Resumen del Editor

“We travel for life not to escape us.”

This quote has always been the one that has stuck in my head. For those of us lucky enough to be able to travel, life feels so much more enriched from meeting new people from different parts of the world and from different backgrounds, experiencing new cultures and seeing some amazing sights and places of natural beauty.

This is exactly how I feel every time I take a trip to a new country. Traveling has opened my eyes to so many things and helped me to feel grateful for the life that I have and the world that we live in.

I started my backpacking days in my late 20s and have not stopped since. I still feel there are so many new places to discover, people to meet, new food to try.

When I was a newbie traveler, I made many mistakes, forgot to take essential items, and just made some bad choices. Over the years, through experience and learning from others, I have learned what you need to do to travel as safely as possible, what essential items to take, how to take care of your health, and how to make the most of your trip. My goal with this book is to pass on all these tips to you so that you can get it right from the start. I have made all the mistakes so you don’t need to.

Let’s face it. You don’t want to end up on a hike with just a pair of flip flops to your name or end up with a tropical disease because you didn’t get your vaccine done before you left home. This book gives you all the know-how you need to avoid these mistakes.

In this book, you’ll learn:

• What essential items to take with you
• How to pack light
• What you need to do before you go
• How to make the most of your time
• How to travel as safely as possible
• How to get immersed in the local culture

And much more.

You may think that it is all common sense; that you don’t need any tips. And this may have been my thinking at one point. But there will be many things that have just not crossed your mind that you will be pleased you knew before you jetted off.

Even if all this book does is teach you one thing you didn’t know, then you’re one step closer to being the knowledgeable backpacker you were hoping to be.

If this sounds like you, then scroll up and buy now.

"Oh the places you'll go" - Dr. Suess

I'm jealous of author Sienna Santos' many traveling adventures. She is brave to travel the world and kind enough to share what she's learned through trial and error and personal experience. I never would have thought of many of the tips she shares in this handy-dandy book of tips. If you're considering traveling somewhere - anywhere - this is a great book. Such solid, helpful advice. I'll only ever roll my clothes from now on when I'm traveling. And perhaps I'll even pack a few things inside my hat. I'm also glad I'm not the only one who needs to pack anti-diarrheal medication for those "street food" moments. Better to be safe than sorry.

Super book for anyone interested in backpacking

If you are looking to make your backpacking experience a positive one, this book is for you. The author shares tips, tricks and useful information based on her years of travelling and back packing. The book covers everything from essential items to pack to how to engage with locals and experience the local culture while travelling safely. If you are thinking of backpacking any time soon, you need this book!

Terrific

I wish I had listened to this book before my last camping trip. This book would've definitely helped with the preparation process a little better than going in blindly as I did. The narration was also great and kept you engaged.

Great tips to keep you safe.

This book is filled with great tips to keep you safe while backpacking. Easy to understand and straight to the point.

What a great little guide!

I've traveled a bit, but not backpacking throughout the world as the author has done. I thought I knew a lot, but this list will have something on it that you don't know, no matter who you are! I loved that they suggested certain apps (phone apps were not a thing when I was a backpacker!), and included tips about what NOT to pack as well as what to pack. Transportation, places to stay, money exchange, meals, and more... it seems like EVERYTHING is covered in this book, even if touched on briefly. The author shares personal anecdotes from her travels while explaining. And the narrators voice is pleasant to listen to. I will definitely keep this audiobook in my library and pull it out as a reference again!

Fabulous guide to backpacking!

This book really breaks down all of the essential tips and tricks to backpacking, and breaks all scenarios down seamlessly in case you find yourself in a tough situation during a trip.

I always like to take trips that I am prepared for, and this book really prepares anyone (beginner or advanced) for a variety of travel adventures.

The narration quality is also top notch, which keeps the book super engaging. Loved it!

Great Tips

This book is very informative and prepares you for travel. Has definitely opened my eyes in regards to exploring different areas.

Jam packed with useful information!

This book is a traveler's essential checklist and guide that will literally prevent a lot of headaches when travelling! Especially helpful for those travelling for the first time, the author covers all basis from what not to forget, all preparation needed before travelling to a new country and other amazing tips that are guaranteed to set you up for an unforgettable trip!

Highly recommend!

Lots of Great Information

I really enjoyed this book, especially the tips for packing. I had thought about a second passport but not making copies of it. That was helpful. Another thing I didn't think of was a padlock. The same with the headlamp. I love hiking but usually I'm back before dark so again, another helpful item to pack. The safety tips were good, too. The author recommends a few apps that will be helpful, especially when you're traveling abroad.

A Must Read for New Backpackers!

This is a great book if you are new, or even familiar with backpacking. Santos unlocks the list here and discusses planning, packing, safety and staying healthy all in one place. Forget the mistakes and just listen to this book!
