Je prépare un tour du monde en régions chaudes (Asie du sud, Australie, Amérique du sud...) J'ai pris l'habitude du hamac en Amazonie. Y a-t-il d'autres régions oû il est couramment utilisé ? Est-ce-que ça vaut la peine de l'emporter ? Merci.
coucou eidyl, j'ai voyagé au mexique il y a 2 ans puis en asie du sud est en ce qui concerne le hamac au mexique c'est un investissement vu les prix excessifs de l'hebergement cependant en ase tu peux l'emporter mais tu pourras dormir de 1 EUROS à 5 EUROS dans la cat bon marche tu peux toujours accroché ton hamac devant les bungalows y a la place pour .
Au Cambodge on utilise beaucoup les hamacs... Le soir, ils se deploient dans les parcs et au bord des routes, les conducteurs de rickshaws ou les sans abris s'y abritent 😉 Doublés, pratiques contre les moustiques et autres bestioles, ils sont en nylon bien solides, et ne coutent presque rien.
En Inde aussi dans des tranquilles guest houses, beaucoup de voyageurs accrochent le leur ou ils peuvent, formant parfois une sorte de méli mélo d'hamacs très sympa 😎
En Australie, dans le Queensland, le camping sauvage est autorisé, tu l'installes ou tu veux au bord d'une plage ou au sommet d'une coline...
En Asie on en trouve à Bangkok, près de la kao san, au marché russe de Phnom Penh, dans les boutiques de Goa... Ca coute rien. J'en ai fait faire un en Inde, 4 mètres sur 3 de toile bien épaisse, il m'a servi et servi... Que du bonheur 😎
Merci beaucoup pour cette réponse prècise au sujet du hamac. Amitiés.
Lydie
(P S) : j'ai apprécié que tu aies pris la peine de m'envoyer une réponse imagée, colorée, qui me fait déjà rêver...
We're leaving in 5 months for a 10-month family trip, and I'd love to hear from families who've lived this experience—what tips and lessons you took away.
How did the adaptation go? It must feel really strange not having a... structured day, I can't find the right words.
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi,
We’d like to visit South America (among other places) with a vehicle, and I have a question about Chile and Argentina.
A lot of "spots" are right on the border between these two countries, and I was wondering how to visit them since we’re not in a rush. Should we cross the borders without stopping so we don’t have to backtrack later, or should we explore the Chilean side first, for example, and then the Argentine side afterward?
Thanks for your thoughts and advice! :)
I'm one of the future round-the-world travelers, leaving on July 2, 2012.
This is my first time gearing up, and I don’t want to make a mistake with my backpack. I’ve already done quite a bit of research, but I was wondering if you could help me refine my choice.
Needs:
- Around 50L backpack
- Comfort as a priority
- Lightweight
- Designed for a woman’s back (I’ve read on other forums that this really makes a difference)
- Durable fabric (water-repellent is a bonus)
- Max load of 7/8 kg
> I don’t need gadgets for experienced hikers (spots for trekking poles, ice axes, etc. = useless for me and just drives up the price)
A salesperson had me try two models in-store with weights—they’re very comfortable (though I don’t have anything to compare them to).
These models don’t have small front pockets—are those essential?
They don’t come with a rain cover, but I’ll buy one if I go with either of these.
My buddy Christian and I (Patrick) set off for 28 days in Argentina in March.
We’ve already shared several trips together (Bolivia Peru, Namibia, Laos, Costa Rica).
Since we figure that at our age (65) we won’t be coming back here—there are just too many other places in the world to discover—we did the "grand tour" of Argentina.
Hi there,
We’re planning to cross the land border between Costa Rica and Panama along the Pacific coast. Has anyone got any info? I’m not finding much online. From which city in Costa Rica can we catch a bus?
Thanks in advance.
We're leaving for a round-the-world trip in April and we'd love to share it with our parents, friends, and other travelers. We want to create a website where we can upload photos and provide useful info. However, we're not exactly tech-savvy 😕. We still have two months to get things ready.
Would you have any tips for creating such a site, assuming we'll need to update it from internet cafés?
