Women who’ve backpacked long-term, what actually frustrates you about backpacks?

My biggest frustration is that they can be unwieldy if you’re smaller than average. I try not to overpack my 40L Osprey Fairview bag and have it adjusted properly, but I still feel like I’m going to tip over at any moment. I actually wish I had gotten one designed for hiking because they feel better

How do you get down to one bag

I went via an old 40 L duffel bag with British Airlines where 23 kg was allowed. I found out that I didn't need all the stuff I brought with me. However, to be on the safe side I bought a Fairview 40 L. I found out that it was too large, but it's good to check in going home from India with 2,5 kg sp

If you rock a backpack, much does it usually weigh?

Yeah, I highly recommend strength training as well. I'm 52 and only started lifting about ten years ago and it's such a game changer. I'm lucky that the Osprey Fairview 40 fits me like a glove. I've worn it plus the 15l day pack extension plus a small crossbody sling with 15+kg total for miles inclu

Is 40L with the intention to buy quite a bit of souvenirs enough for 3 months in Europe?

Surely you will be taking buses and trains in Europe ? Carrying 55l ( 40 + 15 ) up and down stairs and around city centres isn’t easy, you’d be wise to cut down. It’s not all about flights. As you plan to buy clothes as you go, you could easily take half that amount of clothing. If you plan to wash

Backpack for travel/carr on too

Check out Osprey farpoint/fairview 40L. It’s a travel backpack so it also has a clamshell opening that’s easy to get stuff in/out of like a suitcase. The backpack straps are actually really comfortable so you can walk with your pack fully loaded for longer distances, up stairs, etc. It’s very resili

Best Carry on Luggage in 2026

I love my Osprey Fairview/Farpoint 55. Best carry on bags ever. Walking through the airport hands-free is a fantastic experience. Also, most airlines never force check backpacks.

What are your top Onebag purchases of the year?

Osprey 26+6 - I now consider selling my Fairview 40 that I have used twice.

Women who’ve backpacked long-term, what actually frustrates you about backpacks?

I’ve been travelling full time with a backpack only for over 2 years. I have a 40-litre Osprey Fairview pack. It opens like a clamshell so you can unzip it completely. I roll everything and basically have two layers of rolls down the middle, with my extra stuff along the sides. BUT! I don’t bring ha

Please suggest Orthotic Sandals that fold flat & feel like a cloud to walk on

It sounds like you live these sandals. If space is too tight, maybe there are other things you could downsize instead? For me, I found keeping my bag's weight down to be more challenging than squeezing everything in. That being said, I'm more of a 1.5 bagger. (I have the Osprey Fairview 55, so 40 +

Big carry-on backpacks - how critical is a hip belt?

Not sure how much you're planning to pay for the Deuter, but the osprey farpoint/fairview 40 has an adjustable back that allows it to work for people with lots of different body types. The Deuter has a good harness system but not adjustable, which means it either works for your body or doesn't. With
