How to Perfectly Pack Your Backpack for Travel: My Tips & Tricks
I have been traveling since a while now and I have a few suitcases and backpack for my international trips . It really depends on what I aim doing and where I go. If more urban classy trip I use a Rimowa suitcase 120 litres, but if do a rough hardcore trip I use a backpack. The last few years I used a mix between both : the name is a backpack trolley bag ( a backpack that you can pull and roll on the ground without carrying all the time ) . I have a personal preference for this type, it is very handy, especially for the access as it opens wide, and you don’t have to carry it on your shoulder . But there is disadvantages too, and I will do a complete blog about it later .If you are a newbie traveler, I did an explanation about the difference between suitcases and backpack below !

So, which type of luggage is right for you?
It depends on your individual needs and preferences. If you’re looking for something that’s easy to pack and organize, offers more protection for your belongings, and is more durable, then a suitcase is a good option.
If you’re looking for something that’s more comfortable to wear, offers more flexibility in terms of how you pack your belongings, and is easier to carry around, then a backpack is a good option.
Here are some additional factors to consider when choosing between a suitcase and a backpack:
– Your travel plans : If you’re going to be doing a lot of walking or hiking, then a backpack is a better option. If you’re going to be spending most of your time in cities or taking public transportation, then a suitcase is a better option.
– The weight of your luggage. If you’re going to be packing a lot of heavy items, then a suitcase is a better option. If you’re going to be packing mostly light items, then a backpack is a better option.
If you haven’t chosen yet, please find my explanation below . As written in the intro, if you are looking for a large backpack ( more than 50 litters ) you have the possibility to buy a trolley backpack too ( a backpack that can be pull and roll on the ground without carrying all the time )
