The Far Flung Places
Ok, so we want to start off with this first, as we really do think that it’s the far flung places that everyone is missing out on. Australia, for example, is the one place that people want to go to so badly, but always associate it with a horrible cost. Whilst it is one of the more pricey countries out there, it isn’t always going to ruin your bank. Plus, there are some absolutely beautiful parts that you can explore if you get can get around. Car rentals are a must, but you can get super good deals. All you then have to do is think about how to get there. Plane tickets are usually the most expensive, but if you book each flight separately and switch your airlines when needed, we really do think it’s easy to get a cheap flight. It might mean that you’re making a couple of stops along the way, but it definitely does mean the cost will go down. These rules apply with all of the far flung places that you could go to! We really don’t think you should be limiting yourself.

Making Memories
Life is all about making memories, and what better way to do it than to make them through travel. Think of all of the experiences you’ll be having in all of these countries that you’ve never visited before. Think of all of the happiness you’ll feel when you’re experience different cultures and ways of life! Whether you go with friends, family, or your partner, you will be able to make the best memories.

How To Travel Freely
If you want to be able to travel freely, you just have to be able to do it frugally. You shouldn’t have to stay at the most fancy hotels, and have the most fancy experiences to travel. Just doing things simple and on a budget, and experience the country rather than the hotels, is the best thing that you can do.
