A week is a laundry problem wearing a backpack. Either you wash mid-trip or you bring a cube you will resent.
The list
- Bag — 35–45 L if you are one-bagging. Start at carry-on backpacks.
- Cubes — one clothes cube, one dirty/isolate cube. See packing cubes.
- Clothes — 4–5 shirts, 2 trousers or skirts, 7 underwear, 5–6 socks, one knit, one shell.
- Shoes — wear the heavy pair; pack the light pair only if the trip needs it.
- Toiletries — full 100 ml kit; do not discover liquids rules at the tray.
- Power — adapter + bank from adapters.
- Water — empty bottle through security; see hydration.
This is a field list, not a shop. Swap fabrics for climate; do not add mystery gadgets.
