Minimalism as a lifestyle can be extended to trips, and how you prepare for them. Thus our backpack can follow such guidelines. Be your trip short or long, what you carry with you is of the utmost importance.
On this video I'll show how to prepare you backpack to carry only the essentials, which brings the benefit of freedom when you're travelling.
As mentioned, the key point is to always questions yourself "is this essential?". If not, then it should not come along. For my 28 days backpacking trip to Europe I only took with me three outfits (counting the one I was wearing). If you're doing the same, this means that you should take special attention when choosing said outfits. Their fabric should be good, with a special consideration to the time needed to dry. Also, basic looks are nice, since they allow you the possibility to be relatively well dressed in every situation.
It's not because you're travelling that you can't look reasonably presentable.
The other things will depend on your needs, and where you're travelling. If you're not going to stay in a hotel, a towel is a must have. I took with me a face one, since it's smaller. Gadgets that you enjoy are also an important thing to carry.
To be able to travel with such a limited amount of things is something nice, and I myself am proud of being able to do it. This, plus the fact that it was genuinely fun.
