About Backpacker Advice
Welcome to Backpacker Advice, I'm Craig
Backpacker Advice provides first-hand information and tips for people travelling on budget, backpacking around the world, or taking a gap year, sabbatical or career break.
I have spent about 21 months of my life backpacking over 6 continents. This site aims to provide you with practical, first hand advice and experience you need about backpacking and will try to help answer the thousands of questions that budding travellers, such as yourself, have spinning through their head.
I know from experience how daunting it is to be going, to be planning to go or even thinking about going. I want to help answer the questions I struggled to find and dispel some of the myths I read and heard before I went.
This site is about pure enjoyment for me. I love discussing my travels with people and get really excited for people when they tell me they are going. My goal is to inspire people to just go and do it - live your life!, as well as providing more experienced travellers with advice and stories from my experiences.
