If you’re staying in a luxurious Thai resort hotel for a couple of months, you can probably bring five pairs of shoes and your shiny new macbook without too much trouble – less so if you’re spending six months backpacking through rural India.
If you prefer to keep moving, changing locations every few days and using public transport, you’ll want a smallish backpack and comfortable shoes. If you prefer slow travel (as I do), stay in each location for three months or more and rent apartments as you go, then bringing a small suitcase along really isn’t much of a problem.
Or of course you could try a mix of the two! Variety is, after all, the spice of life and as a digital nomad you’re free to indulge your whims and go with the flow.
