What is "Backpacker Paradise"?
Backpacker Paradise is place that is so wonderful, so affordable, you come for a week but stay for a month!
After traveling so much I can really break it down into detail. I've created a "Backpacker Paradise Scale" which I'll be using in my "World Travel Pro Report" series.
The rating system has seven topics, with scores ranging from 0 to 5.
To be true Backpacker Paradise and earn a top score, it must fit into the descriptions below!
Affordability: The country is so affordable you feel wealthy. You can ignore your budget and still stay within your budget. My standard budget is based on twenty dollars a day.
Food: The food is safe to eat, affordable, healthy, and delicious.
Culture: Must be interesting, friendly, safe, and non-aggressive.
Activities: Must have plenty of interesting things to see and do that won't empty your pockets, good backpacker company to socialize with, and nice weather.
Hotel Value: You get a comfortable place to stay at a great price, and you don't have to try hard to find a good deal.
Safety: It's safe! Morning, day, and night. Low rate of tourist related scams.
Transportation: The country has good infrastructure, safe, speedy, and affordable transportation.
To be Backpacker Paradise is not so common. There are several countries on this planet that fit the bill. As a world traveler, I'm constantly in search of the next Backpacker Paradise.
Keep a look out for my travel reports to see how much paradise I've found!

Yes, you introduced me to him like my first day on here two weeks ago. After a few back and forth messages he said we should meet up while I'm there. I'm excited about Playa del Carmen. I thinks it's going to be a good taste of Paradise. I should be there in about two weeks. First heading to Lake Atitlan, Guatamala, tomorrow. I'm thinking that too will be good.
Excellent... you can thank me later. Safe Travels
