Welcome to my Outdoor Adventure Travel Blog
About Ron Robbins
Hi, I’m Ron Robbins – welcome to my outdoor adventure travel blog Active Planet Travels! Deciding the traditional “9-5 career” was not for me, when I turned 19 I started this blog to document my travels as I went about exploring all around the world.
Discovering both off the beaten path destinations as well as the local life within mainstream cities, I really enjoy gaining worldly knowledge while sharing these experiences with you!
As an independent backpacking travel blog that bases its articles on real life experience, take a look around and you’ll find loads of information, backpacking tips, and outdoor travel products related to the travel industry to help make your next adventure the adventure of a lifetime.
