I’m traveling from late January to mid May, and I’m planning on doing it with the Osprey Farpoint 55L (40L carry on + 15L daypack as my personal item) and a carry-on sized spinner from Samsonite that I’ll be checking in.

I’ll be going to Japan for 3 weeks, South Korea for 7-10 days, around central Europe, and eventually head down southern Italy and Portugal towards the end.

As winter clothing is bulky and can take up quite a lot of space and the various climates I’ll be in, would you advise me to bring a full sized luggage instead or can I make do with the bags I mentioned? Would love any and all advice and sharing personal experiences.
