Planning and Management becomes Backpacker

 Planning is important and absolutely necessary , as this is the starting point of all the adventures in locations that may have never been known by a backpacker . Careful planning not only give background location to be addressed but also sufficient knowledge to deal with problems that may occur . 

Travel planning process include:

•     Determine the destination place or country to be addressed .
•     Determining what to do there : a street , studying the culture , courses , learning , conferencing , shopping , etc. ?
•     Finding information about the destination .
•     Social, economic and political country or destination . Is it safe to travel there?
•     Administrative Requirements : Passport , visa necessary or not , how to take care of the visa , how requirements , travel insurance , currency , driver's license etc.
•     Natural conditions : weather , season , distance between cities , the availability of transportation
•     Accommodation : where to live , how far away from the city , how the condition of residence , who owns it ( if you have to stay at home person ) , how far away from shopping malls / stores ( at least for foraging ) , language , telecommunication networks , etc.
•     Budget : tickets , transportation for backpackers , lodging, meals , daily necessities .
•     Source of funding : how much , from which source .

Information that must be known a backpacker

Most of this information can be found on the internet by accessing the place / country will we destinations through google or through wikitravel or some other site. Besides via the Internet, books on traveling like Lonely Planet can be used as a reference, as well as seek information and ask the people who never go to the place.

Backpacker Travel Management into
  
Travel Management is the cornerstone of traveling with a low budget . Limited costs and time required to perform management backpacker over the cost , time and needs careful and precise and economical.Why is this important , example of the ticket , cheap tickets can usually be purchased at the time of promotion or far - away days . To get a promo ticket , you must be diligent checking the airline website . There are several low- budget airlines like Air Asia , Cebu , TigerAir , which often provide Jetstar promo tickets or tickets at low prices . Sometimes major airlines also do promotions with special prices in certain seasons . To facilitate a good idea to subscribe to certain airlines that regularly sends newsletters . Make it a habit to read the terms and conditions when you will buy a ticket . This is important in case you have to postpone the trip or for example the flight was canceled .

Backpacker also need time management 

Time management becomes important especially if you have other activities such as work or school . Planning and good management will give some ease to travel easy , cheap and convenient . For example , during school holidays , airfares and accommodation usually tend to be expensive , but on the contrary at the time of school entry season ticket and accommodation prices tend to fall and become very cheap .Summer ( Summer ) is usually not a good time to do the traveling to countries with four seasons , as summer is generally the peak density for traveling activities . On the other hand , the snow season ( winter ) is also not a good time to visit , although the possibility of cheap ticket prices , for people who are not familiar with cold weather . Similarly, when the country you 're headed there is a big tournament like the world cup or the Olympics . Transportation and accommodations will rise in price . These conditions will have an impact on the fees you incur.

Backpacker is necessary Itinerary 
 
Travel schedule is another thing you should prepare. Schedule Regular travel will make it easy for you in time management and expense. Get used to arrange travel schedule or itinerary before you leave. Make a list of places you will visit. If you could try to check the location via maps or access to a google map. With good planning schedule, the time and cost of your journey to become more efficient. Some of the tourist attractions there is a possibility lies in one location and adjacent. So you do not need to pay extra for transportation.

Default list Backpacker 

Management also took note of luggage . Many airlines apply the rules to a record low price ticket you are prohibited from carrying luggage trunk , just enough cabin bag or carry-on bag only . So you need to pay attention to this provision , if you still want to travel at a low cost . Management of luggage is very useful , especially if you do a lot of traveling on foot . The more weight you default , the heavier the load that must be supported by your body . Decide what to carry and how much , will facilitate you to travel comfortably . Remember the more you bring the more luggage you should watch . Choose clothes and shoes that are comfortable and do not require special treatment . Bring personal purposes such as medicine taste . Prepare a special padlock and key for your bag , if you have to stay by way of sharing . Make a list of items tidy and avoid default order of items left behind or confused .

Backpacker also have to control myself

With good self-management. Many events, people will go crazy and forget the commitment and purpose to travel. Self-management and commitment is especially important in managing emotions. Usually for beginners or people who first visit a little market destinations, will lose control when I saw the place and the good stuff. The best way is to discipline yourself to focus on the schedule that was created earlier. We can be flexible with the schedule that we make, but again, if you are too flexible possibilities for what you want to see and do are not met. It could be that you have to pay extra for the trip.

What are prepared Backpacker? 
 
If you've been able to determine where you want to target and acquire enough information, it's time to prepare for the trip, including buying tickets, take care of the purposes of licensing and arrange travel itinerary. Make sure everything is arranged neatly and fulfill what you want to do and see. Take care of everything yourself will be cheaper than using the services of others. Preparing a list of belongings. It sounds funny if we should arrange luggage, but if you do, this list will help you keep an eye on your luggage during the journey.
Start looking for info rate hotels or cheap lodging in hostelbookers or Hostelworld. Are generally inexpensive dormitory rooms, rooming rollicking, can be air-conditioned 6 to 10 people in one room. We pay per bed / night. If you stay in the dormitory room, preferably at bedtime, valuable items, gadgets etc. is stored in the deposit box. Usually we are asked to deposit a security deposit box, and the money will be refunded when we checked out of the hostel.
Familiarize yourself to read the information that is available. Reading is one of the weaknesses of the Indonesian people. Indonesian people usually lazy to read. There are a lot of very useful information that is often missed by us because we are lazy to read. Get used to reading as it gives a lot of advantages when we travel.

Adventures Reinhold Messner


Messner first learn and understand the tragedy that often befalls a mountain climber. In 1970, it was on an expedition in the Himalayas. Messner and his brother Gunther climb Nanga Parbat from Rupal province in Pakistan during the coming catastrophe. Gunther began to show signs of altitude sickness attacked, and Reinhold trying to find the quickest way to go down soon. During the trip down, in front Reinhold Günther. When he returned to check on his brother, he finds that Gunther was swept by snow avalanches.
Inquiries and charges of a loss of Gunther Messner had eclipsed since. Did he leave his brother just below the peak, because the load? Or Gunther stuck in snow avalanches close to the bottom, like Messner claims?. He lost six toes and several fingers attacked "frostbite" frostbite on this track, and it was blamed for the death of his brother by many people. 

This experience does not stop Messner to pursue new challenges. In 1975, it rose Gasherbrum I in the Himalayas with Peter Habeler without the aid of oxygen. Three years later Messner finished climbing Mount Everest with Habeler, be the first to climb without the help of oxygen tubes. He describes the experience as "the lungs narrow gasping, floating above the mist and pinnacles." 

Since the tragedy of 1970, Messner was climbing again five times, with 'cuts' that will not heal. But controversy still haunt him, in fact, very intensive in recent years. So again Messner plan to return to Nanga Parbat to hunt the remnants of Gunther, hoping to straighten history. 

The next adventure was crossing the Gobi desert to Sulden, Messner describes a very different way away from what ever it is currently receiving. "Crossing the Gobi is a real milestone for me," he said. Over the course of the past that clearly crossed his mind, and he thought about his childhood.

Messner chronological record of each climb and is written in the book The Crystal Mountain. It was written more than 50 titles over his career. 

Messner reached career peak in 1986 when he became the first person to climb all the peaks at an altitude above 8,000 meters. It proclaimed the first time I saw the yeti, animals for some people is a myth. He continued to find the animals and then concluded that it resembled a pet bear.
In 1999, Messner entered politics and won a seat in the European Parliament. Served only one season and left in 2004.
