Hi there, I’m Robb, Aka "BackPack BOB". Traveller, Blogger, Entrepreneur, Alcoholic. I have spent my life travelling around the world, and COVID-19 hasn't stopped me. Since leaving the United Kingdom at 18, I've worked in three continents met some incredible people and been to some of the most beautiful places on earth. I've collected countless untold stories and mishaps along the way. In my travel blog, I'll share the reality about travelling, the up's and the down's, with no bulls**t, and no drama, I tell it how it is. In a time when travel has become such a controversial topic, and most people will tell you off that you are best to stay at home, because, you know, pandemic... I want to inspire and prove that travel is still possible, and safe. I want to share why and how travel is so incredible and unique in a world after the coronavirus. The time to get back out there is now.
