CURRENT MISSION

I'm currently roaming around the world crossing off my bucket list, and have all sorts of crazy misadventures.

Hi, I am Stephen Schreck from the popular [Travel Blog](https://www.abackpackerstale.com) A Backpackers Tale. I want to help people answer all their questions about traveling. So I am hosting this online event. Just head to the website and shoot me a travel question. I will answer quickly with the answers to everyone's questions as well. It is a great way to learn more about travel, best places to visit in the world, and budgets.

ABOUT ME

My name is Stephen Schreck. I’m a world traveler, vagabond, and a mistake prone backpacker. When I was 22 I went backpacking in Ireland for a couple weeks. The first time I traveled overseas was awe-inspiring and completely changed my life forever. From that moment on I have been a wanderer and traveling has become my obsession.
