Saving money for your travels
Saving money is one of the first steps to take if you are serious about traveling. Sound like a daunting task or just a step in the right direction? We think the latter…
Saving is easy once you put your mind to it. Ask yourself two questions: (1) What are you currently spending money on and (2) What could you eliminate from your daily spending in order to help build a nest egg for travel?
You might go out twice a month with friends for a $50 dinner inclusive of drinks and tip. This may not seem like much, but for six months it will add up to $600. And in many parts of the world $600 can account for an entire month of food and lodging.
Pretty easy, right? Begin by downloading some of our free planning forms and checklists below to see where you stand and how you might make considerable adjustments to your spending habits and improve the likelihood for international travel.
