I know the commom answer to this is backpack, but I got into this debate with my brother recently. He has travelled more than anyone I know all over the globe. He still travels more than anyone I know actually. He's done the backpacking thing and travelled from hostel to hostel not knowing where he will be staying on any given night. He's done this in Europe, Asia, Central and South America all extensively. He originally used a pack, but now swears by luggage with a wheel. He says there is no logical reason to use a pack and the only reason backpackers do it is for the symbol/style of it. He believes that wheeled luggage is infinitely more practical in every imaginable situation with the one exception of strenuous outdoor mountain style hiking. Now, obviously if that is the main point of your trip than this argument has no bearing, but what about for the rest of us? I know what I think, but he is quite a bit more experienced at this than me. Anyone have any input?
