I tend to travel with a North Face backpack. I like the idea of always being a light packer. If I am going on a longer trip, I like to take ideas that can be worn multiple ways rather than taking less versatile clothing. On top of that, the North Face backpack I use has many different pockets making it easy to access what I need, when I need it. I have never been one to even think of traveling with rolling luggage, therefore I’d say backpacks are the way to go.
