backpacking with kids is an eye opening experience 

As a child I have traveled a lot by train and  always use to see many foreign tourist carrying heavy backpacks on their back. There was always a curiosity to know why do they carry so much weight? what is the fun? why do these tourist travel in large groups? Yes! I was fascinated by these backpacks and the big cameras hanging around the neck of backpackers.
With passage of time the curiosity to know the world like a backpacker turned into a passion.
I started travelling like backpackers , though the journey was small but was interesting. Backpacking brings the real joy in you . It gives you the real picture of the world as you are not a tourist but a traveler. Slowly and gradually Backpacking is becoming famous among Indians too. In fact backpacking is the latest trend in Traveling
