best travel backpack image
Q. I'll be studying abroad in europe this fall and am looking for a good travel backpack. I'll be visiting various countries for weekend trips so I need something big enough to hold enough stuff but not so cumbersome that it is difficult to travel with/carry around.
Answer
Eagle Creek has some nice bags....mine's 10 years old and has seen a lot of action without any problems [eaglecreek.com]. They have a lot of models to choose from.
If you're only going on weekend trips, maybe you can get by with a large day pack.
This past autumn, I spent 2 months overseas, and really liked this "secure" daypack that kept my valuables safe. It has a removeable mesh bag that's lockable, the straps have wire in them, etc. This would be also good as a bookbag, etc. during your study term. The price tag is a bit high but it's well made.

I wore it on my back all day [on bus, in metro, in many different crowd situations] without fear that someone was breaking into it and stealing my camera, etc....on the notorious Bus 64 in Rome, train stations, etc.
I wish they had this when I was a student overseas over 20 years ago.

How do people afford to go travelling for months, a year or more soon after finishing uni?

How much money do you need to go travelling / backpacking round Asia / South America / the rest of the world for a few months? And how the hell do so may poor, newly qualified 21yr olds with massive student debts afford to do it??
High school or 3/4yr degre courses. I've seen both.
Answer
Like the song says..."Daddy's money, and Momma's good looks".
It doesn't matter how much you owe, if you're never going to pay it back anyway. Forget about structure. You learn the art of freeloading, and taking advantage of what ever situation you can.
