Vitalik: My 40-liter backpack travel guide

Vitalik Buterin describes the travel setup he has used for nine years of nomadic life, built around a 40-liter Hynes Eagle backpack that holds all his supplies and a laptop bag. He says the guiding principle is minimizing cubic centimeters rather than dollars, and that the approach depends on being a USB-C maximalist, so that one charger and one or two cables cover all devices. He also reports that about 70% of his clothing is from Uniqlo, that layering lets three items cover a wide range of temperatures, and that he changes locations no more than once every seven days to avoid disorientation.
