Backpacking

Backpacking refers to a form of low-cost, independent travel that typically involves carrying all necessary belongings in a backpack. It often includes hiking in nature, staying in budget accommodations like hostels, and exploring various destinations at one's own pace. Backpackers usually seek experiences that immerse them in local cultures, whether through food, activities, or community interactions. This travel style emphasizes adventure, flexibility, and the ability to connect with others while minimizing expenses. It's popular among young travelers, but people of all ages can enjoy the freedom and spontaneity it offers.
