Competition Time.
It’s competition time again, and just in time for Christmas too! I’ve teamed up with the awesome team at ROLO and I am really excited to be able to give three of you the chance to win one of these amazing travel bags worth $49.99!
The ROLO travel bag is a fantastic new travel accessory that can be used as a clothes organiser or a compression bag in a main pack or a standalone carry on bag. It is essentially a portable wardrobe that can hang anywhere you are laying your head for easy access to your stuff, then simply rolled up and carried as a small bag for shorter day trips or as part of a larger pack for longer expeditions!
You can check out my review of the bag itself here. I think it is a great addition to any backpackers travel arsenal, perfect for a short break or day trip. Judging from the interest the review gets a lot of you seem to like it too so I am really excited to be able to offer this competition to you. After all without all of you readership and continued support this site wouldn’t be here!

I’d love to take the ROLO bag with me when I go to stay in Australia with my friend next year. Will make more room for pressies!
great bag for family trips
To vist my brother in Cornwall
Mini would be London
I’d love to have a Rolo travel bag ready for the next snowstorm in Buffalo. Being snow bound is a cray bad experience, but the travel bag sure would come in handy to carry warm clothing, extra gloves and socks, first aid supplies and medicines in case we have to trek over 7 ft. mountains of snow to reach those trapped in cars and homes.
I fancy doing a couple of weeks city hopping in Europe next Spring.
I would love it for my trek around Yorkshire
Amsterdam
Ireland
a London trip
would have to Paris
To take on holidays
Pisa
To a close friend 15 minutes outside of Malaga
I’d take it for my weekend break in Ireland
These are amazing! I’d take mine when I go camping, glamping and to the weekend break to York I am going to soon.
Mine would be camping in Scotland
It would be great for a long weekend in Edinburgh
I would love one. I would love to go to Australia and see my brother there.
This would be perfect for a short trip to Amsterdam, a city I’d love to visit.
