“It’s cutting travel costs, but not cutting the exciting elements of adventure” is Art of Backpacking’s motto. We target backpackers, independent travelers, gap-year students, career breakers, adventurous travelers, frequent flyers, and most obviously – passionate travelers.

Our readers are budget minded and always seeking off the beaten track destinations as well as a different approach to even well known destinations. I’m always looking to expand and I continue to put long hours each day into the expansion. I understand that you can only profit if you make more than you spend and thus we offer a very affordable way to promote your service, product, or website.

Founded in December, 2008.
