As random photoblogs go, the I Am Packed blog may be one of the most random. This photoblog asks people to submit what they are packing into their [suitcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qantas-x-july) to take with them on trips. So far, as you can see, submissions have included photos of a lot of tech -- laptops, cameras, phones, chargers and even an old school Gameboy -- as well as other necessary items, including [passports, wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/passport-luggage) and sunglasses.

As strange as it might sound, however, I Am Packed has a purpose. Founder Adam Bryce, the creator of men's style blog SLAMXHYPE, launched the site to help people pack more effectively and to inspire readers on what and [how to pack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compressible-packing-cubes). As the I Am Packed blog says, "Finding the balance between necessities, showing off in a new city, and leaving space for all your shopping is an art."
