Hi, can anyone advise me on any particular features to look for when choosing a backpack / rucksack. I won't be carrying camping stuff / bedding. Will probably be in hot and cold parts of Asia.

Thank you!

  1. on top of what the first girl said, bring mosquito net and bug repellent with you... maybe some tablets to purify the water....

    I like the big backpacks i have a 1500cc backpack and I like the ones that have the structure tubing inside the backpack... more comfy that way....

    Some that has lots of pockets so you can organise your stuff and make it easier to find things... one that has an opening in the bottom, middle and top so you dont have to take all your stuff out of your bag to get to the bottom.  I have one with three openings so I know if something is at the bottom i dont have to go digging out.. that is very helpful and less time consuming.


  2. Make sure the backpack is water-proof and well insulated. It is really important that it has a pocket for a water bottle. Make sure the straps have some padding if you are going to be carrying it around a fair amount.

    *And as an added tip for the contents, make sure you always carry a role of toilet paper and a bottle of Purel with you wherever you go.

    Asia is amazing! Have fun :)
