Backpack Me is the creation of couple Ashray and Zara, who cleverly market themselves as A&Z. Ashray is from India, Zara is from Portugal, and the couple met in Dubai. Today, their home base is Lisbon, but A&Z still write about their experiences bouncing around the globe and offer tips to help others follow their lead. These two are certainly busy and also spearheaded a second website for foodies called Lisbon in 100 Bites.
