What are your go-to travel essentials when trying to pack light? 🤍
Personal item size back pack xx.
I love me some packing cubes to keep my bag organized!
What are you’re storage solutions for jewelry?
I have to have my packing cubes and pouches. I can travel with just one bag for myself with room for my son's clothes. Frees up an extra bag for his special needs stuff.
Jewelry and scarves to elevate outfits! 😁❤️ One of my several Turkish towels is a new addition to my travel items. 😁❤️
It's crazy how much you can fit in just a personal item! I once packed different tops and skirts for each day of a 5-day trip (normally I'd re-wear bottoms, but I was taking photos) and managed to fit it all in there with packing cubes. So nice to not have to bring a whole suitcase
Oh that’s awesome! With a bit of creativity it’s definitely doable!! 🥰

Q&A ask me questions!!🤎✨
Remember that while packing for Europe it usually is necessary to put ALL of the liquids in the special bag - that includes mascara, eyeliner, liquid lipstick, perfume, everything that has the volume in fluid ounces or milliliters
We have the same rules in the USA. She was either not in the USA, or she was at risk of having her liquids thrown away at the security checkpoint. There are some exceptions for medical products that are liquid, however.
I was thinking the same. I'm currently packing for a trip so packing fluids is on the forefront of my mind. Everything that is not "dry" needs to be in one little TSA approved baggie or it risks getting tossed.
Yes I wanted to say the same thing :)
I find that so many young American UA-camrs totally ignore the liquids rules in their videos that I’m starting to wonder if they even travel at all, or are just “creating content”. Or maybe they are just actually packing for a road trip.
I have never had that issue when flying to Europe…
I recommend wearing socks at the airport for when they ask you to remove your shoes the floor is pretty grimy
Agree.
Got this for a 4 day trip and its sooo good and still alot of space! Love the extra shoes compartment, used it for dirty clothes.

Q&A ask me questions!!🤎✨
You make it look so easy! You've definitely inspired this chronic over-packer!
Awww I love that!!
Ty for this video, flying in 4 days with just a personal item under the seat for a week’s trip😊
Love this so much!!! I’m a bit of a minimal travel packing nerd (been using the TB Synapse 19 for 5+ yrs) and it is SO refreshing to see a fellow 20 something women who does the same! Most of the UA-camrs I’ve found who do this are only men…. And awesome you live in Charlotte as well 😊

Q&A ask me questions!!🤎✨
A Synapse 19 is really minimalist and would fit as a personal item in pretty much all airlines. The backpack loadout in this video is a little large though. Some airlines have tiny dimensions for personal items that have to fit under the seat.
🤩Thanks for sharing your minimalist packing plan! It's very much appreciated!
After watching this I feel like there will hardly ever be a scenario when I will need to pack any other way. So convenient!
Amazing 😀 it's crazy how everything fit into 1 bag. Nicely done ☺️
Honestly there was room to spare too! I definitely could have fit more if I wanted 😅
What size bag did you get? Large or small? I’m flying United and hope they accept the large for the personal item
Love packing videos!! But you not packing a pair of leggings or jeans makes me anxious for the possibility that the weather changes...😂 I once went on a 34-day trip to Japan, traveling around with just a 40L backpack, with some room to spare for some souvenirs I might wanna take home. I love the challenge of packing minimal and only taking the essentials!
I always pack leggings when I'm traveling! They don't take much space and are perfect when it gets cool out or when I decide to do some running haha
true! I would just wear my leggings on the flight. planes get super cold sometimes!
A tip for folding bikinis: Instead of folding the cups and wrapping the bottoms around, I suggest putting them inside, so the cups stay intact. Works with bras as well - like a shell basically
I love these minimal pack with me videos, I love that you only used one bag. That's my goal when traveling even in car traveling. I feel less stressed if I only take as little as I can.
My first time using one bag was on a family trip, it was a week long road trip and I was told there was only going to be a small space for luggage lol so all I took was a tote bag. I manage just fine and had 2 pairs of shoes.
Oh that’s awesome to hear! And I’m totally with you!!
I went to Nashville last year and only took a backpack. It made it so easy to go sightseeing in the time between hotel checkout and my flight later in the evening. I used the city bus to keep travel costs low, so I didn’t really have a convenient place to store luggage. Plus I forgot to pre-check-in for my return flight so there was limited space once I boarded. No problem putting it under the seat!
Fyi. TSA opened my bag and told me things like toothpaste (it happened to be full size-I forgot, so take travel size!) and mascara are considered liquids. I have this backpack in lavender color, and it is great and roomy. Don't take rolling luggage anymore because they always at risk of being checked in if not enough room on plane. I just use this backpack and a fanny back across chest for easy phone/ passport/ essentials access. I always wear socks for travel day because it grosses me out to be barefoot going through security, or seeing it. Lol.
I so love this, Ashlynne. Thanks for the idea. You are truly an inspiration to everyone, especially to people who are fond of organization and decluttering. Keep on posting, please. Stay safe! 💙
Love love love this video! I really enjoyed your previous one-bag travel video, I'm so happy to see an updated version! I just did a one-bag trip to Maine, but could definitely use some of your pieces of advice to update my methodology. Thank you!!
So grateful for this. Heading to Cyprus for 12 days with my parents in just over two weeks. As my Dad's mobility is not great i'm taking a rucksack in the hold and small carry on for additional items in the cabin so i can take care of my parents suitcases as well.

Q&A ask me questions!!🤎✨
It's was so satisfying watching you zip everything up all snug in that bag
duudee I love how your bag fits everything it's so convenient♥️ it's also good to travel light since its cheaper and has less envi impact. Would love to try this. Thanks for the video!
I like that this video focused on the packing and was less than 10 minutes. I'm amazed that you didn't pack more shoes. I love a ballet flat.
Such a good video, with so many “how to videos” out there no one is really thorough with how to execute the parking. Ty!
Just what I needed this week! I am traveling to Washington state next weekend and I wanted to pack light. This is going to make my packing so easy! Thanks Ashlynne, you rock!
Oh I love it!! That’s perfect timing!
Hey Ashlynne,
I also try to pack less when travelling and I love your videos about it. But especially when it comes to travelling by plane I am a little bit surprised how you are getting through the security check without problems. Whenever I travelled it was said that makeup counts as liquids too and your handcream and perfume is a liquid as well. Maybe over there rules are different or I wasn't well informed. Would be great to get some information about it 🙂 Thank you! ❤
I’ve noticed that American airports are far more relaxed about liquid allowance items than Canada. For Americans going outside their borders be sure you can fit perfumes, hand cream, lipglosses in the liquid bag. I saw a traveller from the States hung up in one of our airport security areas having to throw out several items that she couldn’t fit in the liquid bag. She was in tears- having come into Canada with them from the States, now going home. She kept saying that she had been allowed to travel from the States with them.
I noticed this as well, as in the USA you are required to put any type of liquids, gels, pastes, etc. into the clear quart-sized bag. The packing as shown here would not be acceptable at the security check-point.
honestly, every time I travel within the states I just leave all my travel-size liquids in a clear pouch inside my suitcase. I have never been flagged or asked to remove them!
What do you pack for face skincare? That’s always the bulkiest of my toiletries. Moisturizer, SPF, hand sanitizer, and wipes are my essential for any trip.
Yes! I was wanting to know about skincare too! I usually have a good bit to bring with me.
Great video. So many people don’t get that you never have to pay for luggage. So much fits in an under seat bag
I love your packing videos. Especially the backpack ones.
I managed a 2 weeks summer vacation with the same kind of backpack. Only thing that went into my partner's carry on was my snorkeling equipment. 😁
Thank u Ashlynne for all your videos you help me make my crazy life more easy and organized. Without your videos I was a mess and all over the place. I’ve learned a lot from you! Your a blessing! Thank u!
WOW! Ashlynn, I have been obsessively watching packing videos for my upcoming trip to Ireland. I'm so happy that I stumbled upon yours! I love how you get right to the point, show us each individual item of clothing - with links as well - and then show us how you fold them and exactly where you put them in your bag. Your videos are so helpful, so well paced, and so soothing. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us how to pack like a pro.🥰
Thank you for your packing suggestion. I have a suggestion have you tried packing cubes they compact your clothes and gives you a lot more room.
In my daily life the clothing that I wear is maybe 2 different outfits per week, so when I travel I packed thinking the same plus 1 thin jacket in summer for night.
Love seeing packing light bc is totally doable.
Thank you, Ashlynne. So glad I watched your video.
I've been looking - and searched far and wide - for a review with this specific travel backpack.
And the most awesome part is that I will also be traveling for 5 days.
Love this! Pretty much do this now with my normal clothes in a backpack as my personal item. I still have to travel with a suitcase with my regalia as I’m a pow wow dancer. So i can usually get two jingle dresses, one camp dress, the beadwork I plan on dancing in, my turkey feather fan and two sets of moccasins. It all fits into my carryon! No checked baggage! 😁
Watching this while packing for my trip tomorrow to Puerto Rico 🥰 thanks!!!
Oh that’s awesome!! Hope you have an amazing trip! 🥰
Thank you for this! I was recently searching videos for packing on a personal item and this was great!
Oh I love that!!
Turkish towel 👌
That's a great backpack for packing light! Do you have a weight allowance for carry-on luggage? In Australia, our airlines only allow a combined weight of 7kg for carry-on. That's always the trickier part than whether I can fit everything in.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen an airline in the states check it. Often carry-on suitcases have a weight limit, but not backpacks!
I’m not from Australia nor Canada, but as far as I remember while traveling internationally, backpacks and personal carry-ons usually have to fit into this cube. If it fits, then there should be no problem.
This was almost meditative to watch 🤍 Thank you for sharing 🤍
Love your packing videos! So satisfying and motivating to get me to streamline my own packing.
my family is from nags head! hope you enjoyed your trip 🌊🦀
I packed my backpack a few times and had so much in it I couldn't carry it. My husband had to carry mine and I carried his which was lighter. I admire people who can pack so efficiently. I do love my packing cubes for my suitcase.
In Europe this bag would be considered a carryon and not a personal item
Hi Ashlynne! Love this video! Did you get the smaller or larger size of the backpack? :)
I was wondering this too and was scrolling through the comments to see if this question had been asked and answered. The smaller version looks like it would fit Ryanair’s parameters.
@@amiek9226 Hi Amie! I actually ordered both to see - the one she is showing in the video is the updated larger size. Not sure how it would do on Ryan Air, but the larger size worked as a personal item on spirit. :)
Same question! Thank you for answering :)
Beautiful! Great ideas ! I love having zip up bags too to organize belongings!
This reminds me of when I went to London for three days with my family and all of us had a small backpack. It was so hot and we carried the backpack around for half a day. We got Starbucks first thing in the morning on the first day walked half way across London to get to our hotel and then we were off again.
So I looked up this backpack on Amazon and the measurements are too big to qualify for a personal item. Always check your airline’s website before you decide what bag to purchase/bring.
This was so helpful!! Thank you!! I’m planning a trip with just a backpack and this video definitely made me feel better 😅
This is amazing! I immediately bought the backpack, and going to rewatch this video a couple times before my trip to Denmark & Switzerland.
Loved this video! I’m have a couple of weekend trips coming up, so this was super helpful! I was also wondering if you got the small backpack or the large backpack!
I asked the same question as the large seems to exceed the personal item size, at least on the Air Canada website.
I just bought a very similar backpack for an upcoming flight. Boyfriend and i are traveling to a friend’s wedding, and our plan is to share a checked bag (did this for a trip last year and it worked great) and then have our own personal items. I think I’ll use the backpack as my personal item and pack my wedding outfit in it. I’m always so paranoid about my checked bag not reaching my destination lmao.
That's a pretty big personal item. I would think that goes into the overhead.
Love this! Super simple and truly only the essentials. Intentional is the perfect word for it!
Thanks for yet another efficient packing video, Ashlynne! 😁❤️
This is such a versatile backpack wow! So many compartments
We just came back from Canada. We had a great time! Enjoy! Indiana
Such a helpful video. Flying to Toronto next Friday with just a personal item. I always get worried I won't be able to fit my things. 😂😂 This was a great eye opener.
Love ❤️ this Backpack 🎒
Always love your packing videoes! The backpack is so spacious 😍😍
It's so nice to see how simple it is. So inspiring for my next trip.
Such a satisfying video. This is exactly how I pack, and I think I have almost the exact same backpack as you. I'm getting ready to go on a 2 week adventure in Italy/Greece and this bag is all I'm taking. Still need to find a good sleep mask. Some things added to my pack: a mesh laundry bag, a microfiber hair towel, a travel adapter, and a small rechargeable fan. Not bringing a separate camera (phone takes great pics), laptop, or a second bathing suit. I'm hoping to find a cool bikini in Greece.
Wow this was amazing. I as well am a neat organized packer, however I still tend to over pack. This was a great balance. I don’t travel with electronics so my bag should be lighter. Ima save this video as a reminder, stop over packing.
I love watching your packing videos 😍🙌🏼 I would love to see, what is in your make up bag. Have you ever shown it?
this video is so helpful for flying on an airline like spirit! since they charge for a carryon (which is very annoying)
Love this knapsack- looks exactly what I am looking for. I love folding clothes as you do, but for socks & undies I use a small packing cube.
Inside it I also tuck my “sleep kit” and “sewing kit”- 2 tiny pouches and a tiny antique metal pillbox for my earrings.
The sleep kit is a silk eye mask, earplugs & a tiny ziplock with 10 or so melatonin tablets. The sewing kit came from a hotel amenities set.
I got the pill ziplock bag for my sleep kit from a hobby section of the dollar store for beadwork. I use those for supplements and Rx but I always label them clearly using scotch tape you can write on, and a permanent pen marker. A strip of tape on each bag makes a label.
Saves a ton of room. I travel with a paper printout from my pharmacy showing all my Rx with my Rx meds pouch- separate from my vitamins and my sleep kit.
Thank you for inspiring and teaching! I have a short trip coming up and am going to try your method.
Funny, I'm taking this exact backpack with me on my trip, so thanks for the tips 🤍
This blew my mind.
I needed this but I am going nowhere.
Wow, I really enjoy watching this pack video. Love it. It's really inspire me to travel with minimalist packing.
Packing videos are so much fun to watch. Thank you!!
your videos make people feel relaxed and entertained keep going your videos are beautiful 💖💖🍓🥰
Thank you so much!! That’s so sweet! 🥰
What size is the backpack? Large or small?
Great! ❤
Yesss to the lactaid 😆 🎉 beautiful video!
I love your bag,everythingfits in . 😮❤
Bag dimensions, or bag brand name😊 thnx
Good morning Ashlynne happy Thursday morning and I loved your channel and your vlogs is amazing and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
Loveeeee that travel backpack!!! ❤️❤️❤️
your bathing suits are so cute!!💕
Ein tolles Video!! So schön zuzusehen! Und wieviel in diesen Rucksack passt !!!
Your packing is🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nothing to say
Do more videos like this
Where did you get your tank tops from, they are super cute! Also that backpack is awesome!
I loved that you touched / put your shies away at tge end !! 👍👍✨️So many UA-camrs just do it in the middle & not even putting their shoes in separate bags !! Eww ! Lol. Somehow I knew that you're like me that you'd put 'em in separate bags & put in a separate compartment !! Lol 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🎒👝💞
Personal item is the bag that fits under seat. The size of this bag you're packing is called carry on
I have the same backpack! Good to know it can hold so much!
Do you have the small size or large size? I’m not sure which one would fit better under the seat on an airplane!
@@tesslott8375 The description said large. I had no problem fitting it under the seat, BUT I didn't overpack it
@@MsLashun thank you!
I have the same backpack, it’s surprisingly large enough for a week’s worth of clothes.
What brand backpack is this?
Do you have large size or regular one? Thanks!
I would challenge you to try to manage with one swimsuit and only 2 pr shorts..... (5 days, right?). And can you live without the curling iron? What about those shampoo bottles? Even if you wash your hair every day, could you manage with tinier travel containers?... I am trying to figure out how to minimize the volumes of everything I take when I pack.
OH MY GOD I NEED THE BAGGG
Thank you Ashlynne. This is very helpful.
Love your videos? Thank you for sharing your talents.
Wow, that inspired me to pack light. 😁
Hey, such a cool organisations of things. Btw from where did you buy this bag?? Loved your video
