Backpacker Video of the Week

Posted by Dave on 31 August 2007.

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Now that I’m playing with the idea of incorporating video into my blog and travels, I’ve started to spend time exploring what’s posted on YouTube. For the next few months, I’ll post my favorite backpacker videos every Friday.

To kick things off, I was excited to find the 4-minute European montage from the movie “The Rules of Attraction.” When I first saw this part in the movie, it instantly reminded me of my backpacking trip in Europe (minus the models, heavy drug use, Ferrari, and Paul Oakenfold).

Parental warning: Clip includes dirty language, brief nudity, and lots of drug references. Enjoy!

PS – the line “we drink Absinthe at a bar called Absinthe” is timely, as I just posted a poll in the left sidebar tied to when I should imbibe a shot of the green fairy. Please be sure to cast your vote!
