About the Lite Backpacker

Hello, I’m Helen, AKA The Lite Backpacker – an Australian with an English accent (thanks to having one English parent) on the 30 side of my 20s.

Instead, within 6 months I had booked my next trip, with a vow of finding a way to enjoy travel food without the weight gain. Read More about “About Me”…
