Backpacking
Backpacking needs hard wearing luggage that won’t let you down
Backpacking at its finest. This has wheels, which means that you can use it as a wheelie suitcase if you want.
I did that when travelling around Tanzania and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Sojourn™ Wheeled Travel Pack 28"/80L
This was brilliant when I was travelling around India. It is a great way to secure your bag from opportunists.
Easy to use and lightweight.
Pacsafe® 55L anti-theft backpack & bag protector
Rain happens. We don’t want it to but there are times when the heavens open and all we can do is try to stay as dry as possible.
This rain cover is great for adding a layer of protection for your backpack, because you will definitely be travelling ...
Trekking Basic Rain Cover for Backpack - 40/60L | Decathlon
Kids
Great luggage for your little traveller
This is an absolute stalwart. We trawl this with us for all family trips. It can go as cabin baggage stowed underneath the seat and perfect for bringing all the toys and activities that little ones need.

Suitcases
Suitcases that work for me
I love Kipling bags, but they actually started out as a luggage company.
I have a small wheelie carry on which has been great when travelling for business
DARCEY S | Small Cabin Size Wheeled Duffle
I love my Mickey Mouse suitcase by American Tourister. It’s easy to spot on a luggage carousel. Sturdy but lightweight it works great for travelling near or far
Mickey Mouse Suitcases | Disney Luggage by American Tourister
Our Antler suitcase has lasted us forever and is still going strong.

Things that work for all types of travel
Doesn’t matter what type of trip you’re taking, these items will be useful
These are great for any type of travel. I used them when backpacking. Great for organising all my stuff into different bits and pieces but also brilliant for separating things like dirty laundry.
Packing Cubes & Travel Accessories
I love these. Perfect for wherever you are. They hold lots and carry a decent weight. Perfect for adding an extra bag if you need it without having to take up too much space in your luggage
Backpacks – Eco Chic Retail Ltd
Not the most exciting item but useful.
No one wants to pay overweight luggage fees, this is a great way to check that you are within your allowance
Digital Luggage Scales
Brilliant to maximise your luggage space. These compression packs let you shrink down your luggage to fit more in less
10Pack KFYM Travel Space Saver Bags, Reusable
Simple but essential. TSA approved locks mean that you won’t lose your luggage security if the bag needs to be searched by the authorities.
I know from experience that have a lock cut off isn’t the best when you want your bag to be secure.
TSA Big Wheel Padlock
Another way of making your luggage easy to spot at the airport.
Lightweight to carry with you on your travels, but simple enough for it to be found
Embroidered TSA Approved Luggage Strap
