Day Packs & Travel Bags

After the New Order government rose to power in 1965, the Western world again became entranced with Bali. If an adventure like this is on the cards, pack a lightweight but warm sleeping bag, travel luggage or make like an Aussie and buy yourself a ‘swag' once you've touched down, a canvas with a thin mattress inside that you roll up and carry on your back, used by locals for centuries.
I would totally second what pdhenry and rhianna say (this after lugging, backpack and then over-the-shoulder packs on a couple of trips to Europe and then switching to rolling luggage for several more trips.) At times the cobblestones can be a bit of a problem but not too much, more so are the stairs, but even so the advantages (for me at least) of a rolling luggage are big.

If it's usually a short distance and over fairly well-made ground (e.g. along footpaths), a suitcase with wheels and an extendable handle (to pull it behind you) is best - suitcases allow easier access to clothing, etc, than backpacks and keep clothes less crushed.

Backpacks are a pain in the ass when you are stopping and starting, so much effort to get it on and off your back all the time, instead of just rolling it behind you. Travel backpacks come in a wide range of sizes, typically expressed in liters (the volume).
Front-loading backpacks have a zipper that goes all around the front. It can be done (for example, when walking down steep stairs or a long distance on cobblestone) but for 99% of our travels we never use the backpack function of our wheeled cases. I love my Osprey Farpoint 40. I've used it backpacking twice in Japan.

Quechua bags are not only cheap backpacks but also offer 10-year long warranty for your peace of mind, brought to you by Decathlon Australia. I loved that it could be squished in anywhere but the weight even at 7 kilos was too much finally for carrying any distance and, maybe I'm just wimpy, but I'm happier with a roller bag.
The backpack is great for traveling to somewhat dodgy or adventurous area and the suitcase is for everything else. Mountain Warehouse travel backpacks are available in an extensive range of sizes from large bags for backpacking to small packs perfect for day trips.
