replying to @aandj8804 @aandj8804 since Feb 2014, and yes I presume so, tho for my hike across the UK I had to get a bigger one anyway. I'm still not sure what to do going forward. #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1 #PTTravel Just what I need. If I’m not rents car, I want to travel light. I still have to make a list the week prior to departure

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie I pack too much even though I don’t pack very many things. For example I always pack a pretty dress but don’t always wear it #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie @char_x0 I don't pack medical kits for the UK or for 99% of trips anywhere in the world. You can generally buy whatever you need. There are only a few countries in the world or hikes or trips to very remote rural areas where I would make up a medical kit. #PTTravel

@kate_frankie A4 #PTTravel Trips of a week are routine with just carryon, but I've gone 2 weeks (knowing I could wash clothes).
Over 2 weeks probably need to check luggage, especially if with a friend who wants to eat out, nice restaurants, etc.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A3. Here’s my trusty rucksack for a ‘few days away’. I’ve had it for years and it has enough compartments to separate everything out. #PTTravel

A4 Just a long weekend. I think it is easier to have everything you need when you are travelling somewhere warm #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie I picked up a cheap hard suitcase from Primark a few years back - it's definitely my go to. It great as it's cabin size but I can fit so much in there! #PTTravel

replying to @Txiki_Tales @Txiki_Tales #pttravel Unfortunately, I had to retire the excellent 'Snowgum' shorts I bought in Australia in 1992. So many pockets, it took me 15 minutes to find anything I wanted, sometimes!

A4 For a few days' trip, I tried to get away with a carry-on plus a folded hang-up bag. Of course, those were the days before airlines charged fees for breathing. #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie I took a carry on to China for 2 months and I never felt like I didn't have enough. Although, I did buy clothes there because of the price and how much I loved them. That was hard to fit in the carry on 😅 #PTTravel

replying to @HHLifestyleTrav @HHLifestyleTrav @kate_frankie I don't usually pack a tripod either, but I went to Joshua Tree National Park this summer to photograph the stars, so it was kind of imperative for that. I also tend to leave my laptop at home; too much can happen to kill it. 😳 #pttravel

A3- This wasn't me, but I'm still trying to figure out the back story #PTTravel #travelingsession

A4 #PTTravel I like to use a carry on for delicate things like electronics & things I want to use on the plane. Everything else can go into a small check case including the things you can’t carry on.

replying to @Txiki_Tales @Txiki_Tales Go for it. My dad has one! It’s just more practical than having to ask a partner with a bag to carry stuff for you all the time, and way more comfortable than having bulk swinging round your thighs #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4: We did 8 weeks in the USA & Canada with hand luggage. However, we did take advantage of the cheap clothes shopping, so we did upgrade halfway through to accommodate a new wardrobe! LOL #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Never travelled with just a carry on unless an overnight business trip #pttravel

A2) Essentials would certainly be passport/ identification, phone and charger and any travel converters. Also mini toiletries for hand luggage #PTtravel https://t.co/t7WGxN0qb0

A2 Essential items- passport, money, contact lenses, glasses, sunglasses, phone, charger, kindle, change of clothes, eye pencil, sun tan lotion, facial wipes. Can all fit in a carry on #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4. I think I have done just under a week, but my carry on bags are pretty small. I get annoyed at people bringing huge bags into plane cabins, so I try and keep it compact and try to squeeze them in. #PTTravel

A4. I don't take long trips without a purpose, so I couldn't fit everything I need in a small pack. But I have a 90litre holdall for my sailing trips, and packed everything I needed for a six month trip into that. #pttravel

@aandj8804 @HHLifestyleTrav @kate_frankie I will be in Joshua this October - looking forward to it (driving there).
and YES to tripod for that! #PTTravel

A4 Four days ... and used everything. No hardship with anything I forgot/didn't bring. #PTTravel

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @terryanzur @kate_frankie 57 days is quite a hike! Those must have been some comfortable sandals! (And that must have been an amazing trip!) #pttravel

A4 I've done up to a week in a carry on case which was fine. I had everything I needed. I did a year in my big backpack! You just wash and wear the same stuff. I found I didn't need much at all. Hostels/hotels are so good now that all the facilities are there
HHLifestyleTrav
replying to @aandj8804 @aandj8804 @kate_frankie Haha so true! I take mine on any trip longer than maybe 3-weeks. Shorter than that I can make do, but I like to be able to process my photos and keep blogging while away :-) #PTtravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4. I’ve traveled carry on only for about 20 years. I’ve always felt like I had enough. I love the ease of cruising through airports, train, and subway stations. And no stress of lost luggage. #PTTravel
RTWBarefoot
#pttravel A4: about two and a half months. And yes.
My theory is, if you are away longer than 4 days, you're going to have to wash clothes anyway, therefore as that's the bulk of your luggage, there's no real need in taking more than that.

@Franglais27 Oh baggies !! I forgot to say baggies. I always pack a couple, the large size, protect phone in rain, wet shorts, leftovers from lunch, pieces of fruit, etc. They take up no room empty.
Essential item #PTTravel

A3 We did six nights in Madrid and Valencia earlier this year with hand luggage on easyJet flights - worked fine although we did have to buy ponchos out there due to the lovely Valencian weather #pttravel
