PACKING TIME! OUR MUST-HAVE TRAVEL EQUIPMENT

Our backpacks
()

Packing is sometimes underrated or not thought through well enough. Remember to be as light and practical as possible, every single kilo will matter on your back, arms and shoulders!

Unless you are going to Iceland, you won’t need a long list of clothes, you can always rely on laundry services, or on local markets to buy new stuff.

OUR MUST-HAVE TRAVEL EQUIPMENT 

We do have some indispensable tools, so let’s see what we have in our list.

CAMERA – CANON EOS 1300D/REBEL T6

We have our handy Canon EOS 1300D to capture thousands of photographs. We use it for pictures mainly, but it can also record great videos.

GO PRO – GO PRO HERO

We switch to our waterproof Go Pro Hero when we are about to have some underwater or rainy adventure, or whenever it is not safe or handy enough to use our Canon camera. Perfect for underwater photos and videos, like when we swam with the whale-sharks in Cebu, Philippines!

MOBILE PHONE – SONY XPERIA XZ

A mobile phone is a must for us, especially to keep our social channels up to date. Still, we are not very keen on splashing 800$ on a trendy device, Edo uses a reliable Sony Xperia XZ that has a great HDR ready camera in case we need a quick snapshot.

POWER BANK – ANKER POWER CORE MINI

A power bank is vital to recharge your devices when there’s no plug sockets. Our Anker Power Core Mini kept our mobile phones going when we were on tiny Pamilacan Island, Philippines, with no electricity!

BACKPACK – DEUTER ACT LITE 40L

Your backpack must be a perfect compromise between capacity and size. Edo has a Deuter Act Lite 40L that was ideal for our travels in Asia. There are bigger versions, but a full 80L backpack will be very heavy on your shoulders!
