there isnt really an advantage to downloading a full node these days as they take up a not so small amount of space. id honestly stick to using lightweight or even online wallets... suprised no one has metions one of the oldest and most trusted online wallent https://www.blockchain.com/ (AKA blockchain.info) id just use them, remeber a good password for both your email address and wallet are esential and dont use the same for both. enable 2FA so any login needs an email conformation too... you pretty much sorte then and can have a neat little moble app if you want to take it with you.

Blockchain.com is an online wallet which is prone to many vulnerabilities like the hacker can even get access to your wallet if they can hack your mobile number if you've set your 2fa through receiving SMS on your mobile. They can also do the punycode attack where they'd just simply show you the exact same page where, without checking the URL, if you input all the info needed to login and even your code and if the hacker is aware of it, say Sayonara to all your coins. I'd personally not use Blockchain these days as they don't show you the privkeys of the addresses you use because they're mostly one-time use sort of addresses being presented there and there's something you should know that you only own your Bitcoins if you own your private keys.
