Traveling is a good occasion to improve your photography skills. Just because you will be surrounded by beautiful landscapes all the time without any effort !

That being said, you can check the best photography travel tips we use everywhere in the world :

1. Always be in charged

You need to charge your devices everytime and make your backups everynights

2. Catch the best light early

Get up early and stay late in evening to catch the best light.
It is a common sense now to say that again but it’s still true. And you can have a nice nap during at noon.

3. Respect the rules of third

The rule of thirds is a “rule of thumb” or guideline which applies to the process of composing visual images such as designs, films, paintings, and photographs. The guideline proposes that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally spaced horizontal lines and two equally spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections. Proponents of the technique claim that aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the subject.

4. Find the best spots

Do your own research before and check if the pictures you want to make has not already exist on web.

5. Connect with locals

You will have a lot of adantages to connect with locals to find the best spots and maybe have the opportunity to photography them in their daily life with their permission of course.

How to backpack light ? #backpack #backpacking #backpackinglight #packlessbemore #travel #travellight #minimalim #hiking #trekking #camping


1. Why is it important to travel light ?

1.1 Pay less

The first motivation is to pay the cheapest price for flights. Because you don’t have to pay extra cost if you only have a 7kg bag with a handbag.


1.2 Travel faster

And by taking everything with you on the plane, you don’t have to wait for your luggage when you leave the plane. So you travel faster and you will experience it in other situations: bus trips, transfers….


1.3 Travel safely

It’s easier to take care of and watch your belongings when you have less and are in good shape. Having all the attention you need to watch your belongings is essential when you’re moving a lot and quickly in the heat.


1.4 Avoid unnecessary fatigue

The less we are loaded, the more we avoid unnecessary fatigue when traveling.


2. How to travel light ?

2.1 Adopt ultra backpacking

Backpacking is a style of backpack that emphasizes transporting the lightest and easiest gear possible and safely for a given trip. The basis weight is reduced as safely as possible, although the reduction in the weight of consumables is also applied. (Wiki)

It is obviously an obligation to travel light especially when you are a digital nomad.

Backpacking is above all a state of mind and a way of life


2.2 Become minimalist

Minimalism is a lifestyle that will allow you to backpack light and fast.
The principle is to only have what you use in a week.

How to become a minimalist ?

Take only what you use.
Be versatile: select items of equipment and equipment that serve many different uses.

Choose a small travel bag: from 50 to 60 liters

A mini first aid kit


2.3 Be organized

Organization is the key!

Use sachets and sachets all over your bags

Don’t use too much laundry and wash your clothes yourself. It’s a good way to see if your clothes are light
Keep in mind that you don’t have time to waste


2.4 Learn to be efficient

Invest in technology:

  • no paper books or travel guide, plan to use reading apps like Kindle for example and downloadable travel guides
  • Choose light materials for your clothes and gear: no cotton, linen or other heavy materials that take a long time to dry
  • Possibly buy on the spot: it is difficult to plan when you do not know the places where you are going for the first trip but know that everything is planned for tourists most of the time in all corners of the globe today and that it is sometimes more convenient to buy them on the spot.

5. Be a solo traveler !

I met a lot of people who travel with their entire family in their bag…(70 liters and more…).
As they are constantly connected via messenger everyday and night to their family…mother…, Ex and current girlfriends…, If you travel with your entire family im your backpack…You will not able to be light…!
