Welcome to backpack life - the creative travel community.

I decided to make this site because I had been to so many great places, seen so many amazing things and met so many fantastic people that it seems so sad to keep it all to myself. If you have been travelling and feel the same way I do, I think you'd agree that one of the greatest things about travel is meeting other people and sharing your experiences. If you have returned home, I guess that you miss that feeling - and I also imagine if you are anything like me, your friends and family are sick of hearing your stories and seeing your photo albums again and again.

With this website you can share your knowledge and creativity with other fellow travelers who are only too pleased to be your audience. If you have yet to go traveling I hope this site both inspires you to make the leap and also give you some insight into how to get the most out of your time away.

This site is about user participation - so click here to find out how you can get involved. Don't be hesitant, this is your opportunity to keep the travel feeling going indefinitely!!

Enjoy,
