Mescalina backpacker
Travel backpack on the shoulder of
Enrico and Alessio
A travel backpack travel blog, specifically designed for those with time and budget limits, This is the idea of Mescalina backpacker , born from an idea of two friends, Enrico and Alessio.
Hi Enrico and welcome to Easy Travel hosting! Mescalina backpacker, A travel backpack travel blog, but also an inner journey to discover ourselves through the discovery of the world. You want to talk about how this blog is born?
Here I am, Thanks to you for the opportunity. The blog was born in 2013 Even if it was years that I was working on it and only thanks to the help of Alessio that I was able to put my ideas into practice.
"Backpack" trip since I had 16 years, 25 years ago. For years I have shot Europe first and then Asia, Africa Central America and Middle East without all comforts and technologists who are today, me too, almost indispensable.
Solo 10 years ago, If you open the Internet and look for some info on how to organize a backpacker trip anywhere in the world you found only 2-3 Italian sites (even badly made), The Lonely Planet forum and some site in English.
It is Lonely, For many as for me, The traveler's Bible. The only means I had to program, infor, decide, reserve, hypothesize any type of itinerary. After her, nothing.
So I started writing, Article after article, And today if you go to Google and try to organize a backpack trip to one of the countries where I was, On the first page it often happens to find melery backpacker.
One of the goals of the blog is to explain that travel can also be made with restricted times and budgets. Explain to us how?
Easy to leave not worrying about how much to spend, Even easier to start by having all the time possible.
Our trips are all designed for those with vacation and money limits.
Usually most boys have among the 10 e 15 days of vacation and for this reason he thinks he cannot go to a certain place because the days are few.
Wrong: in 10-15 days you can go, have fun and come back from anywhere in the world.
There is only need to inquire what little enough.
And we try to give that little information that have always allowed us to go anywhere, many times running, Many others doing bus hours and hours, still others making massacred tours, Don't sleep, not eating, Returning to Fiumicino and after three hours go to work or leave after two hours that has detached himself, but going where hell we wanted, without any limitation.
Each journey of Mescalina Backpacker lasts among the 7 and i 25 days, With a 1000 € budget to € 1500, all inclusive: volo, view, hotels, restaurants, transport, Excursions and various expenses.
The secret lies in not booking anything from home, only useful contacts are taken, e, Apart from the first night in the hotel usually booked by home, We turn directly on site.
And we share all our experiences and everything we have lived in the first person, where we slept, where we ate and what, The means with which we moved, The excursions we did, The adventures and misadventures that have happened to us.
Among the many trips you have made, you would talk about the one in Guatemala, land that is particularly close to us?
Guatemala is one of those travels that enter your heart and they don't get out anymore. I only tell you two places: Lago the Atiton e Talk. Lake Atitlan, that for the Maya is "the place where the rainbow take its colors" is one of the places that, stealing the words of Terzani on Bagan, makes you proud to belong to the human race.
A magical location, poetics, romantic, A place that looks like a fairy tale, A fairy tale that looks like a pastel picture lost in a enchanted valley that seems pretending as it is sweet and where life flows slowly and relaxed.
In Tikal, however, we arrive that it is still night, There are the stars and the gates are closed, But we can still leave our two backpacks at the ticket office, do the ticket and to enter first of all.
Of running we reach the top of the temple 4, The highest temple (64 meters), the temple of the bicefalo snake and alone, In the most absolute silence we enjoy the birth of a new day.
Tell us now about one of your adventures in Southeast Asia!
I turned the sudest Asia. Laos, Cambodia and Burma are locations that like Guatemala that you don't forget anymore. Turn for days by bike among the rice fields in the Bagan temples, or visit the Buddhist temples of Luang Prabang, fermass, sleep, read or meditate with some monk, Go up the river from Battobang to Siem Reap in atmospheres like Apocalipse Now.
