Traveling is such a common thing nowadays, with the proliferation of cheap airfares and tourist destinations. Even backpacking destinations are starting to be a hit, with information on new exotic places, budget hotels, and unique traveling experiences being shared in web communities dedicated to this topic alone.

Of course if you want to be able to maximize your travel experience (abroad or locally), you have to be able to lighten your load in order to move around more freely. Imagine juggling four different bags while running after a packed bus in rural South Africa! What a hassle indeeed.

Packing light, on the other hand, has a lot of benefits such as saving on the costs of checking-in extra luggage, lessening physical stress, the security of having all your personal belongings accounted for (you only have to watch over one bag!) and of course, peace of mind.

Luckily, packing has been made easier through OneBag.com, a site that specializes in “the art and science of travelling light”. This site is interesting in the sense that it truly delves into the intricacies of packing light. Reading on, I’m sure you’ll be able to pick up a lot of valuable information that you can apply not only when you travel, but in your daily life as well.

The site guides you through the following things: deciding what to pack, which bag to choose, the proper way to pack your things, and even travel-friendly accessories like razors, toiletries, laundry bags and paperwork.

The best part that I got from this site was a guide on how to pack: they even took the time to illustrate each step! It’s genius.
