ABOUT US

My name is Sam, I’m just like you: explorer, backpacker, passionate traveller who is not constrained by a single border. I am constantly looking to enrich my next travels. Originally from Canada, my homeland is often only a temporary stop while I continue to look for new destinations that will emerge me into the wonderful places that the world has to offer. Remember : Leave nothing but footprints and respect the locals!

Samuel Plante Backpacker

I created Fenceless out of a passion for travel and I sincerely believe that travelers are the warmest, most unifying and friendly human beings in the world. Thats why i worked sinced 2017 on this Off-The-Beaten path travel guide for backpackers! It was not always easy! Lots of mistakes, lots of research and programming. Beautiful collaborations which led to results that I am more than satisfied!

I encourage all visitors to leave a trace of their experiences and memories to enrich and facilitate the trip planning of our fellow backpackers. I hope that my work gives you a helping hand in planning your next trip and that it lives up to your expectations!

Fenceless Travel – We share discoveries

Cheers

Our mission

Fenceless is a community for travellers, founded in the principle of sharing knowledge. We encourage our users to exchange adventures and advice they may have regarding their favorite travel destinations around the world. Our goal is to facilitate travel planning. To this extent, we give our community a chance to take a glance at a variety of travel destinations. We provide further insight about a specific place’s whereabouts, activities and much more! We want to promote the “Leave No Trace” movement. This is based on the notion of minimizing impact practices for travellers that enjoy visiting the outdoors, all while protecting natural spaces and local communities.

It is a meeting point, the voice, the ears and the eyes to allow you to explore what is happening on dry land but mainly in the waves from here or elsewhere. Thanks to Quebec surfers and collaborators who make this sport a way of life and a passion, community spirit is an integral part of our essence and governs our actions.
