BACKPACKING ON A SHOE STRING
Backpacking on a shoestring, is the cheapest way to travel the world, discover new and exotic places.
The hard core Backpacker Hitch Hikes the World, off the beaten path, for months on end and carries all they need in their Backpack from Clothing, Maps and Sleeping Bag, they live on their wits, are street wise, careful with money, have an adventurous mind set and are willing to live on the bare minimum and have mastered the art of making friends quickly along the way, they crash in Hostel dorm rooms, camp sites or any cheap digs along the way.
Backpacking does not have to involve caring a heavy backpack, many backpackers, are nimble and swift travellers and take advantage of cheap airfares, hostels and budget Hotels accommodation and are willing to plan ahead. The key to backpacking on a shoestring is to grab the best deals online for flights; transportation, accommodation and hitch hike the rest of the way.
To truly understand the joy and fun in backpacking you have to try it yourself, am not talking about get a backpack and going on a holiday for few days or weeks, am talking about letting yourself go for months and travel the globe I mean of the beaten path |
