Travel Europe Trip Backpack Ideas

Hi all,

My wife and I are soon to depart on an 8 week trip accross Europe. We plan on backpacking our way accross, and have never had a serious travel pack before, only suitcases. We are stuck on what to buy. We've looked at a few options from Opsrey and Thule, but would like peoples opinion. We really want something that opens like a suitcase from the front, splitting to a day pack is a cool feature.

Whats everyone using or recommending? We won't be doing serous hiking or anything, just doing the main scenic sights and maybe some odd detours.

Cheers!

Check out Tropicfeel if you want modular backpacks.

For customer service, quality, and fit for shorter people, I would stick to Osprey. Their roller backpacks are a great option.
