[quote=Anonymous]Just pack less and do a back pack and a small roller.  There's no other way - you can use compression pouches to pack to save space but from a physics perspective, there's nothing you can do to "lighten the load" in terms of light packing.  You get the smallest bags that you feel can offer the largest capacity and pack the fewest most easily packable things and that's that.  I have considered this many many many times over and tried many many many variations and there's really no magic formula here.

I personally agree with PP who said best to get a regular pack and not a convertible - get a roller.  Get a smaller item that can be a convertible pack however and then you have 3 bags to carry your stuff.  Roller is good but make sure not too large.  Back pack I would get min 32-35L which you can easily find not too large ie diaper bags are great because they are wide with 1000 pockets.  Cotopaxi is good as well.  Make sure the bag is lightweight.  Do laundry at the hotels - don't pack anything as you'll still end up drying clothing which takes time anyway - you can't really win this game - just focus on packing light and washing in the sink/hotel.
