Two unlikely traveling partners, a free-spirited hippie and a rigid ex-bureaucrat, embark on a wild and absurd backpacking journey through the galaxy, discovering new worlds, bizarre cultures and wild characters along the way.
Astropackers tells the story of an unexpected backpacking trip across the galaxy, where two unlikely travel companions will live the most absurd and crazy adventures.
Norman, unbeknownst to him, belongs to a rare species known as Camaleonis Dualidaris. As a result of a strange occurrence, he falls into a wormhole and becomes trapped in a meticulous and rigid extraterrestrial.
