[quote=Anonymous]My go-to way of traveling is a backpack (25 liters) for toiletries, purse, extra layers, and snacks but not filled to the brim. Then a very small roller bag - with two wheels I don't like how the 4 wheeled bags work on uneven surfaces - one that I can easily pick up to put in overheads or pick upstairs. This means that I'm limited in what I can bring and what I can bring back. I usually plan to wear 1 pair of shoes and pack a second. I plan to do laundry while traveling and I don't typically pick up items while traveling. Most of everything I consume while there (Italian food - yum). The suitcase is not expandable. I do a test pack before I leave, and make sure my outfits all work together. The keys for me - are that I can easily and comfortably carry my bags, they can be wheeled over cobblestone streets without issue and I can lift them. The older I've gotten the less I need or bring. When traveling in shoulder seasons - I bring items that can cover various things - a scarf that is usable as a small lap throw or blanket for a picnic in the park/beach. A rollup sunhat or wool cap for colder weather. My biggest goal is I don't want to end up with back problems and I find that many backpack travel bags are terrible on for your shoulders, neck and back. [/quote]
