They say a Ghurka bag is for life, they don't say it maybe enough for a couple of lifetimes..
I bought my Express #2 from a wonderful gentleman who had used it when he was an engineer. He told me he traveled extensively with it across the globe.
I knew the bag was special to him and so I got into the habit of sending him pictures whenever I took the bag anywhere particularly exciting.
One of these 'exciting places' was on a recent trip to a national park in Kenya. The bag performed remarkably well and I'm sure my friend is happy to see that his trusted Ghurka bag is on its second life still travelling the world.
