Backpackers Travel Further and Into Increasingly Diverse Territories

As backpacking – a more informal form of global travel – takes off, more and more people are travelling to a whole range of diverse destinations. Whereas once backpackers fit into a defined age and social demographic – i.e. mainly young and between stages of further or higher education, nowadays backpackers come in all shapes and sizes.

(PRWEB) March 21, 2006 -- They are travelling further and further off the beaten track, for example as well as the well-worn paths of Australia and Thailand, many are now adventuring into Vietnam, Laos, China, Indonesia and taking diverse overland routes all over Asia, Africa and South America.
