Why no Backpack

Rolf sees his journey as a real-time experiment in traveling ultra-light, and “a field-test for a more philosophical idea — that what we experience in life is more important than what we bring with us.”

It's amazing that it's so rarely done but stepping out of your comfort zone and travelling super light sounds exciting, being able to get up and leave whenever you wish not having to pack and re pack, check in luggage, the chance of luggage getting lost and the freedom of not having a heavy pack weighing you down.
