Backpacking Forums

The new backpacker forums are full of both experienced travelers offering advice as well as fellow rat race escapees that are looking for some inspiration and brotherhood. The forums are the living heart of our site and there are new backpacking tips posted daily.

Comments on the site have been moved into the backpacking forums to encourage discussion and so things can be found a little easier! It is super-easy to join - no more information is required than to leave a comment on a blog. Plus, we run contests and make announcements via the forums so stay tuned.

You can get country specific advice or just vent about your job and your plans to escape. There isn’t a word of SPAM in the backpacking forums and our strict policy (you get the instant boot) keeps it that way!
