GEAR THAT MOVES WITH YOU
Luggage
The right luggage keeps you lighter—mentally and physically. These are the bags I trust to handle long airport days, unpredictable transfers, and everything in between. They're well-built, easy to move, and designed for travelers who want function without fuss.
Top Picks
Away Carry-On
This is my go-to for short trips and one-bag travel. It’s lightweight, glides smoothly, and somehow fits more than you’d expect—without looking bulky. Meets carry-on size for most major airlines and comes with a built-in compression system that actually helps.
Why I like it:
Clean design, fits overhead bins with ease
Interior compression and laundry bag = clutch
Durable shell but still lightweight
Away Large Checked Luggage
When you need to check a bag, this one travels well. It’s sleek, tough, and easy to spot. Great for longer ventures or traveling with gear-heavy items. The zippered compartments and compression straps make it easy to stay organized without overpacking.
Why I like it:
Tough exterior without feeling heavy
Effortless rolling—even in busy terminals
Internal layout keeps things tidy under pressure
Peak Design Travel Backpack
Technically a backpack—but good enough to replace a suitcase for some. This thing expands, compresses, and adapts to however you move. Great for those who want the carry-on freedom but might have to wear their gear now and then.
Why I like it:
Minimalist but functional design
Zips open fully like a suitcase
Expandable to 45L and fits carry-on bins when compressed
Luggage Tip
You don’t need a dozen bags—you need one or two you trust. Invest in the right ones now and skip years of frustration.
Other Bags I Love

NOMATIC Collapsible Backpack
This is the bag you toss inside your main bag—until you need it. It folds flat but still has structure, making it a great daypack for hikes, city walks, or quick errands.
Why I like it:
Collapsible and lightweight
Holds its shape when packed
Packs into itself = super space-efficient

A sleek alternative to a chest pack or fanny. Ideal for your phone, passport, keys, and those “I need this right now” items. Great for flying, exploring, or just staying hands-free.
