Any other Detroityeser,s perfer to Travel by Backpack get off the beaten path stay at hostels, guest houses, away from the tourist where the prices are half of the tourist havens and you meet the the locals and see the culture ?
I love to Travel by Backpack if I like a town a stay a few extra days if not I put on the backpack walk to the nearest taxi bus/train station and move on in with out much thought or planning. I just went thru Asia had the time of my life and did not spent very much money I already have my next trip planned out with plane ticket already bought.
I refuse to travel Abroad and spend all my time with westerners if I wanted that I would go to a beach in Fla
