About BucketListly

BucketListly is the travel blog of Pete R., a solo traveler, blogger and photographer who says he has spent more than 13 years on the road. The site publishes long, practical country guides and backpacking itineraries, claiming more than 800 guides and showing roughly 772 posts in the sitemap. Content covers destinations worldwide, with dedicated sections for regions and countries and lots of step-by-step planning material. Posts are image rich and the sample guide contains dozens of original photos, plus maps and highly practical, link-heavy advice for independent travellers.

If you want obsessively thorough trip planning, this is the blog to bookmark. The voice is first person and friendly, with travel anecdotes and clear "Pete's take" tips dotted through very long, practical guides. Reading feels like following a seasoned solo traveller who actually did the routes he recommends, from short city itineraries to six-month backpacking plans. The site is busy and current - the author posts several times a week and keeps an active stream of new country and regional guides. Standout pieces are the deep-dive destination guides, multi-week itineraries and occasional gear posts, all illustrated with many on-the-ground photos.
