What I packed – Photographer – Asia – 2025

By rosannau / On

Check out my Amazon page for gear that I personally use and products similar to those I pack on my travels (many of which are listed below).

I travelled 42 days through Macau, Hong Kong, China, Mongolia & Taiwan in April-May of 2025. For majority of the trip I was able to get by wearing shorts and tank tops but Mongolia was much cooler. The temperatures ranged from 5-30°C.

Since I was travelling with my family, we ended up purchasing a new luggage at the end of the China portion of the trip. I was able to give them items so my bag had space for Mongolia and Taiwan.
