Here is a great
step by step guide to escape the rat race and get started backpacking around the world. As the guys at startbackpacking say, it is not a matter of age or money, anyone can get out and enjoy a great adventure; but you can make life a hell of a lot easier for yourself by getting good advice.
One epic adventurer is Jason Lewis, he set out 13 years ago to peddle, paddle, roller blade, walk and swim around the world. Hats off to Jason, who is about to complete circumnavigating the globe, ending his 46,000 mile journey at the Greenwich Meridian, London, UK. I guess that he will then treat himself to a train ride to his home in Dorset.

See hundreds of exhibitors and talk to people who have been there and done that. Find out where to go for the time of your life, whether your seeking adrenaline-charged super activities, experiencing the indigenous cultures of remote tribes, night-life festivities, or the art galleries of the world.
