I suggest packing lots of vowels and consonants, they'll come in handy when trying to communicate.

Somewhat more seriously:

Agree, what lanauge is that??? :???:

Is this so called Singlish??? or IT English? I certainly hope not all IT and Singaporeans speak and write like this, it's rather frightening! :o

I think even people who can help , after reading this post, would be having difficulties to reply.

Suggest you do an internet search on *backpacking*, it's easier self-learning, or else you be specific, narrow down on the areas you really want to know about.

Is it the bag itself? or how to pack? (that also depends on where you're going, what you're doing)?

Certainly can help! but you need to be more specific....

I'm a backpacker, even relocating to Singapore I only carried one backpack, ok and one more suitcase :lol:

what you want to know? different countries you want to travel to you can use different types of backpacks....from 30L to 75L, or you want to know how to pack?

or you want to know what to bring? again, season wise, I brought mine from swimming wear to ski thick coat, from jandles to thick hiking boots...from camping gear to cookingware hahahah :lol: :roll:

tropical or not? medecine, you need all the jabs before you go , prevent all those illness...ie. malaria, hyp A, B...etc..etc..

pack light, put money everywhere, hide it, sew it within the clothe layer...etc...

there's so much to talk about backpacking.....WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW mate?
:roll:
