The only list you'll need tbh
THE COMPLETE SOUTHEAST ASIA PACKING LIST
Bags & Backpacks
I couldn't justify spending hundreds of dollars on my backpacking apparel! These items are on the cheaper side but still quality! Don't let massive brands like Osprey trick you into a $600 bag.
One the most affordable Travel Backpack's I've been able to find that is still quality and ticks all the boxes!
Voyager Travel Backpack from Travelling Packs
1
This is my favourite thing ever. It fits all of my toiletries and accessories and random little extra things in the one place! It's fold out and hanging so super hotel/hostel bathroom friendly.
HangStyle Travel Bag
The locking feature is sooo handy on this one! Also waterproof and easy to carry around on the daily.
SecureCarry Lockable Crossbody
This will change your life. This 8 piece packing cubes set is good quality and will help you keep everything as organised as it can be as a backpacker! Packing cubes are a non-negotiable for me and should be for you too.
PackEase Travel Organiser Set
The SAFEST way to look after your belongings. Namely; I use a money belt for cash, cards, passport and sometimes phone! The strap is adjustable so can be worn around your waist under clothes, or as a crossbody. Either way it's super safe being close ...
Secure Anti-Theft Waist Bag
This one is a no brainer. Separate your dirty clothes from your clean clothes without using plastic garbage bags each time. Save the environment.
WashGuard Mesh Laundry Organiser
Accessories, Toiletries & Extras
IF YOU TAKE ANY OF MY ADVICE LET IT BE THAT YOU BUY THIS WATERBOTTLE! Tap water in SE Asia is unsafe to drink in every case scenario!!! Trust me when I say in the long run buying this purifying water bottle will save you money on constantly buying bo...
LifeStraw Purifying Water Bottle from Amazon
These refillable bottles make life so much easier! I take them from home with my product and top them up along the way from hotels/hostels where I can. Practically no need to buy shampoo, conditioner, or bodywash! Seriously life-changing (and better ...
Refillable Toiletry Tubes & Bottles from Travelling Packs
I repeatedly make the mistakes of never checking the weather before I go out lol but if you've got this little travel umbrella, as I do, it's super easy to go out and avoide getting soaked! These umbrellas also have UV protection so even super sunny ...
UltraSheild Compact Umbrella
Whilst almost all hotels provide towels its unlikely that every hostel you stay at will, so it's important to have your own towel! These travel towels are deisgned to be compact and quick dry so saves space in your backpack! It's also just nice to ha...
Travel Towel from Dock & Bay
Your ultimate backup! If you forget to check the weather and forget your umbrella at least you can find this poncho shoved at the bottom of your crossbody. It's not stylish or ideal but better then being soaking wet <3
Rain Poncho from Amazon
Electronics
A universal travel adapter will save you so much space and money rather than buying one in each country! This one is super compact, easy to use and relatively cheap!
Universal Travel Adapter
As a little bookworm getting myself a Kindle was the best idea ever. You have a library at your fingertips wherever you go - an easy win win for me. I specifically chose the Kindle Paperwhite from Amazon because it was good value, came with an adjust...
Kindle Paperwhite 16GB
Okay this one isn't on the list but it's a really good extra you should consider for your trip ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE SOLO TRAVELLING!! It's a suction grip sticker that goes on the back of your phone and sticks to almost any surface so you can get cute...
PicturePal Sticky Grip from Amazon
This one is a no brainer for any iPhone users. Airtags can be attached to your phone, luggage or literally anything that's important to you and can be tracked from your Find My iPhone. So far I haven't had to use these yet but I'd hate to have my lug...
Apple AirTag from Amazon
