This is a basic RTW relatively minimalist carry on/ Personal item only Packing list, for men.
5 kilograms for the main bag, and another 500 grams or so for your bum bag (left it as 'worn' because you can probably wear it and no-one will give a shit).
Main compartment has 2 x packing cubes, spare lay flat shoes, toiletries kit, puffer jacket and towel. Raincoat lives in the outside stretch mesh pocket for quick access, along with your hoodie when you're not wearing it, and your bum bag containing your electronics (or that can live inside the bag, for extra waterproofing).
Side pocket 1 has your umbrella and flip flops. The other side holds your water bottle - buy as you go.
You'll should have enough space (wearing your trail runners, and fleece jacket plus your jeans or pants) to roll the roll top all the way to the top of the shoulder strap mounting points making it Personal item compliant. When you get to your destination (and want to chill in a pair of shorts) feel free to use the space in the roll top to hold your heavier gear, plus the front mesh or stretch pocket to stuff your hoodie or whatever down in.
