This is my current setup, all contained within the crossbody bag on the left. I’ve had more or less the same stuff, in the same bag, for about three years before, but the zipper on the bag was breaking, so I replaced it. I decided that would be a good time to rethink what I’m carrying.

Currently, that is (clockwise from top left):

  • wallet
  • some spare cash, just in case
  • a microfiber cloth
  • lockpicks and a small box of lock pins (I have a practice lock that I often carry around in case I get bored)
  • bandaids
  • the bag is a Pacsafe GO Crossbody
  • glasses cleaning swabs
  • USB sticks (two with data, one with Ventoy and Linux ISOs)
  • USB C-to-C cable to charge my phone
  • a mechanical pencil
  • keys, on a chain

Now, I’m looking for suggestions as to what else to put in the bag. Its gotta be thin and flat if possible.

My ideas so far are an appropriately sized notebook and a thin pocketknife.

What do you think? Have you got any ideas/suggestions?

    I meant a charging block, I use a small one. I also carry a kiss of life and a ChapStick I don’t really use. I have ditched the emergency blanket. It folds really flat. Maybe I’ll put back in in autumn/winter. I love my skeletool. But any can work, IF it suits your needs. And I carry my earbuds, to block out the noise if needed.
