Egypt is an ideal travel destination for the intense budget backpacker or runaway. It is remarkably cheap, it is full of ancient wonders, and has a great hostel/backpacker scene.

The road was the most desolate road I had ever attempted to hitchhike.

The Coolest Hostel in Cairo
There’s no city like Cairo. No city where the sugar cane juice is always on tap. Where Shawma, Koshary, Fried Cheese Sandwich’s and Pigeon can be bought on nearly every corner. Where the beats blast so loud from speakers jerry rigged to scooters that the reverberations shake ones inner ear to a blissful nausea. It’s […]
Sneaking Into Angkor Wat
At breakfast we came across a Dutch fellow who recounted some recent anecdotes of how he tripped acid while being interrogated by Nepalese police and how he spent 2500 euro after a drunken night at a Katmandu Casino.
