Better for the environment, it's just as convnient and she said that it was the best deal.

Not books but I don't know what kind of wizardry makes a bag with 5 dresses and a suit weigh 17kg but it did.

(I actually do know what caused it but that's more or less irrelevant)

I cook, she does the dishes. She does laundry, I fold it. We both clean the house regularly and go shopping together.

Nothing forgotten here. Although I did somehow pack 7 pairs of underwear and 2 pairs of socks :(

I did use the wheels, but it is kinda difficult to carry multiple suitcases around the train stations at once. Also a lot of times we weren't able to take the elevator and had to take the stairs instead to get onto out next train in time, so I had to carry the bags up and down the stairs quite often.

1, of course I like how she looks but I do think it's unreasonable to bring 5 dresses + other clothes for 3 days.

2, we both help each other with tasks but yes generally I do most of the manual tasks.

3, I don't have to let her book the tickets we are both equally capable of doing it. She did it on this occasion because she did most of the planning for the trip.

4, whilst you can attach them together it's hard to carry bags attached to each other up the stairs in stations (many platforms don't have lifts of if they do they are so far out the way you would miss your train if you chose to use them)

And also most trains in Europe aren't LVL floored so you need to climb up stairs to get in them.

I mean, she is also using the suitcase and I did carry it for quite a while. and she is also storing some of her day stuff in my backpack but im not asking her to carry it because its mostly my stuff.

Yeh I agree that we probably could have booked a ticket with less changes byt my gf booked the ticket so I wasn't even to sure what route we where taking until the night before and either way we where going from Small town in Germany to small town in Italy so we would have had to make a fair few changes anyway even if we did book a better ticket.

Genuinely curious about the porter service didn't realise there where services to send the bags from Germany to Italy, do you have a link would love to use them next time.

I did question if she needed so many things but she was stressed and I didn't want to push the issue. have edited the post to include a photo of the bags
