Used this backpack when packing across Europe for 2 months straight, and then on several 5day - 3 week excursions. Great for holding a few changes of clothes, as well as stuff like passport, camera, and necessities. Very comfortable, and the lack of zipper access to the main compartment keeps prying hands out when you're on a crowded train or bus. I kept my wallet, passport, camera, etc... in the pack rather than in my pockets due to my comfortability with its bizarre but secure "flip and clip" closure - nobody will be able to mess with it without you definitely knowing. The pack itself is essentially one big compartment, with some exterior side pockets and a large mesh quick-stash.
