   We took a wheeled suitcase and a large bag (holdall no wheels) for our 3 wk holiday. Ended up buying another suitcase to replace the hold-all as it was just too heavy and cumbersome. Suitcase is easy as you use grabs and don’t need to wheel it to far

   My back can’t handle a backpack anymore… I always take a roller suitcase and have not had any problems at all!

   I fly, drop my suitcase at the hotel and carry on with my day. I’ve done both countries and the only time it was annoying, it was in old towns like fenghuang but even that was like a 5 min walk (and the hotel owners helped me so it wasn’t that bad)
