I was thinking of bringing the pacsafe, I'm paranoid about those things. I'd recommend a MSR Packtowl UltraLite for towels as they are tiny packed and absorb so much when spread out. My first trip is Asia as you know, I'll let you know how to goes, It will be part of my new blog soon. What do you do to lock your zippers up? I'm not worried if I use a pacsafe for zippers and stuff being taken out of my bag, but if I don't use a pacsafe, how do you lock the zippers up? Luggage locks?
