I’m all for a fashionable tote, but I adore a good backpack when I travel. I love the versatility of a bag that I can wear wherever my travels take me, be it walking along the streets of Paris or riding a bike through the rolling hills of Vermont. Comfort is crucial, and a backpack ensures even weight distribution. And the convenience of being hands free is key when I travel with my children… all the more true if you’re pushing a stroller or have a little one strapped to you in a carrier!
