I can totally relate!! I was never a fan of bringing a rolling suitcase during my travels. I love putting everything in my backpack. I even realized that you can save so much space if you roll all your clothes (it works pretty well for me!) and I make sure to utilize all pockets -- whether it's for candies or change 😂
Rolling suitcase is a nightmare! been there done that. Making tiny burrito baby definitely safe so much spaces and yes, pockets is where you find all sort of Christmas feeling.
