One of the really great things about backpacking is that you are almost sure to meet new friends from a multitude of different nationalities - regardless of whether you're a party-mad extrovert or the original Billy Nomates! And because traveling broadens the mind as well as the social circle, you're going to want to keep a record of what went on where, in order to spend your golden years reminiscing about the biggest adventure you ever had! with that in mind, we've designed this page to help you stay in touch with friends both new and old, by listing as many cheap providers of phone cards and VOIP as we can possibly think of. We've also listed some of the best photo sharing sites on the Internet too, so that you can upload your memories and share them with the world, so everyone can see how much fun you're having on your backpacking adventure! Oh - and don't forget, you can join the Backpackers Life community for free as well, which gives you loads of opportunities to post blogs and messages as well as uploading your photos. Your backpacking adventure is likely to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so why not capture as much of it as you possibly can and share it with as many people as possible!
