Traveling both for work and pleasure, I've struggled to find a sleek, timeless bag that was the right fit. I bought it from the brand many years ago, and several friends have since tried to snag it or buy it from me. This hidden pocket is also the pouch that holds the entire bag, so once you get to your destination and unpack this 30-liter backpack, it folds and zips up into a small square." - three decades of traveling (yes, I'm counting when I was a toddler and carried Barbie roll-ons), I've finally found my perfect one-two travel combo in my Away luggage classic carry-on and my Salvatore Ferragamo Large Batik vintage carry-on tote. It's the perfect place to put your passport, boarding pass, pen, and phone. My favorite part is the hidden interior pocket on the back panel. Which is why my Eddie Bauer Stowaway Packable 30L Pack is perfect! Not only can it easily carry my laptop, magazines, a book, my toiletries, and a packing cube with a change of clothes in the main compartment, I can fit my snacks and face shield in the exterior stretch mesh pocket and a refillable water bottle in one of the two side mesh pockets.

He told me he loved his job and took pride in it. In his ritual, he uses fire and water and smoke, because to him, nature is a totality.Ĥ – David invited me to take his picture. She’s done this since she was 9 years old and has taught it to her daughter to carry on the legacy.Ģ – I watched this poet use his old typewriter to scribe love letters and legal forms for those who ask him.ģ – A local mystic man prays to his deity, asking it to cleanse the lake that he calls home. Here are some moments that caught my attention:ġ – Pascuala hardly notices us as her fingers weave away at her craft. As you might know, I recently made a seasonal move to Latin America. My exploration style now as a traveller/entrepreneur/aspiring local is looking more like just walking around, trying not to miss a thing – with my camera in a daypack and noticing the everyday moments of the space I’m in. I use to be an ordinary backpacker searching the world for amazing experiences. I’ve changed how I travelled so much in the 8 years that I’ve been on the road.
