What is a Champagne Backpacker?
We are all looking for a unique experience in the places we visit. A Champagne Backpacker gets to the heart of a new destination. We explore, experience and become apart of the culture. (Read about Champagne Backpackers in the news!)

Why is Travel Style important?
CheckPointBlack is about connecting with people who travel like you. Unlike other travel resources, we give you an opportunity to get to know the person behind the recommendation. If you take travel advice from people who are adventurous when you are high maintenance you may end up finding yourself sleeping under a rock after a long days hike instead of relaxing in a five star luxury hotel room!

What is CheckPointBlack mean?
It's your CheckPoint on the road. This is your centralized place to check in to find your friends, to meet other travelers, to get new ideas and to see what others have experienced. Why Black? We are not just any site. Our community has edge and loads of style.

Have Questions?
Contact Us or speak directly to CheckPointBlack founders (and the ultimate Champagne Backpackers!)

Three essentials for India:
GET YOUR VISA ORGANIZED AHEAD OF TIME.  The Embassy wait can be brutal!

A-Z of Adventure Travel Insurance from World Nomads as you will probably get "Delhi Belly."

Hostelworld was a great help for finding cheap, but decent accommodation in India!
