r/onebag

Nothing too serious here, but here are two good tips for one-baggers.

1. Don't boast about having carry-on only until the plane is in the air. It's hubris like this which can mean a late, surprise, putting it in the hold.

2. Don't tell anyone else that your clothing is odor resistant, and therefore, you smell ok - I think, like calling yourself attractive, it's for other people to judge such a thing.

That's it. Bags are like Highlanders, there can only be one.

Second long international trip with one bag. Going for 16 days in Japan visiting 5 cities in total and spending a night at an onsen. Weather looks nice and warm in Japan these days so I am packing t-shirts. Mainly staying in hotels so planning to do laundry at some point.

Packing list:

• 2 jeans

• 6 t-shirts

• 1 pair of shorts and 1 old t-shirt for sleeping

• 1 pair of shorts that can function as swimming suit

• 6 pair of underwear

• 6 pair of socks

• 1 pair of sandals

• Camera for photography

• Kindle

• Tech pouch (chargers, power bank, plug adaptors etc.)

• Face masks (if needed)

• Med kit (imodium, paracetamol, ibuprofen, burn gel, plasters)

• Toiletries

• Collapsible day pack

• Shoes (Vans ultra range)

• Glasses case

• Sunglasses

Any suggestions for anything else that might be useful?
