Then use zip lock bags as double protection for journals, electronics, etc. Not sure how quiet it will be, but they say it's the light way to go.

On my first camino I took a few plastic bags to put in all my stuf, but found myself making a lot of noise with these bags each morning. I did hate myself at those moments as I also hate to be woken up by other early people packing their bag with noise plaxtic bags.
Now I take a few stuff sacks, put nearly everything in it. It gives me no noise, a well organised backpack and they keep things dry as well!
