Travel anywhere with only 5 KG of luggage ft @the5kilotraveller | EP VIII

August 01, 2021

Everybody I know travels with a lot of luggage! Most people actually travel with more stuff that will be needed! But now I am proud to say I know somebody who travels with 5 kilos only. Anywhere! No matter a long or a short trip. Her name is Katherine and she shares some really interesting tips on the subject. Also, how she started travelling with only hand luggage, why she keeps doing it and what she learned from it!
=====
Katherine is a 5 Kilo Traveller from New Zealand. She loves to travel, and her passion is teaching people to travel with less luggage (not necessarily 5 kilos or 11 pounds - just less), so people stop struggling with heavy bags.   " I initially travelled with a small bag as I was a solo female traveller and needed to feel safe and confident. Travelling with a small carry-on bag gave me this confidence and security. It also gave me the convenience of sightseeing and not having to lock my bag up somewhere or check-in early. My bag was able to be with me at all times, so I didn’t have to wait for it getting off planes or trains. I could get around very easily on local transport – in China, I got a ride on a scooter to my accommodation - try that with a suitcase!"  "Travelling light makes travel easy and liberating. I have fewer decisions to make. I don’t lose things. Packing and unpacking is easy."
