The process of packing a bag is an everyday activity for tourists, where subtle, mundane mobilities overlap with larger global transitions. It is a complex negotiation of a range of spatial qualities and movements that forge relationships between ourselves, the bag, the task at hand and the situation we are within. This book explores the intricacies and relations emerging in the act of packing, drawing on mobilities theory and actor network theory. It shows how these connections forge new ideals, sensations and collective experiences for tourists and reveals the importance of collaborative co-consumption in tourist practices.
