Hiking Backpack
What is the best make and size of hiking backpack for travelling (for a month in Thailand)?
I'm travelling around Thailand for a month and need to buy a backpack for my travels, not sure wheree to start looking, what size is appropriate, what make is best. I am a student so, obviously do not want to spend too much money on it!
For a month in Thailand you won't need to carry much - so anything around 45 to 55 litres will suffice ...
Karimoor have a 35-50 litre Global that might be ok ...they include a cheap 'n cheerful day pack too.
You want one that is durable, plenty of pockets with 2 sections, and especially good and comfortable on your back in case you are carrying it around all day ...
Also, have a look at good quality second hand ones on eBay ... just make sure the name is good like North Face, Karimoor, Berghaus, Deuter etc!
I would also suggest you ask on the Lonely Planet Thorntree - Gear section ...
Happy Trails
Philip
