Water Proof Backpack

As for your information, they are usually natural or synthetic fabric that are laminated to or coated with a waterproofing material such as rubber, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), silicone elastomer, fluoropolymers and wax. This material is usually found in the water resistant and water proof product, as for an example, people now days would prefer more on the water proof backpack because when we travel, the weather always change and we want to save our belonging. 

The important of having a water proof backpack is so that the contents of the pack stay dry even if the pack is fully immersed in water. 
This specification is important for a hiker. For example, the hiker will never know what the weather will be like. There are few items that will need to be kept dry are things like your spare clothes, first aid kit, toilet roll, sleeping bag and food.

When hiking, you have a lot of gear that will get wet anyway, and eventually goes into your pack. Rain jacket, tent, cooking gear, a food bag that’s been hanging in a tree overnight as a bear-bag– some things just get wet and there’s not much you can do about it. If your equipment is wet, and you put it inside your pack, that ability of the pack to repel water is useless. The water gets inside one way or another.

Guinness World Record "The Longest Road Trip Ever"

In 16 July 2014, the longest driven journey that was made is 692,227 km (430,130 miles) and was acheived by a couple which is Emil and Liliana Schmid (Switzerland) who has travelled across 180 countries in the same Toyota Land Cruiser in a journey that starts on 18 October 1984 and still ongoing until now.

Since then, they have logged thousand more miles, so the total was over 450,000 these days. The couple start way back in 1984 when they shipped their Toyota Land Cruiser from Iceland to New York.

In the first decade of the trip, they spent on touring North America before heading to South America and then to Africa, Australia, Asia and back to Europe. After 30 years, the couple is still racking up the miles.

Their journey started simple enough when Emil convinced Liliana to leave Switzerland and explore the world. She tought that would be a maximum of 2 years, but clearly the travel bug took hold of them in full force and they have never looked back.

Interesting place for Backpackers

Broga hills atau lebih dikenali sebagai bukit broga yang terletak di semenyih sememangnya sudah terkenal dengan keindahan alama yang dapat dialami oleh pengujung.

Perjalanan yang mengabil kira-kira 45 minit untuk sampai ke puncak bukit ini sememangnya tidak merugikan malah amat memuaskan hati.
Bukit ini mempunyai ketinggian 390 meter dan 1279 kaki atas aras laut.
Bagi pengalaman saya, ianya mengabil masa lebih kurang 30 minit hingga satu jam pendakian untuk sampai ke puncak. Setelah tiba di puncak, akan ada satu sign board yang mengatakan Puncak Bukit Broga.

Bagi anda yang berminat untuk mendaki, ini merupakan salah satu candangan yang dapat saya kongsi buat masa ini.
