My Most-Used Minimalist Travel Gear Of The Year 2025

Hi, I’m Maggi. I'm a minimalist traveler and share what works (and doesn’t work) for me. Years ago, I left my career, gave up my apartment, and sold most of my things. Since then, I’ve been living out of my carry-on-sized backpack and enjoying a simpler, calmer life on the road. I dislike all those YouTube channels that push products (often without disclosure!) and constantly try to sell me something, so I keep this channel as advertising-free as possible and don’t do sponsorships or paid product placements. I want to be able to honestly share my opinions about things. If you’d like to support me and help fund my travel gear addiction, you can find a link below! Thank you! :)

For me, it's not about traveling with the newest or shiniest things – I don't have room for that in my carry-on backpack. Instead, I prefer gear that works well for me, lasts, and helps me travel lighter. The items I show here are truly what I packed for every trip in 2025. ⫷ PRODUCTS & LINKS ⫸ Disclaimer: Includes Amazon Affiliate links - As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
