From hostels to hotels. Backpacks to suitcases. Hitchhiking to guided tours.
The journey a backpacker takes through 20 years and 45 countries is as much about the person as it is about the places. In>The Backpacker Lifecycle, Brendyn Zachary shares his hilarious (and sometimes highly personal) experiences of travelling through different countries and different states of mind as the years go by.

---EXCERPT FROM CHAPTER 1---
The familiar smell of budget noodles boiling in dented aluminum pots became obvious as soon as I stepped through the front door. Hostels never change. A few travellers waited near the front desk, straddling backpacks between their feet. Another had fallen asleep in a corner lounge chair while hugging his closed laptop, unbothered by the abundance of well-travelled dirt between the cushions. A cracked guitar leaned against a book-swap shelf filled with outdated guidebooks, long since replaced by smartphones. Heavily accented conversation rang out from the communal kitchen. For at least a decade of my life, I wanted only to be in places like this. That era of exploration and self-discovery was now well behind me, but never far from my thoughts. And now I found myself back at a hostel, hitting reset and starting again. Inevitably. Despite the years of absence from backpacking, I still felt at home.
