1999 backpacking history of the last 20 years

1999 Was the year I graduated from high school. Still a very shy guy, a natural introvert, I started to open myself to the world. But I would not start backpacking until 2001 when I would dare to see and do more. Those days without a camera, no phone and only gut and some info proven to be a very valuable lesson for the future. 20 years later I look back at those changes by reading this article on hostelworld about the changes in travelling. What a life and stories have been made in the process of learning the meaning of life.
