Welcome to Australia Backpacker Link

Backpacking is a form of international travel that costs much less than the usual luxurious travels. Backpackers have been in existence since a long time and to such an extent that it has actually created an industry of accommodations and backpacking gear stores not only in Australia but across the globe. The industry started to grow because of the travellers' desire to have a more 'authentic' travelling adventure, doing away with packaged tours (travelling with a large group, a tour guide, and being assured of all the comforts of costly hotels). Backpackers opt to have a more personal experience backed by a philosophy of trusting one's self to be able to get through the journey.

Adventurous Backpackers...

By and large, backpackers support similar viewpoints when travelling. They are fuelled by their zeal of travel, and they would want to be "one" with the locals as soon as possible...as much as possible. The budget is also a major distinguishing point in backpacker travels; it's definitely low-profile and well within anyone's budget who wishes to explore the various places on the globe but does not have a huge amount of savings to spend on travelling. Backpackers are ready to be away from modern-day amenities of top class hotels such as cable televisions, computers, multi-cuisine restaurants, health spas, gymnasiums, just to name a few. Nonetheless, digital cameras, MP3s, and cellular phones are must-haves for some. Cameras are for capturing their precious moments and reliving their experience through the various photos taken on the way. MP3s or iPods are for keeping the good vibe to continue the journey, and cell phones to keep them connected.

Australia and Backpackers...

Australia is a very good destination and has a lot to offer its backpacker travellers. Explore the quaint beauty of The Olgas. Take pleasure in seeing and surfing in the Bondi Beach, Whitsunday Beach, Byron Bay, or the Gold Coast. Mingle with fellow sightseers in the Sydney Harbor Bridge. Unravel the mysteries of The Rock and even get the chance to enjoy delectable international cuisine. Don't worry, there are backpacker accommodations everywhere in Australia. The best part about backpacking is that you are able to learn about the various cultures and traditions all across the globe. There are no restrictions and no itinerary to follow whatsoever. You can go wherever you feel like and spend as much time possible in a place that you absolutely adore. You can actually take up a job in any of the places that you intend to stay for a longer time in case you happen to run out of cash. It does not matter then if you are in Melbourne or then in Sydney, chances of finding temporary jobs are abundant.
