Hi All,


I don't think of this as off topic exactly, but others may disagree.


I work in one building about 75% of the time. The equipment I use 
regularly includes my work laptop, my braille note taker, and a bunch of 
small bits and pieces, like headsets, microphones, various cables, a 
speaker, etc. I keep all of the small bits and pieces in a medium sized 
duffel bag. When I have to report to a different location, I take this 
duffel bag; I also take a shopping bag with the laptop and its own 
accessories; and I take a drawstring backpack for my lunch and more 
personal odds and ends. This is a lot to carry, and it's heavy and bulky.


I've been thinking about getting a large-ish duffel bag with wheels. I 
could probably fit all my stuff in it, and I wouldn't have to carry 
anything.


My concern is that it would be hard to maneuver in general and that 
towing it would tie up my free hand (i.e., the hand that isn't holding 
the white cane), thus creating little complications, like opening and 
closing doors.


Has anyone here experimented with carrying stuff in a rolling bag? If 
yes, how did it work?


Thanks.


Ciao
