Abstract: | Backpacking - long-haul, long-term independent travel- has become increasingly common over the last few decades. This marginal activity has gradually entered the tourism mainstream. By examining interview and internet material and ethnographic field research, this paper considers where this growth in interest has come from, and how transformations in the perception of backpacking have taken place. |
