Thinking of checking out Central America & Mexico but need just a little more coaxing?

Click here for the full scoop on the Tucan Tour that capped off the Year of Living Dangerously. Dangerously? Ok, maybe the The Legendary Guatemalan Snoring Debacle took Stuart a little closer to extinction and flying down the side of volcano with only a small sheet of plywood between you and the ragged rocks 'could' be termed as dangerous, but really, can you actually call a 30m dive into a sinkhole 'dangerous'? I thought not.

Main Entry: flash·pack·er Pronunciation: "flash-"pak&r" Function:noun 1. a term derived from "flash" and "backpacking".
Flashpackers travel independently, alone or in a small group - just like backpackers - but they demand a higher standard of services, such as travel and accommodation, and are prepared to pay more for the privilege. The term flashpackers has also come to denote backpackers carrying expensive electronic gear, like laptops, cell or satellite phones, digital cameras, and GPS units. 2. traveller on a backpacker's budget with a LOT of tech gear.
I trust you’ll find some inspiration on these pages, and feel free to visit www.moderngonzo.com for more stories, pictures, advice and reviews. But note: I am not a guidebook. I claim no expertise, nor offer any guarantees. Like roll-on deodorant, travelling is an intensely personal affair. I’m just a normal guy who somehow found himself following, and sharing his dreams. Book the ticket, and let’s get packing.
