Travelling on a budget

If you are wishing to go travelling maybe after finishing your exams or taking a year out of work before you start a family, you may need to do it on a budget.

There are many ways in which you can try and save money when travelling and below I have listed a few:

Work when you travel – the best way to fund a travelling trip is to work whilst travelling. This may not always be an option, but being a holiday rep, waitress / waiter and bar staff jobs are often easy to come back and will give you a bit of spending money as well as allowing you tie off to travel around.

Going in numbers – The more of you that go, often the bigger discount you can get in terms of accommodation, entry in to attractions and plane / train tickets etc.

Buy food from a supermarket or local market and cook it yourself rather than eating out every day.
