Hello:)
I am traveling in Japan for 3 weeks in March(Tokyo 5 days, Hakone 3 days, Kyoto 7 days, Kanazawa 5 days). I have read a lot of posts about difficulty with traveling with backpacks when using public transport(Shinkansen). I originally wanted to travel with a 40 L backpack(is that big enough?) and use that as my suitcase, but is that a bad idea? Should I go out and buy a suitcase instead?
To specify further, it is only when traveling between the destinations that I would be carrying my backpack. For everyday use i will bring af daybag/crossbody bag.
