Many have asked us the question: What do you actually pack for a world trip? How heavy can the backpack be?
On the recommendation of Pascal's sister N., we agreed on a weight of 12 kg + 2-3 kg carry-on baggage. In the end, we have a weight of:
Pascal's backpack: 12.5 kg
Pascal's carry-on baggage: 2.7 kg
Johanna's backpack: 12.5 kg
Johanna's carry-on baggage: 3.4 kg
For our effective packing list, we followed this website: https://www.geh-mal-reisen.de/weltreise-planen/packliste-weltreise-backpacking-rucksack/
It should be noted here: There is no perfect packing list for the backpack.
Here we show you our packing list for the backpack:
