Hi, everyone! This is my first post and in August will be my first time backpacking, let alone to Europe. So, I have a few questions...
My backpack doesn't zipper shut. I know you're thinking, WTF YOU CRAZY MORON. I know, but I've also talked to several people who say its actually not that bad. Here, this is my bag:

It has TWO drawstrings, plus a clip top thingie that covers it. It becomes very secure and no one would be able to get into it while I'm in the room, but if my tent got broken into or my hostel room and I wasn't there, then yes thats a problem. I could get some safty pins to put on it to make it even harder to get into? Also, there is a sleeping bag part at the bottom, which I will lock, and some compartments which I may lock, as well.
Am I gonna get robbed????? I really like my pack and I don't want to return it, lots of people agree I'll be fine. I'm travelling in a group with guides, etc. I have 4 nights in hostels and about 19 in tents which we lock. 1 night in overnight train. I am probably going to buy a bike lock.
Sorry, I thought I had more questions, I'll post them when I remember.
