I packed the bag with everything I would need for my trip. This included: a digital camera, voice recorder, mobile phone, PDA, note book and pens, business contacts book, guide book and map, glasses, in other words everything but the ‘kitchen sink’.  

The bag’s exterior holds 4 pockets which all fasten differently; I found them extremely useful for storing odd shaped things like my daily paper, woolen gloves and hat. Being water and stain resistant it the bag kept the contents dry.  

 The interior was quite different from what one usually experiences from such a travel bag, well finished to high specifications. The six internal pockets provide a variety of storage spaces. The handy key hook, proved ideal for securing my mobile. Consequently, there was no need to rummage around the bag when my phone rings.   

The interior space, generously supplied enough room for me to carry a pullover, to wear later and keep me warm as I made my rounds of Brussels on business on what proved to be an extremely cold winter’s night.  

As for future improvements, I would find it very handy if the interior zipped pocket was made of a semi transparent material, so I could see at a glance the contents of that particular pocket. Possible other design features that the Healthy Bag Company should consider are making their bags more easily identifiable from a distance.  

In many cities like London, Paris and Brussels, mass transit has introduced travel passes that can be scanned from a distance. It would be useful if the Healthy Bag Company added a secure pocket to store such travel passes on its exterior.  

For business suits wearers, the Healthy Bag Company provides a solution to the problem of storing all those gadgets we have to carry around today. Their range of bags compliment business suit wearers, by providing a smart bag to hold all ones gadgets. I look forward to the Healthy Bag Company bringing one out in pin stripe.   

Overall, I found wearing the loaded bag on my back extremely comfortable, handy, and kept my gadgets secure, as the Healthy Bag Company promised. I will certainly use it again on my next press trip.
