travels light
Brings very little
To travel light is to carry minimal baggage on a journey: I always travel light—just a backpack for a two-week trip.
The phrase extends to anyone who moves through life without accumulating burdens, whether physical possessions or emotional attachments: She travels light, never keeping anything she doesn't need.
