Traveling is always an adventure, but none more so than when it's simply you and a backpack! Just because you are traveling light however, that doesn't mean that you should under-prepare and a bit of time invested up front  can save you a lot of grief in the long term. So don't leave anything to chance, make sure that you've got backpacker insurance and that you have plenty of access to cash - regardless of whether you're only backpacking for a month, or heading off for a gap year. It also pays to have the right gear too - because you're sure to experience all sorts of weather during your time away. You should also spare a thought for the folks back home - phone cards and voip can be great, cheap ways of staying in touch, while photo sharing and blogging are great for keeping everyone up to date with your backpacking adventure. In these "Gear & Essentials" pages, we've listed some of the best possible deals that are available on the Internet for everything you need to go backpacking. So what are you waiting for - get kitted up now!
