Travel Kit

I often have a hard time choosing, so I generally bring a few cameras with me but only take 1 or 2 with me on any given day, leaving the rest in the room. Usually my D300 and a film camera. My wife generally brings 1 or 2 as well which lets me get away with bringing more than I normally would, but she usually takes the SX-70 or Holga for a different look. My last trip I brought the D300 and a Yashica TLR and my Bessa R system.
 
I am definately a "one trip/one format" person. If I think that I will need to travel light, then 35mm is along. If I will be renting a car and can carry more stuff, then I take medium format. Juggling both with different films for each just seems too much. Sure, I've made the wrong choice now and then, but unless you have a much stronger back than me or want to stash one kit in the car or a hotel room, I'll stick to one format at a time.
