[quote=Anonymous]There's a reddit forum called "HerOneBag" that is specifically discussions targeted to women who travel light.

My recommendations -- a small rollaboard suitcase, a medium sized cross-body purse, and a lightweight packable backpack (e.g. Eddie Bauer does one that's called the Stowaway packable backpack). Use the purse and the suitcase for travel days, and then the backpack for longer excursions

3 pairs of shoes. One pair of sandals that you can walk a mile in and go out to dinner. One pair of walking shoes that will cause you no problems after five miles. One pair that's light, packable and waterproof (like slides or flip flops) that you can toss on to go to the beach.

I pack outfits for 6 days, plus what I'm wearing, plus extra undies. I suggest detergent sheets for sink washes, plus a short length of cord you can hang up to dry your clothes in the shower stall. Quick dry is useful if you need to wash in the evening and pack things the next morning. ExOficio carries  quick dry undies that folks like. Trickier if you'll be taking overnight trains, though.

Get yourself a Turkish towel for beach trips; they fold up very small. A hanging bag for your toiletries, especially if you'll be doing things like trying to shower in tiny bathrooms.

Have a blast![/quote]
