Budget Travel

Home / Budget Travel

The only real way to keep traveling and working a normal 9-5 is to learn how to travel without spending your life’s savings. You can travel SOMEWHERE on ANY budget. If traveling is truly a priority and something you want to do, it can be done! Here you will find tips on:

  • Finding the best deals on flights
  • The cheapest accommodations for groups, couples, etc
  • How to save money while on the road
  • Weekend trips that are easy on the wallet
  • Cheapest forms of transportation, etc

Elizabeth and I have surprised ourselves on how cheap we have been able to keep our trips. Obviously, transatlantic flights will be a little pricey. However, overall, they have been reasonable, even flying from a state that doesn’t have an international airport. And once we get to our destination, we are able to minimize costs to make the price of the trip affordable!

Budget travel doesn’t have to mean nasty hotels and hitch-hiking. Learn to get reasonable prices on necessary expenses. Save money in one place to afford a fun activity in another!
