Backpacker Rob Shares His Favorite Travel Experiences
Rob from Lincoln, England, states:
Having my passport confiscated by Slovakian ticket inspectors and having to bribe the police to let me out of the country was a pretty memorable moment. As was waking up on an empty Hungarian train to find that the engine had been uncoupled and was heading off down the track without me. But the beauty and drama of northern Norway and the friendliness of the people of Croatia were the two best parts of the trip.

Backpacker Victoria Shares Her Favorite Foods
Victoria from Alexandria, VA, states:
I don’t know about favorite food, but you certainly have not lived until you have had cassoulet from a can. Or sausage and sauerkraut in a can. Or dried meats, fresh cheese, and a loaf of bread for dinner. Even as gross as some of these things sound, I would not go back in time and eat anything differently. Each experience was unique and I loved every minute of it.

Packing Tips From Backpacker Andre
Andre from Myrtle Beach, SC, states:
I travel light... one small pack is all that I took on the journey. I wish I had brought someone to share the experience with. All I have are my memories and no one that can truly understand what it was that I did. Also, I didn’t take a journal along. I was too young at the time to care for such a thing. So maybe that is what I should have brought with me.
