  • Welcome to the updated version of our ultimate packing list for traveling the world as a digital nomad. View the full list of 80 items for minimalist carry on travel at our website 👉 packhacker.com/packing-list/d...

    This packing list has everything you need to travel the world while working remotely. All the gear has been researched, tested, and stored in the overhead bin of a few airplanes. However, we don’t expect you to buy everything at once and start your digital nomad journey tomorrow.

Packing a carry on bag doesn’t have to be stressful, and we’re here to prove it.

    The rain jacket can be the most important cold weather piece. The wool works incredibly well as insulation if there's no wind. The rain jacket allows the wool to work it's magic.

    I've been making good use of my Heroclip for a few years now, but my latest favorite gear from this list is the Roost V3 laptop stand, which I got thanks to your video on it. I really appreciate its polished design honed over several years and iterations, and I will hope to use it for years to come! It's also kinda fun to just open and shut repeatedly, like a big fidget toy...

  • @DNAtraveling
    @DNAtraveling 2 роки тому +30

    I am a big fan of the channel, and you have some fantastic reviews. I do struggle with this list as after a quick look and run down you are looking at Roughtly £3500, and that's excluding the Laptop and Phone. This isn't an achievable figure for many people and for the most part makes one bag travel seem out of the realm for most... for future videos, it would be great to see low price alternative as I can tell you as someone currently traveling for 2 years, my gear didn't cost that much including all my tech ( as a travel photographer so not cheap stuff). I would rather spend less than a £1000 on gear, and spend the remaining 2500 on the travel. and I know this is a great place to start for most people, but I worry it might scare people off when they look at a t-shirt and it cost that much ( for example). Great video as always thought,.

      Hey D.N.A. Travel! Our intention with this video is to display what we think are some of the best products to pack for long-term travel. As we mention, it's not realistic to buy everything at once, but rather upgrade pieces as one travels and gains experience. Check out our budget packing list on the site and a couple of other budget-focused videos!

      I also wonder about the total weight of those 80 items.

    • @charless.1106
      @charless.1106 Рік тому +1

      Great point. Personally I’ll use this as a guide but pack my bags using my items that fit my own budget and style. You can find less costly alternatives to almost all of this. I use Knack Bags and Goruck (costly bags but I’ll splurge on that) and go less costly on other stuff.

    I love the Field Notes notebook. I never thought I'd find enough need to carry a notebook, but after having one and carrying it every day I use it far more than expected. Video ideas, to-do lists, packing list ideas and ideas for making my own gear! Simply great to be able to jot those down on paper as soon as they enter your head.

    • @PackHacker
      @PackHacker  2 роки тому +2

      Well said, Zach! It's easy to forget how useful a small notebook can be with today's technology, but they come in clutch for traveling.

    Another home-run video by Pack Hacker! :-D So far I can count 9 specific things from the list that I’ve adopted to my travel kit because of PH: Kikkerland travel adapter, Victorinox nail clippers, Matador flatpak soap bar case, crystal deodorant (although I use a different brand), Heroclip, Vapur water bottle, Buff USA wool buff, Smartwool liner gloves, and the Nite ize s-biner microlock. All of them have been great additions!

    Soooo...my favorite ITEM from the Packing List....I gotta go with the Roost Laptop Stand. As someone who uses his like crazy I see the versatility in that design. Plus I LOVE the fact that it folds down to practically nothing!
    My favorite BAG is the Aer Travel Pack 3. My wife uses the Aer system in X-Pac and is a dyed in the wool believer. I used her Aer Travel Pack recently on a trip to Boston....I was in love. I may make the switch to Aer stuff in my rotation and spread the gospel of Aer wherever I go.

    • @PackHacker
      @PackHacker  2 роки тому

      Great choices, John! It's fun to be able to test out new brands and figure out what works best for you. The Roost Stand and Travel Pack 3 are excellent travel companions.

    My favorite piece of gear is the buff because I have it as well and it quite helpful to cut down on wind and adds an external layer. If anyone skis it’s a thin neck gaiter so I immediately saw value in it.

    I have several items that are on the list, but my favorite has to be the Heroclip. It's just so practical and so useful in many situations. As others have mentioned, it is a lifesaver when you need to hang up a bag in a public bathroom.

    Wanted to add another option for the flashlight I have an Olight i1r2 eos you can get a pro version that uses usb-c and is super compact and keychain size. It also has different lumen settings. 🤙🏼 love the videos as always. I don’t airplane travel much but I do a lot of road trips and your videos help me minimize what I carry for those. Love seeing the evolution of what you all recommend to carry. Have a great day!

    The Roost v2 Laptop Stand that I’ve got since 2016 has been a helpful to improve my posture and ergonomic while working with a laptop, and it’s still sturdy to this day. I may upgrade to the v3 once I can find someone in my life that can use my current one.

    My mobile tech setup is very similar! Though I haven't had the opportunity to travel with it yet.
    If you were to swap out your power bank with an Anker Mag Go, you could theoretically remove the lightning cable and the phone tripod if you wanted. Then it becomes a desktop wireless charger for your phone and Airpods. I'd probably also swap the Roost Stand and the Matador Base Layer with a MOFT Sleeve, which is my favorite. I'm also partial to the Waterfield Designs Gear pouch because it can hold my keyboard along with all of my other tech. It might not save space per-say, but I'm a huge fan of the all-in-oneness.
    Lastly, if you're just using the Thunderbolt dock to plug into eithernet, I'd look into a travel router. It's way more secure than plugging directly into someone else's network, and you get more range.
    Obviously, this wouldn't work for everyone, but that kit is my favorite, personally. I don't get to take it much farther than the coffee shop very often, but I have a feeling it will travel well when I have the opportunity.

    My favorite piece of gear in the new list is the Matador Laptop Base Layer, as it is entirely new to me, but it seems like it will solve many concerns I have. I often have to travel on small regional jets for part of my journey, and they occasionally make you check standard carry-on items near the upper size limit due to limited overhead space (and the smaller than usual under-seat space). Thus, I am always afraid that, if I do one bag travel, I will need to figure out how to avoid having my laptop end up in a plane-side checked bag. (So far, it hasn’t happened thankfully.) The Matador base layer will solve that problem for me and I really like that it is water proof too. There are tons of other items on the list that I really like as well, but this is my pick this time around.

    • @PackHacker

    For power cables you should look to rollingsquare the tau is great for emergency power and their inchargex cables are incredible, one cable and every adapter combination built right into that cable.. and each one is a 100watt, capable of charging however fast you wall charger is… they are about to release their newest line, incharge XL….I love anker, use them as my wall charger and power banks, but you can’t beat the rollingsquare family of charging cables….

    I’d recommend the Leatherman Style PS multi-tool. It contains tweezers, the scissors can be used as nail clippers, and it has pliers which I find very helpful when I least expect it. It also has a bottle opener and file/screwdriver thingy.
    It’s crazy small and TSA compliant although some officers may think otherwise. I just think for the amount of functions it offers, it can replace the need to carry 3 or 4 individual tools, saving valuable space.

    Oh come on this is easy. Its the Aer Travel Pack 3 without a doubt. Newly designed I think this thing has a lot to offer. I like the water bottle holder is a little larger. The new zipper placement is going to be a LIFESAFER because I found myself often having to unbuckle the side straps just to open the zipper of the main compartment. Speaking of zippers, NOT a huge fan of the magnetic clips at all. I think a simple buckle would have done well and while I understand where Aer might have been going with this one, to make it more quickly accessible, I think that it falls short of the end goal. With 2 extra liters of room… I can finally bring that 2 liter of Mt Dew I have been saving! Overall, I LOVE the new design and I think this new back will quickly (and sadly) replace the Aer Travel Pack 2 I purchased back in December!
    But let me take a moment to also talk about the Unbound Merino shirts. If you are buying merino wool shirts from anywhere else, you are doing yourself wrong. Unbound is AMAZING. Possibly the softest shirts I have ever worn. I worn one for an entire month straight all the way from Rome to Istanbul and back to Plovdiv. It was pretty rough afterward and did require a lot of perfume and deodorant but you COULD NOT do that with a normal cotton shirt. Also their customer service came in clutch and emailed me about an order with a shift size they noticed didn’t match the rest of my order and I quickly responded and got that fixed. Otherwise it would have been a headache. They get MAD PROPS for that.

    • @PackHacker
      @PackHacker  2 роки тому

    If I have to pick one favorite on the list, it would be the AirPods Pro. I have ADHD, so focusing can be really hard for me, particularly in a noisy environment. The noise cancellation for these is on point, and it lets me focus when I need to, but I can turn it off with a long press if I need to hear what's going on around me - like outside walking to the store. And as an added bonus, the live listen feature is phenomenal. I have tinnitus, so the ability to cancel out background sounds when I'm in a bar with friends is incredible.
    They're tiny, versatile, and work well in the Apple ecosystem, so I can switch pretty seamlessly between my Macbook and my iPhone with no issue. TOTALLY love them.

    AirTags can be great for if you lose your stuff or maybe if an airline loses it, but they don't work for thieves at all. My backpack was stolen recently and the thief was able to use the anti-stalking feature that AirTags have to pretty much immediately disable it. My AirPods were also in the bag, but they were dead so they were no help locating it either.

    65w power adapter will be enough to charge that laptop but just barely especially in use. I understand the need to keep things light but there's a lot more into power adapters and cables than just look and feel. For example, that powerline 3 series is cool, but the speeds are at the level of usb 2.0 so your usb 3.0 ports in your splitter are being capped. The usb c to usb c does offer up to 100w of charging but that doesnt really matter since your brick only provides a max of 65w.
