How to pack for 14 days in Scotland in a 35L backpack

If you are anything like me, the thought of packing for 2 full weeks into a single backpack sounds daunting to say the least. I thought so at first too, but then when you consider the hilly aspect of Scotland combined with the cobblestone streets, and suddenly the idea of pulling my fully loaded suitcase up the Royal Mile is enough to make me rethink my life choices. Therefore, I was forced to consider another option… a backpack. But not just ANY backpack, I’m talking a Cotopaxi allpa 35…It’s the Cadillac of packs. And once combined with a great set of compression packing cubes, it is not only achievable, but easy. Yep, I said EASY.
