“You long to go ito nature because nature doesn't care about you. To be clear, it's not that nature sees you, accepts you for who you are, and loves you anyway: nature just doesn't give a shit about you.”
Diana Helmuth, How to Suffer Outside: A Beginner's Guide to Hiking and Backpacking

“Reis på tur med Backpacker - og opplev verden på unikt vis, skap fantastiske reiseminner, og knytt livslange bånd med jevnaldrende likesinnede!”
Bali - øyhopping og strandliv - 28 dager
