Backpackers are not lost; they are explorers navigating the world on a budget. Equipped with a single backpack containing their essential belongings—and perhaps an extra pair of socks—they embark on their journeys with a focus on experiences rather than luxury. This often includes enduring modest accommodations, such as backpackers in pursuit of authentic and immersive travel. They are, in essence, highly organized nomads with a preference for walking and a minimalist approach to life. Driven by wanderlust and a willingness to embrace the unfamiliar, they thrive on adventure, often sustained by the local cuisine, no matter how unconventional it may seem.
