    Setting off on a backpacking adventure requires careful planning to ensure a smooth journey and maximize the experience without overspending. First, defining a destination is essential, as this will shape your entire budget and itinerary. Research the cost of living, accommodation, and local transportation options for each location to get a clear picture of potential expenses. Some destinations are significantly more affordable than others, and being flexible with timing and locations can help you find the best deals. 
      
    Once you’ve chosen a destination, create a realistic budget that accounts for all expenses, including flights, lodging, food, excursions, and any emergency funds. To stick within budget, consider booking flights and accommodations in advance, as early bookings often offer the best rates. Use fare comparison websites, track fare fluctuations, and take advantage of promotions to secure low-cost flights. 
      
    Accommodation is another key part of planning. Backpackers often rely on budget-friendly options, such as hostels, guesthouses, or even homestays. For those looking to save even more, options like Couchsurfing or work-exchange programs can provide free lodging in exchange for volunteer hours. Research accommodation that fits your needs, and always read reviews to ensure safety and quality.

    The narrow Darién Gap, the only land bridge connecting South and Central America, encompasses a spectacularly hostile jungle, covered in steep mountains, dense rainforests, and flood-prone marshes. Known in Spanish as el infierno verde, or “the green hell,” it is one of the most inhospitable places in the world. Its terrain is too treacherous for roads, yet hundreds of thousands of refuge seekers contend with its horrors every year in the hopes of reaching the United States, still some three thousand miles away. And of the countless who set out for the border, an untold number never arrive. In this book, journalist Belén Fernández travels through the Darién Gap to report on the dehumanizing and deadly stretch of land that has become a mass graveyard for migrants. Fernández’s journey brings her into contact with refuge seekers, people smugglers, law enforcement officials, and many more whose stories bring life to a place overwhelmingly associated with death. Combining history, on-the-ground reporting, travelogue, memoir, and searing politico-economic analysis, she shines light on a largely made-in-the-USA crisis that has come to define our modern era.

    All the Wide Border: Wales...

    A Waterstones Travel Book of the Year 2023 
    A funny, warm and timely meditation on identity and belonging, following the scenic route along the England–Wales border: Britain’s deepest faultline. 
    There is a line on the map: to one side Wales, small, rugged and stubborn; on the other England, crucible of the most expansionist culture the world has ever seen. It is a line that has been dug, debated, defined and defended for twenty centuries. 
    All the Wide Border is a personal journey through the places, amongst the people, and across the divides of the border between England and Wales. Taking in some of our loveliest landscapes, and our darkest secrets, this is a region of immeasurable wonder and interest. It is here that the deepest roots and thorniest paradoxes of Britishness lie. The border between the countries, even as a concept, is ragged, jagged and many-layered. 
    Garlanded author Mike Parker has adored and explored these places his entire life. Born in England but settled in Wales, he finds himself typical of many in being pulled in both directions. His journey is divided into three legs, corresponding with the watersheds of the three great border rivers: the Dee in the north, the Severn in the centre, the Wye in the south. Neither quite England nor Wales, the furzy borderland he uncovers — the March — is another country. 
    Picking apart the many notions and clichés of Englishness, Welshness and indeed Britishness, Mike Parker plays with the very idea of borders: our fascination with them, our need for them, and our response to their power. In his hands, the England–Wales frontier is revealed to be a border within us all, and it is fraying, fast. 
    Mike Parker's All the Wide Border is a compelling exploration of the England-Wales border, blending history and social commentary in a series of insightful essays. This new addition to his collection of travelogues is a top pick for anyone interested in European history and culture. 
    For fans of Tom Bullough (Sarn Helen), Gavin Ortlund (Why God Makes Sense in a World That Doesn't), Tim Hannigan (The Granite Kingdom), Chloe Dalton (Raising Hare), and Samantha Harvey (The Shapeless Unease).
