G'day everyone.

My name is Dave and I run a company called bakpacker.com - a new marketing concept that provides commission free bookings to travel operators.

I've worked on both sides of the fence in travel - first as a retail agent and manager at Flight Centre and also as a supplier, running a backpacker transport company in Australia and NZ called Wicked Campers. Before getting the travel bug, I worked in finance and the military for a number of years and I have to say, the backpacking industry is WAY more fun.

Finally, I'd like to offer a freebie to any hostel owner/manager out there. To help launch our site, we are offering a free 6 month trial to hostelmanagement.com readers. If you are sick of paying commissions, you can get more details here.

Cheers,
Dave
