About Me And The Blog
Short version: Travelling the world since 1992, currently in Mexico. 98 countries visited - explored extensively. Content Creator!
2020:
I've been on the road since January 6. I travelled down through France during the month-long strike, took a boat to Tunisia, flew to Senegal. Backpacked my way to Mali and Ivory Coast. I flew to Kenya and then spent 105 days in Naivasha as the world locked down.
I took a 1000$ evac flight to Amsterdam and went straight to Serbia. I have been in the Balkans since June 28. Serbia, Kosovo, Albania and North Macedonia. I am just finishing up 14 days of isolation having been in contact with someone who tested +ve for Covid-19.
Escape the maddening scene there and few to Mexico. Holed up on a beach on the Pacific coast.
About Nomadic Backpacker: There are no affiliate links or paid promotions. All mentions of hostels and any other businesses are done entirely with no financial compensation. I have always paid the normal rate! though my hostel reviews have some times been worthy of a free beer or two.
This blog focuses on my present journey, from January 2020, with occasional reposts from my old blog which was hacked in 2016. Which is a big shame as I had lots of crazy stories from West Africa.
All images are mine. I do not believe in using stock images. I'd rather post my sometimes mediocre photos than use someone else's.
Running costs are helped by DONATIONS and I just set up Buy Me A Coffee, a fun way to support my blog.
