Yeah wtf… I even traveled to countries where I had no place for the night, but knew I would get one spontaneously. Not great in certain countries, and you gotta know that, but 5 weeks?
Both of you are crazy. I’d never book a trip anywhere without the accommodations secured several months in advance. If I had to deal with the stress of finding the perfect hotel after I’ve already arrived at my destination, I’d probably have a panic attack.
But that’s not backpacking. It’s a journey without those limits to allow you freedom to change your mind.
I didn’t do it much but when I backpacked I tended to avoid public transport (hitch hiking) and would often just sleep in a city park or railway station. Different times now but it was part of the journey

This was when I was backpacking in Europe. These days it would stress me out too.
