In this video, we take you behind the scenes of international traveling as a family. International family travel involves traveling to different countries or destinations with your family, creating cherished memories and broadening horizons. For our 5-week trip, efficient packing is crucial. We opt for versatile clothing, consider weather variations, and pack essentials like toiletries, medications, and travel documents. We prefer carry-on backpacks, ensuring convenience and avoiding checked baggage delays. Backpacks also allow us to go hands-free so we can help the kids.
World travel with kids requires extra planning, but shouldnโt deter you from planning adventures. We let the kids pack their own bags, so they can bring their favorite toys, games, and comfort items to ease transitions. Our only rule is that they have to be able to carry them. We always pack snacks and water bottles to manage hunger along the way. We prioritize lightweight gear, to travel light with kids and make the journey enjoyable for everyone. It definitely gets easier once they can carry their own bags (Forest isnโt there, yet). Watch the entire video to find out where we are going over the next 5 weeks!

ABOUT US
We are the Bags Packed Family: Jonathan and Kelly with our three children. We sold our home in Alaska, USA, eight years ago, and headed overseas. We are teachers and found fantastic teaching positions in Chennai, India. Two years later, we moved to the United Arab Emirates. Three years after that, during the beginning of the pandemic, we made the move to our current teaching jobs in Indonesia. We love traveling and finding adventures as a family. We hope that our travels will inspire and provide our children with the confidence to meet new people, try new foods, and enjoy learning a new language. We hope our vlogs will inspire you to get out and travel, too!

Greetings from Surabaya ๐
Your videos always make me feel like I'm learning something new and interesting.
nice job daddy jon & mommy kelly! you can speak bahasa indonesia very well! in surabaya martabak is another fried dish (google it), instead the cake called terang bulan. forest is so smart! nice tips! keep update!
โจThanks for sharing this video on how your family does efficient packing.โจ Hi again, bags pack family!! Ini Kuching, Sarawak we called you guys fav desert (murtabak) " Apam Balik". The "spicy chicken" that Jonathan had with the green veg in it is actually the leaves of the tumeric root which we called "daun kunyit". And the seeds you guys saw in the sambal is called "asam jawa". It is used to add the sourness to a dish. Since Kelly is a vegetarian I recommend her to try another kind of sambal called " sambal petai". I think they have that in Indonesia.I can't help noticed that you guys like "kicap manis". There is another version of kicap manis but spicy and is called "kicap pedas". Overall I enjoyed watching your vlogs and I cant wait to see you soon.
Hugs from Kuching, Sarawak.โค
Can't wait to watch you video in America
