traveling with the r50

i recently bought the canon r50 with the kit lens. next week i’m going on a trip and obviously i want to bring my camera with. is it ok if i carry it inside my backpack while traveling? i don’t have a camera bag or any cube to put it inside but im thinking it’s gonna be okay inside the backpack and i could even wrap it in a t-shirt for some extra safety. also, how do you carry your camera around while exploring a city without looking like a tourist? do you keep it on your neck or in a bag and take it out whenever you want to take a photo or what?
