Welcome to this unpolished, unfiltered corner of the internet, designed specifically for those who embrace the backpacker lifestyle, no matter how miasmic it gets. This blog is your go-to resource for raw, real-world travel advice that you won’t find in glossy magazines or mainstream travel sites.
BrokenPassport’s mission is to provide you with the kind of information that only true, gritty travelers can appreciate. Forget the sanitized, picture-perfect travel guides – we’re here to share the highs, lows, and everything in between of the backpacking journey.
You won’t get some BS Travel and Leisure style advise for retired couples that think travel means staying in an overpriced hotel to impress other delusional people. This is hardcore travel advise for likeminded bums.
If you’re expecting luxury hotel recommendations or tips on how to impress your Instagram followers, you’re in the wrong place. We’re all about the gritty, no-frills travel experience that truly tests your mettle. Our advice is tailored for those who seek adventure and authenticity over comfort and pretense.
We believe that travel is about experiencing the world in its rawest form. Whether it’s finding the cheapest places to sleep, surviving on street food, or navigating public transportation in a foreign city, our tips are for those who are ready to embrace the true spirit of exploration.
No more excuses, you’re privileged.
For those of you sitting comfortably in the USA, Canada, or Western Europe, it’s time to stop making excuses. Yes, you can travel the world, and you don’t need a fortune to do it. It’s all about prioritizing your dreams over daily luxuries. Skip the expensive coffee and food delivery services – every penny saved gets you one step closer to your next adventure.
Living frugally now means you can afford to live a life full of rich experiences later. Embrace simplicity, learn to love rice and beans, and watch your travel fund grow. Before you know it, you’ll be on your way to discovering the world beyond your comfort zone.
