Backpacking Destinations
As a backpacker with a long trip ahead, the world offers endless choice as to where to go and what to see.
Some countries may seem more daunting than others. Westernized countries will obviously be the "easiest" to backpack through, particularly the English speaking ones like Australia or New Zealand.
Asian countries raise concerns about the language barrier, culture shock, food etc - but don't be put off, these are challenges which make your trip much more rewarding.
Sampling new cultures is what backpacking is all about!
