Adventurers Question:

☛ Check for free ways to have real adventures like couch-surfing, language instruction, or vehicle transport for other party.
☛ There are plenty of packing lists you can find online for any kind of adventure, so make use of those by doing a quick search online, to save reinventing the wheel.
☛ Ask the locals for information wherever you go. Guidebooks can only take you so far and they're subjective anyway. It's a great opportunity to talk to local people and find out a lot more than you would normally.
☛ Carry a light weight load. Your backpack should carry only a comfortable amount of weight.
