Traveling to and through the west, I really enjoyed the flexibility of my Akara backpack.
Light enough to keep on your back at 30°c, yet spacious enough to keep my laptop, food&drinks for a 8 hour hike and of course, a Nikon D70s, a set of lenses and a tripod.
Check out the scenery as well as the bag!! 
Here’s a video posted by one of our many happy backpackers. A true Akara evangelist if ever there was one!

Cruising along dusty hot coastal roads of Goa,India…. Well not quite cruising as you have to dodge the pot holes and cows that sunbath in the middle of the road!
