It's crazy to say, but I love this backpack.

I recently returned from a quick trip to Los Angeles. I was there for a location scout for an upcoming production, which I have since wrapped.

I rarely have the opportunity to travel so light, since I'm usually carrying multiple pieces of luggage, full of camera and lighting gear. So I decided to challenge myself to refine my 'One Bag Travel' setup, using my Peak Design 45L Travel Backpack.

One Bag Travel is legit fun!

I've had this backpack for about two years, and I have traveled with it for personal and business purposes numerous times. I also own the Peak Design 30L, which I use as my daily backpack, due to its smaller footprint.

Nothing beats the 45L version for One Bag Travel. It's a beast, and when paired with the Peak Design packing and camera cubes, it fits everything from my Aeropress and travel coffee kit, running shoes, a Canon camera and lens, and all of the clothing and toiletries needed for a trip like this.

It also helps when paired with their official packing and camera cubes, which are made specifically for the dimensions of the travel backpack
