I was thinking something versatile - mainly use in conjunction with a car, but abroad, i.e. compact enough for flights and transportation to the destination.


If you are doing this in conjunction with a car, then the car is your shelter. It is superior to anything else you can carry.

Except for unusual circumstances, you are safer using the car as shelter than walking out.
