Onebag Travel with Mission Workshop Rhake VX

in ,

I recently had a 3.5 day work trip to North Carolina. I decided to only pack my everyday backpack for the trip (I’ve used it as my onebag for several trips already), my Mission Workshop Rhake VX.

Our things weigh us down and the physical/mental weight of our possessions is especially apparent when traveling. The extra heft taxes your body and slows you down. It’s incredible to pass through an airport with just a comfortable backpack while everyone else rolls their heavy luggage and congregates at baggage claim.

If you are into apparel, I wore the Outlier Injected Linen Pants (amazingly cool in summer heat), Outlier Ramielust Cut One Shirt (also breezy and very cool in humid weather), the Outlier Ramienorth Short Sleeve (a business casual shirt in natural ramie fabric that’s great for summer weather), and the Xero Shoes Z-Trail sandals (my go-to all-purpose sandals)

Car-Free Life: Replacing the Car with a Bicycle

There are a million what-ifs and doubts that may race through your mind before saying goodbye to car ownership. You’ll never have them all covered, but that’s part of the fun. There’s also a long list of reasons why car ownership sucks. You only live once. Why not brave the unknown?

Don’t worry about the unknown: the best artists know that beautiful art will stem from getting lost or wandering off the beaten path and having a journey to find your way back home.
