So far since I started two years ago, I've done one 3 week tour in France and one 11 day tour in Germany while doing the usual camping stuff (tent, cooking, etc). Is that full-blown touring? My first tour (France) sure felt like it!
Notice you've gone for rear panniers on the front, any reason other than capacity?
Capacity indeed, this frame has no mounts for a rear rack (since it's really an MTB frame). And to stick it to the man by using rear panniers at the front. 🤘

Thanks for the kind words about the bike guys.
