Go alone. Get lost. Eat.

Nothing quite like a hostel crowd!

Don't travel & try to see everything. Unless you have a 1-way ticket & unlimited time, you end up seeing nothing, just rushing from one famous place to the next. Keep a lighter itinerary & fill the gaps in your schedule if they come. Slow down and look around 🛫 #traveltips

Never trust a self-proclaimed "foodie" that can't cook.

My first time backpacking through Europe was 10 years ago. Hostel prices now are 4-6× more expensive in many of the cities I visited. For the same hostels. That's a substantial increase in 10 years.

$150+/night for a dorm bed? No thanks. Sad times when backpacking is pushed out.

Easily why Spain is one of my favorite places in the world to travel. Unbelievable food. Even the potato chips are noteworthy.

Just drove past two pitbulls (wearing collars) on the side of the highway tearing apart some roadkill 🤦‍♂️ #jacksonmississippi

@redhunttravel Same. I guess a barn door beats that 😅

[The Hangry Backpacker @HangryBackpackr]

Barn doors for the bathroom in hotel rooms... why?

[The Hangry Backpacker @HangryBackpackr]

@redhunttravel Not the tightest seal for a bathroom door 🤷‍♂️

Craving covrigi at the moment, Romania's pretzel-ish snack. Need for Romanian food in my life 🥨

NHL doing so well at "growing the game." I live in N Oregon, about 1K miles from Denver and Anaheim. In Seattle market (who is also always blacked out). Well done @NHL 👏

@twjpdx23 @j_rubinette @flypdx Either way, "open and operational" is a stretch... most of the restaurants in here are closed, bathrooms are a mess, water is leaking from the ceiling and it took almost 2 hours for my flight to get to a gate AFTER landing at PDX today.

The desire to fill a backpack, buy a one-way plane ticket and go for months or years is strong. Starting to think this feeling will always be there ✈️🌏

I was talking about this one hour ago. Never Googled this before. Then, boom. Facebook ad.
