I just finished the first week of a three-week trip to Southeast Asia where I am traveling to Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam. This trip is primarily for me to make photographs and videos to add to my Stocksy portfolio<\/a>, create content for my business, and also to explore, become inspired, and do some writing. I may even be able to sneak in some down-time while I’m there. I’m traveling with a small group, but while it’s not a “photography-themed” group I should have a lot of freedom to explore and create my own experiences.<\/p>\n

This will be my first big trip with my Shimoda Explore 40<\/a> so I’m excited to put it through its paces. (Full disclosure: I was given this bag for free from Shimoda Designs.)<\/em> I’ve used it many times on local outings and trips, but never internationally. So far I LOVE this bag and can say that this is the best adventure-style camera bag I have owned. It’s comfortable, the design is well thought out, and they even make it work well people of all shapes, sizes, and genders.<\/p>\n

Overall, I packed fairly light. I’m traveling carry-on only, and for camera gear I decided to go with mostly small lenses for this trip, aside from the FUJINON 55\u2013200mm that I have on loan from Fujifilm. With that said, I still have a fair amount of gear, but I was easily able to pack it into my Shimoda bag.<\/p>\n
