The documents bag looks great. I won't be traveling for at least a few more years and yet I feel VERY compelled to get one. Such 'I Am An Adult And Have My Live Together' vibes!
To clarify: won't be traveling *again* for at least a few more years. Proud to say that I am a light, carry-on only, traveler. When I checked a suitcase going to US, Paris and London it was an empty suitcase for bringing my loot back in. 🤭
I do seven weeks in Thailand with 12 Kilo. I prefer a soft bagpack because it is easier in buses and taxis. Sometimes I take a plastic bag with a clip instead of small bags, it is transparent and lighter. One cloth serves as a scarf, skirt, towel, hat and blanket. It can be a colorful cheap cotton.
One thing that you may/should check with the airline(s) is whether they would have an issue with your keeping an AirTag in your check-in luggage. I flew on JAL out of Hong Kong in early Feb (2023), and the agent at the counter explicitly asked about this and if I had one in the luggage. Not sure how many airlines are like JAL, but just some food for thought.
Totally agree with taking as little as possible when travelling. I travel minimally (for instance, 8 countries in Northern Europe over 6 weeks) with a backpack I carry on. Did you not have to put your liquids in a 1l plastic bag since you did not check in your bag? I keep mine in the lid for easy access through security then transfer into my hanging toiletries bag until my next flight.
@@Raymond.W 🤣🤣🤣 If you are at that age, I am even more excited about my toiletry bag. 🤭 The brand I use is Eco-Dent. I'm also outside the US and found the tooth powder on iHerb. It's basically a bath bomb for your mouth. The main ingredients are citric acid powder and baking soda so, when mixed with some water (or spit), it starts to foam. You can even clean your teeth without a toothbrush, if circumstances are tight. When traveling that means you could carry the little bottle in your backpack and pop in to any restroom (or discreet place to spit) and rinse your mouth. My daughter took the tooth powder to the army and kept the bottle in her breast pocket. She could rinse her mouth out at any time on the way from A to B and it isn't a tube of paste that is going to make a mess if it gets squished and pops in your pocket during maneuvers. She also added some to her canteen regularly to clean it out. She then took it with her when she hiked our country's version of the Appalachian Trail for 3 months. Very useful. Good luck and enjoy the travels!
Even easier than tooth powder are tablets. You use one tablet per brushing. Lush Cosmetics is probably the best known company that makes them. Comes in several flavours.
I love the Muji products but the Muji toothbrush case is too small for any standard Australian toothbrush. Either a children’s toothbrush or Muji branded toothbrush will fit.

@@sarahrosen4985well done!!
Another great video Ray! We are going to use these tips on our next trip for sure.
Where you off to??
@@Raymond.W L.A, then Singapore, then cruise from there to Thailand and Vietnam
Love the mesh bag idea!!

Thank you for posting, my teenager son will soon go on field trip by plane, this is was very helpful!
school field trips are the best, I'm sure he'll have a great time!
The apple AirTag is a great idea, I never considered using it for travel😊😊
Give it a try next time!

Interesting. Is it a security risk?
Nice video Raymond, thanks. The toiletries bag looks great - where can we buy one? The one you use looks ideal.
This one is from Muji. They have two versions I believe.
Informative video. Well filmed. Great job man. Definitely need a few of those items on my next trip... Which also happens to be Thailand haha
Where in Thailand??
@@Raymond.W only Bangkok unfortunately! Wish I could go around more but... Short trip

Sweet toiletries bag!
Tip for toothpaste: use tooth power. Really small bottle, not a 'liquid', also a mouthwash and lasts forever!
Oh I've never heard of tooth powder. Is it available in Canada? Also, I'm at the age now where the toiletry bag is the most exciting part of packing 🙃

Love that converter! Can you please share a link?

You’re right. The case is too small for a standard Colgate toothbrush.
Do you have links to the products in this video?
Which ones are you curious about?
Hi, great video- yes I am also interested in where you got the adaptor or what brand it is that you recommend? Thank you
Toiletries/liquids in a non transparent bag in a carry on luggagge piece? I don‘t think so…
Omg. Pig Island???
