XF 23/2 would be my recommendation. Sort of a Swiss Army knife lens to keep the camera small and light.

You have to embrace the fact that you will miss photographs with any kit. The temptation is to drag along too much gear for fear of missing photos. Better to keep the kit simple, make the photos you can, and let the ones you miss pass by. Too much gear and fear of missing this or that photo can undermine the sense if exploration and joy of traveling and experiencing a new part of the world.

cheers,

Matt
