Backpackers
Backpackers are those intrepid travelers who wander on the cheap, with no fixed plan, few possessions, an open mind, an open heart, and desire to meet new people while being able to carry all their stuff in one bag.

About Me
I left the rat race in 2006 to travel the world for a year but I haven't stopped since. I have my own travel website at, Nomadic Matt's Travel Site, and another separate planning site for those seeking to do RTW travel at How to Travel the World.
I've decided to never join the rat race again and now I make my living traveling, writing, and running online travel websites.
You can find me all over the web at my travel blog, Stumble Upon, Twitter, Digg, my photo blog, and my life musings site. (I'm all over the web like a cop to a donut!)

Let's Help Each Other with SEO
Travel Bloggers,
The way to rank high in Google to get links. That's it. You need links. Links with the text you want to rank high for. There are over 600 members on TBEX.
