I own two of these Backpacks—Black and Merlot. This bag is beautiful looking and functional. I love all of the safety features. I am a six feet tall, plus size Black Woman, learning to live more of a minimalist traveler life for a 4-day business trip. My plan is to use this pack and perhaps use either my PacSafe crossbody purse or PacSafe briefcase. In a compression cube, I’ll roll fold a travel skirt, travel pants, merino wool long sleeve tee, a travel dressy top, a silk v neck tee and a silk nighty. At the bottom of the pack, I’ll place a pair of Birkenstock clogs. I’ll be wearing a travel skirt, a merino wool top and a pair of light weight merino wool leggings that will also act as my tights. I wear compression socks and pack a pair in the front pockets and 4 pair of travel underwear. I’ll wear an alpaca poncho and a merino wool Dana Xu beautiful scarf. I will wear ortho short booties. I’ll bring my iPad Pro, chargers, and travel Midori with an insert for business notes and a separate insert as my mini journal for the days away. I’ve condensed my toiletries to absolute needs: a bamboo toothbrush and travel tooth paste; sample perfume glass mini bottles filled with oils/liquids I absolutely need. I use a stick of shea butter for moisturizing my legs and body. I have a sample size of Dove soap and my special face wash bar in sample size. I give all of this detail as a way to show how much can fit in this 17L pack along with a purse or brief case for travel. Since airlines…
