🇵🇪 What‘s actually in Peru?

Machu Picchu an Inca city built on a mountain ridge.

Rainbow Mountain striped rock at 5,000m, the colours are real.

The Inca Trail the original stone path in. You can walk the last day of it.

Maras Salt Mines thousands of salt pools on a hillside, still worked by local families.

Cusco the old Inca capital, weaving workshops and cobbled streets.

The Sacred Valley ruins, mountain villages, and some of the best downhill biking in South America.

All of it in one trip. Backpacking Peru, 10 days from Cusco. Link in bio.

Sunrise at Angkor Wat is incredible, but the 4 AM wake-up call is a test of character—especially if you were having 50-cent draft beers on Pub Street the night before.

Ten days is the ideal stretch of time for Cambodia. It is enough to explore the giant stone faces of Bayon, navigate the busy street food stalls of Phnom Penh, and still get three solid days of slow island life on Koh Rong.

We have mapped out the exact day-by-day route we run on our trips, including honest budget tips and how to handle the local buses. Head over to our blog to read the full guide. 🇰🇭

Plan your dream trip with our 10-day backpacking itinerary for Cambodia. Explore Angkor Wat, vibrant markets, and pristine islands, with practical tips for 18-39 year-old adventurers.

🇵🇭 🏝️ Palawan gives you a different day every day.

Mornings start on a bangka heading out to islands you'd have trouble finding on your own. Some days that's snorkelling over coral with turtles below you. Some days it's drifting into a lagoon closed in by limestone on every side. Some days it's a zipline across the bay before lunch.

Doing Palawan solo means chasing boat charters, tide times, and permits that nobody explains properly. That part is handled. You turn up and get on the boat.

Sleep in a 1000-year-old Buddhist temple 🏯

That’s night nine of our new 17-day Japan trip. The monks teach you to meditate, cook you dinner, then take you on a lantern-lit walk through Japan’s biggest cemetery. You wake up to their morning fire ceremony.

The other 16 days aren’t bad either. Snow monkeys in the hot springs at Jigokudani. Bullet trains at 200mph. A samurai master teaching you to hold a sword properly. The floating torii gate at Miyajima. Deer in Nara that bow for a cracker.

Tokyo to Osaka. Groups of 4 to 16. 21 activities, 20 meals, all sorted.

Sekumpul, Bali 💦

Day 16 of Backpacking Bali.

You don’t just show up at this one. It’s a hike down through the jungle, a bamboo bridge that’s seen better days, and a river crossing where everyone’s shoes get soaked.
⠀
Then you turn a corner and there it is.
⠀
Worth every step. 🥾
