Hey

I just started a blog. I just came back from South America where I went travelling for two months, with just a 50 litre backpack. It was a LOT of fun, I went to many interesting places and met lots of cool people. I have started my blog to tell other people of my adventure, and inspire them to do the same thing and go and explore another part of the world.

The address is http://theblackbackpacker..com/

I don't make any money off of this in any way so it is not commercial, just want to share stories of my two month adventure. I also have another upcoming trip planned to another part of the world VERY soon, so this blog will be very active!

Spread the word and start reading!

Thx

visited d blog. . .makes sense.keep it up

hmnn, interesting. you must really be adventurous to venture into South America considering the language barrier. Most people's travels are either to Europe, North America, Australia, It's refreshing to see someone going South.

very cool blog i especially liked the pics (few that you had) of brazil the beach area looks cool.

Wow u're are one brave soul. I'm glad u enjoyed ur stay and your blog is really interesting. Haven't been to Rio but always heard good things. Still planning on visiting one of these days . Lived in Brasilia D.F in the early nineties with my folks and visited Sao Paulo.
U definitely have to go back to Brazil during Carnival. U would not be disappointed

Nice blog.
I wish I could have done this in my twenties. Will still get to South America anyways, though not as a backpacker.

canuck and everyone on this thread

Thanks for the kind words on the blog, it can be hard to know how the writing comes across to other people so feedback is always always helpful!

If you have any tips or suggestions of what you'd like to see more or less of, please feel to share!

Dude, your blog is perfect. My flatmate is Brazilian and I showed him, He was like WTF how could you go to a favale ha ha. No "normal" person does that.
I also gotta comment your writing skills, your punchlines are on point. You had me laughing when you said you never done a golden shower without consent before. Big ups man, enjoy your adventure.

Thanks!

hey man, great stuff but didnt you make it to Bs As or you just didnt get the time to write about it yet?

here is a clue for all would be travellers out there on the cheap: COUCH SURFING!!!! you would be surprised how many people out there are willing to offer you a place to stay for free (as long as you dont look like a psycho)

as for the Brazil, you seem to have had a great time but where are the juicy meninas stories? come on now!

Haha! Dont worry I did make it down to Buenos Aires, all the stories coming soon!

@Topic,
Any new backpacking stories?
