“…of bandannas and backpacks”

by Melissa Atienza-Petri on December 8th, 2005

Most people associate backpacks with budget travelling.  So do I.

However, it is worth noting that bandannas are slowly creeping up and stealing the heads of several budget travellers all over the world. 

There was a time when those red bandannas in paisely are worn around the neck by cowboys and farmers. Now, it has morphed into a nifty companion for globetrotters.  Personally, I think it looks a lot cooler. 

I am a bandanna girl myself. I actually wanted the name “bandannatraveller” for this blog however, it got junked due to the obvious fact that it’s not really SEO friendly.  But, hey, I haven’t given up on that.  I will continue to wear my bandanna AND I have stubbornly decided to somehow include my bandanna obssession over at Europe String.  

Presenting the new category called “…of bandannas and backpacks”.  With this caregory, I hope to encourage you, readers, to start sending in pictures of yourself (or any other traveler) wearing your/their bandannas and/or backpacks.  With your help, we can try and take over the travel blogging world, one bandanna/backpack at a time.

Send them to me over at melissa@b5media.com.
