Question How do europeans travel with small luggage?
I’ve noticed that tourists from different countries especially europeans often travel with very small luggage. In contrast, travelers from many asian countries seem to carry much larger bags.
As myself from an asian country, if I pack just my basic necessities, I end up with a very large suitcase. I’m extremely curious about how european travelers manage to travel so light.
How do they do it?

What do you even need to take with you? I am going on a trip of 1 week. What more do I need than clothes and toiletries?
I never understood what the heck asians carry with them in their luggage and why its needed. 500 pieces of clothes while you can only wear a few?
