Book Review: For People With More Brains Than Money
Summary: 5 Stars
About 5 years ago, practically on a whim, I traveled to Australia. I was able to stay for 6 weeks and spent only about 600 US dollars for housing. In some cases, the backpackers hostels had increased their rates, but honored the price printed in the Lonely Planet guide. I wasn't interested in luxury accommodations and restaurants where I could rub elbows with fat American tourists and eat the same food offered in similiar establishments in America. I shared accommodations with fellow travelers from Europe and native Australians. I ate what they ate, I drank their bitter beer with them, and had the time of my life. I enjoyed free buffets and pitchers that local restaurants and pubs supplied to the backpackers hostels and enjoyed bargain priced tours and excursions with the real people I like to associate with. Thanks to the guide, I knew just what I wanted to see and the best way to get there. I had never traveled abroad and had no idea what I was in for. This guide was a Godsend. If you have a bankroll, you don't need this book. If you lack a bankroll, all you need is a backpack and this book. Hey, you don't even have to have the backpack.
