Flying with Iberia, can I carry both a piece of hand-luggage and a backpack?

Hand-Luggage Restrictions
The amount of hand-luggage you can carry on-board depends on your ticket fare, and is likely to be written on your confirmation email, or even on your e-ticket. If your allowance is the one you linked, then quoting from the website:
What else can I take on board besides the permitted baggage items?
- A handbag or small briefcase.
- A laptop computer or camera.
- A baby bag with food, drink and materials for the flight.
This means that you can have your 56cm x 45cm x 25cm piece of hand luggage, and a small other bag. The key here is in the size. If you try to cary both a suitcase and a backpack you will likely be asked to check-in the suitcase. My advice is therefore to use the smallest backpack you can find, and claim that it is a laptop bag, and no more. To be honest I think that a lady's hand-bag will also do the trick. The idea here is that you want the bag to be small enough so as not to be considered as another piece of hand-luggage.
Carrying Your Passport
Arguably the question on how to safely carry your passport whilst travelling should be asked on its own. The reason is that there are a ton of tips and tricks one could come up with, and it could make for an excellent Travel question. Having said this, I personally always carry my passport on me when travelling. I never put it in a bag, simply because I think that pickpocketing from a bag is somewhat easier than pickpocketing from a trouser front pocket.
If you decide to carry the passport in your bag, make sure you never leave your bag unattended, and always keep it with you at all times (man I sound just like those security announcements at Heathrow :D).
Having said this I wouldn't worry too much about these things. I understand this might be your first solo-travel experince. However keep in mind that travelling alone is perfectly normal, and that with a bit of caution and awareness you'll have amazing problem-free time.
