At first, I was invited to join this blogging contest held by a famous Indonesian Travel Blogger, but later on found out it was open for Indonesians only. Haha. So to feed the curiosity of the person who invited me about my backpack, I decided to blog about it. For him. Ehem. (#prett I know)
Anybody who has ever traveled with me or chanced upon me during my travels, you might have noticed that I always, and I mean ALWAYS bring a pink backpack with me. It has somewhat become my identity and also the identity of my blog. (Refer to the header of this blog, created by my best buddy @helgaindra)

I have a bigger bag to fit in my 4 to 10 days of daily clothes and toiletries but this pink backpack dates way back to 2007. I bought it in Midvalley for a price nearing RM 300. So it has been with me for almost six years and still counting. :)
The pink bag which I got no name for it has been with me to almost all my local and outbound trips. It is colored pink not because I love that color (my favorite color is BLUE, by the way. Haha). But because it was the ONLY bag in that size being sold at the store. I had no choice but to buy it. And it stayed with me ever since. :P
What I Love About This Bag:
- It has many hidden compartments where I can hid my passport and airline tickets. Money too.
- It has two separators inside it. One for a super-small laptop or ipad. Another for bigger things, maybe extra pair of clothes or a jacket.
- two zipped compartments in the front. One on top where I can grab easy money if I want to buy something in public. One on the bottom to house my gadgets.
- Side pockets, large enough to hold two 600ml mineral waters.
- Two zippers on top so I can secure it with a lock. :P
- And besides, I look hot using it. #eh #apasih

Well.. I don't want to bore you with all my pictures with the backpack during my travels. You should get the idea by now! :P
Oh and the yellow bunny-looking toy in front, I got it from McDonalds, free with a Happy Meal. Hahaha!
So there... that's my story of my backpack. Hoping for many years together, both rain and shine. :)
Tell me about yours please? :P
