So I'm leaving soon on my first major trip to Europe. Spent 9 days in a hostel in Scotland on an unexpected work holiday a year ago, but this will be my first one of any substance.
Anyways, my question is around the security of packs in places that don't provide lockers. Naturally all my compact valuables will be on me (passport, money, camera etc) but what to do with my bag if it doesn't fit in a locker, or they're not provided and you're in a small city with little hostel selection. There was no problem in one of the places I was at in Scotland leaving my suitcase under the bed, but then that was just an old suitcase vs. a quality backpack. I'm worried more about the bag then its contents, since frankly the bag is worth twice whats in it. Do you know of anyone who's lost their bag? I've read some people lock them to the bed, but most have straps that can just be undone.
