    It was such a pleasure seeing how much you love your home and forest garden and have passed it down to the next generation. I will definitely look to stay at your AirBandB someday. Lovely video.

    Nice dresses .. cant see anything as good in UK. I could go with 30l and a daypack but not in winter/summer as asthmatic and need warmer clothes and a lot of meds for longterm travel. I also have to bring any items dont want to throw out or give away as nowhere to leave anything !

    Yes definetly if I was going somewhere that was colder I would need a larger backpack or I would have even less items. Stripping down to necessities or under layers for warmth. In the end everyone's required needs are different but I keep in mind when packing for travel 1 of large each item like top,pants,shoes,hat etc and more of course of underwear. I usually pack assuming I'm keeping everything.
