    Stranded Passengers - Traveling the world, and getting lost every step of that way! My awesome travel blog is about crazy travel stories, great advice about how to travel, travel tips and all the random knowledge I've acquired from backpacking through more than 80 countries around the world. I aim to show everyone that traveling is something that everyone can do, you don't have to be a trust fund baby to live your dreams about seeing the world. If a normal kid from Ireland can do it, then there's no reason why you guys can't too. I hope this site will help every step of the way, with some great advice and plenty of inspiration. Stay tuned, like my facebook page, and get ready to strap on that rusty backpacker!
