About two years ago I gave up on lugging around a big checked bag and started 
traveling with only a carry on. I was tired of paying the extra baggage fees, 
waiting for my bag at the carousel, and to be honest, I liked the challenge. 
The first few trips were nerve racking but after I got used to it I never 
looked back! I don't even have one of those fancy new carry-ons with the 
spinning wheels and a bagillion pockets that make it expand so much it barely 
fits in the overhead bin. My primary carry on is an eleven year old roller bag 
I picked up at Costco as part of a set. I usually still manage to bring several 
pairs of shoes though I stick to comfortable ones for big conferences like ALA, 
especially when it's in Chicago.

These are the things I can NOT live without at conferences.. Read more:
