5. It should be a Rucksack or Suitcase?

Rucksack:- Well rucksacks are awesome for any adventure. They let you trek over gravel, sand, or through rain without a hitch. No more dragging suitcases through mud or upstairs. But, remember, your back carries it all. Pack smart and light, or you'll feel every ounce on those long hikes. Suitcases: Wheels make them a breeze at airports and smooth roads. But hit mud or stairs, and you'll wish for a rucksack. Hard shells offer protection but add weight. Our pick? A wheeled rucksack! It’s suitcase-easy and adventure-ready.

Now that you've got all the best packing tips & tricks, it's time to head off on the adventure of a lifetime! HAVE FUN!!
