It's 2025, mothertruckers!! I hope you had a bangin' end of 2024 and you're ready to grab 2025 by the balls. First off, I want to thank you for sticking with The Broke Backpacker over the last year. I am feeling excited, enthused and motivated and this year is going to be a year of epic adventures that I look forward to sharing with you :) If last year felt like a series of wrong turns, wild detours, and breathtaking moments to you, youβre not alone. Travel, especially backpacking, is a journey. But it isn't merely a journey through places, it is also a journey through lessons. Broke backpackers thrive on the unexpected. They thrive on the things that go wrong, how they manage to turn those situations upside down, and the lessons they take from that. I know I learned a lot last year. My team of expert globetrotting vagabonds did too. So we got together and wrote a post about it :) βClick here to find out what The Broke Backpacker team learned in 2024.
