Personal Item Only Travel | Minimalist Pack With Me | Day Owl Slim

Checked baggage prices are continuing to go up with some carriers recently raising it 15%, which means now is the perfect time to start traveling with only a personal item bag. In this video we'll take a look at a great backpack for three day weekend trips, the Slim Backpack from Day Owl. Check out this pack with me video for minimalist packing inspiration and tips on how to travel lighter with only one bag.

I would add a collapsible silicone water bottle that I could fit a squeeze through travel water filter to process water into your bottle. It could fold down to fit in the same pocket. You never know when a questionable water situation will pop up! This video was so calming, I'm hooked!

I am really happy I stumbled across your channel! Enjoying a cloudy day, relaxing, and just watching with a cup of hot tea haha, great stuff so far!

Like the flatness of this bag, many smaller bags stick out so far, I'd be a hazard... What is the volume of this bag? And if you don't put a water bottle in that compartment, do you get the space back on the inside main compartment?
I always find the clothing interesting because people don't do the math; 3 tops, 2 bottoms gives you 6 outfits, regardless of gender, one thing more makes it good for well over a week (I add a dress), then do laundry. This way, you can travel indefinitely and not just for a long weekend, with the addition of a mid and top layer. I do it simply with a Fjallraven Kanken with plenty of room in 16litres for everything I need for longer trips.

Another great video😊 ❤So relaxing and the music is great. I am a minimalist when packing so I love all of your videos.

Fantastic! There's no feeling quite like traveling light

If you get a convertible travel vest that adds pockets and doubles as an extra bag when needed and a slim fit fanny pack worn as an actual fanny pack through the airport, they both count as apparel and not towards the personal item!

The Day Owl large is my daily bag and I absolutely love it! Never tried minimal travel with it though. Future challenge!

Thanks for a great and calming video. I’m starting to travel personal item only (Kankan 16 l) and as a woman it’s interesting to see how no-nonsense mens’ packing videos can be. For instance, only one pair of pants and shoes! That surprised me.

Lol, not me just using the bag as my lumbar support!

[hoser]

That small and it weighs 2lbs!!? Wow. Beast!

[markholden]

What’s the jazz soundtrack please it’s excellent

[teodorpalacian]

I never take a bottle with me. I simply buy a bottle of water at the destination and then reuse it. I can use the remaining space for other things

The caption brings up checked baggage prices as a reason to go to personal-item travel, but you've packed your toiletries way at the bottom of the bag... how are you dealing with the need to take the liquids out for screening at airport security, and then repacking them quickly to not slow down the screening line?

Does your wife travel as light as you? I’d love to see her packing as well.
