Favorite backpacking book
- MY favorite travel book is called PartyEArth Europe. This guide is like none other, because it bases it's reviews on four unique personality types that help match the reviews to the traveler. Also, this guide specifically focuses on social entertainment, what every backpacker is in search of. This guide is a must for any fun-loving, outgoing, adventurous traveler. With out it, my trip wouldn't have been the same.

Lost City of Z
- Really enjoyed this excellent read. I'd like to write a review, but I'm not as talented with a keyboard as that author. It was really thought provoking.
