Welcome to the Reluctant Backpacker

Inspiring Travel & Exploration With a Touch of Luxury

If like me you’re approaching a ‘certain age’ yet still feel an intense passion and desire to travel, read on. Do you crave to explore new places and try new experiences? Then you will find something amongst these pages that will grab your interest and make you want to dig out your passport.

What My Site Is About

 I’m into travelling but past ‘roughing it’, so I’m on a mission to discover as much of our beautiful planet as possible, with that extra bit of luxury. I want to provide a site full of ideas & inspiration that provides a real sense of the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of the places I visit.

Enjoy My Site. Be Inspired. Travel.
