this laptop fit the 16” Mac?
I like your video :)
i wish it was that easy for me, since I am travelling for 2 events...
Impressive
Why put the toothbrush in a single-use plastic bag instead of using a reusable head cover?
I love ur color.cute
I like the backpack ❤️,, i want buy too
awesome! where can we order that backpack lol :)
Link in the description!
Why didn't you pack another foot wear
Bamboo toothbrush on a ziplock bag....😂
Amanda Berrigan OMG SHES HUMAN CACKCLE CACKLE CACKLE CACKLE.
What kind of backpack is it? Also how many liters is it?
All the details are in the description!
Tina Tomato thanks, it didn’t want to open bc of the many hashtags covering the little down arrow, but I finally managed just now :)
💖💖
😻
Don't forget the power bank
her solution is take one extra outfit lmao
你的包好像得托运，因为那么多液体。最好再准备一个可折叠手袋，以防这种情况发生。
准备了折叠手袋了 😸
nice video
Thank you Allen!
Tina Tomato......😂
Isn’t this just regular packing
One sock? One underwear? Sounds stinky. Way too light.
Okay, 3 socks. Still gross.
She didn’t say how many pairs of underwear she brought. She’s only gone for a few days. There is such a thing as doing laundry too! I think what she brought was perfect.
