What's in my 40L Backpack for a Multi-Season Flexible Trip?

I've got a one-way flight to Istanbul at the end of October with NO plans. I don't know how long I'll be gone for or where I'll go. It could be somewhere warm, it could be somewhere cold so I need to make sure I am prepared for everything! Here is what I'm packing into my 40L backpack as well as what is in my electronics bag and bumbag.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these YouTube videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using https://www.backpackingbananas.com/pr...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.
