Do you enjoy traveling and visiting new places? Do you scrimp and save to see the world’s wonders? Is backpacking and a month-long trip your ultimate fantasy?
Whether you do your own research or have it done for you by friends, your first big trip comes with a bag full of advice.
We recommend reading more about Dr. Richard Nahas and Stefan James’ backpacking and travel experiences. You will get many traveling ideas from their adventure stories.
People will tell you many dos and don’ts, but they will leave out the most practical and important points to consider when backpacking in foreign countries.
You don’t have to learn the hard way like many other backpackers.You may place the quality of your backpack at the bottom of your priority list. Thank you later, but this has to be first. When you would be carrying 40 pounds of weight on your shoulders, you can’t settle for a cheap backpack that turns your dream trip into a comedy horror Hollywood flick. Spend a few extra dollars on a sturdy backpack that will support you throughout your backpacking journey without tearing it down.
