Need Information regarding Backpacking?

Question

I usually travel for fun. But till now i dont have any idea how to pack my bag and what type of back packs should i use. I want to have only one in which i can put some cloths, my laptop, camera, a tripod, gadgets and some documents.

Can any body halp me out with that? I like backpacking.

My best advice would be to buy a side loading backpack rather than a top loading one.  Top loading backpacks are a real nuisance because you have to pull everything out every time you need to get to something at the bottom.  It's worth getting one with wheels too for when you get tired!

  With regards to what to pack, just keep it light.  For backpacking trips you never need too much stuff, so think about what you think you need and halve it!  Also, take a decent first aid kit.  Have fun!
