Travelling is a very exciting and enjoyable activity. You will be thrilled about the destination and the journey. While you are on the way to the spots you want to reach and while you are staying on the places and the accommodations, you will have the things you need with you. You put them inside a bag. Bags are synonymous to travelling. Having taken care of the logistics and the housing, selecting a bag to use is also important.
- Convenience – Criteria for choosing a travelling bag include, aside from durability and style, convenience in both carrying and accessing the things inside. As you transport from place to place and stay in them, you will pull some items out and put them back in. This is especially so you need to use your bag as your “closet.” The accommodation your group may have chosen for some better reasons is one that does not have a closet. This could be possible for adventure type of outings. Sometimes, you would chose to not empty your bag because of time limitation.
- Opening – For the purposes mentioned above, the best bags are those which can be opened wide and still stand. A sling bag with a traversing zipper allows the user to make a big opening that will enable one to search for the things one needs more conveniently without the need to shovel out the items inside. The same is true with a back pack with an extended zipper. You simply open the zipper wide to scan the contents of the bag.
- Outfit – In addition to the functionality of the zippers, the two bags mentioned are also very good for transporting from one destination to another. Each has its own set of advantages. For the sling bag, you will not get your back humid and sweated. Also, you will not get the clothes you are wearing very crumpled.
- Carrying – For the back pack, you will have your arms free. If you need to hold on to other things, you can with more comfort. You may want to buy some things on the way and carry them. It will also be very convenient to hold on handles like the one on bus doors and isles. Back packs also enable you to carry the load more ably because the weight is distributed to the whole surface of your body. You can also do for a sling bag by carrying it across your body and not on one side only.
