I'm going to travel the US later this year for a month. And I'm a little bit uncertain what kind of backpack I should buy. I've never traveled that long and previously I took a small trolley bag. However, I was always wondering if there's a better alternative. What kind of backpack do you recommend?

I strongly urge you to check out the various "One Bag" and minimalist travel websites. I recently started doing this and found I eliminated a bunch of hassles and weight without losing much of that personal sense of security that comes from lugging around a ton of your crap with you.
