baby backpack tips image

I plan on backpacking europe next summer and don't even know where to start. How much should I save? Which country is best to start? How do I avoid tourist areas?
Answer
First thing, research. Try hostel.com for the hostels. Frommers.com for travel tips and to connect with other travelers.
For the budget airlines, there are so many...aer lingus, wizz air, bmi baby, german wings, ryan air, easy jet, thomsonfly, flybe...just look it up in the internet. Fact is, there are numerous budget airlines flying to the UK. Buy your tickets now and it will be so cheap. Cheaper than buying the Euro Railpass. In fact, there are several on sale now for travel next year.
First country - UK. I suggest the UK because for the language convenience. I gather that you are a native English speaker and people there speak English. While you are getting started backpacking, at least language will not be your problem.
You can make London your base and just go to other countries for a few days or a week.
As for your budget, $80 a day should be enough, including bus fare and minimal entrance fees, if you really can stay on the cheap. I have in mind that 1GBP=2USD.
Oh, one last thing, the fantastic museums in London are free!!! But you will thoroughly appreciate them enough though to donate.

What is the best way to fix a stucked zipper?
bulacanbag
My backpack which i seldomly use accumulated some unknown particles in the zipper which making it harder to move.
Answer
First, use an old toothbrush on zipper to remove as much of particles as possible. Second, rub a bar of bath soap on teeth of zipper, then try working zipper a little at a time, until it will zip and unzip smoothly. Using old toothbrush again, brush off loose soap residue.
You may need to rub the soap once every week or two for awhile and then maybe once a month for general maintenance of zipper.
I've also read that some people use a q-tip to apply small amounts of baby oil to the zipper. I don't like using oil due to the fact that oil spreads and soaks into the fabric and then can transfer to whatever touches it.
Good luck
