The search for the perfect bag is over

When you will be traveling for 6 months, using every manner of transport from trains to planes to bicycles, you want your backpack to be just right. Not to big, not to small, have features like being lockable, stowaway straps for those pesky airport conveyor belts etc. Well, 3 bags later we have finally selected the bag for our journey, its 65 liters, so we should be able to carry it on most planes, is lockable, has straps that are both functional and stow away, is very easy to pack/ access and is very light. It is the Osprey Porter 65.

Time will tell if it is actually as good on the road as we think it will be, but it sure does have the right balance of everything we were looking for in a bag.

So this is what those people on the Amazing Race should be using instead of lugging all of those big packs. Did both you and Dan get one?
