My stories

 

Stories-3

 

Stories from the road is all about the stories of my life on the road.

 

I set up BudgetTraveller to be a resource for inspiring your current and future travels.

Besides the luxury hostel reviews and cheap eats guides, I guess my own personal travel stories are a major part , the soul of this blog.

So here, for the first time, I’ve summarised below from the last 2 years my stories from the road.

Enjoy.
