Traveling can be a fun way to gain life experiences,especially during Spring Break﹣a week﹣long school vacation in the United States.But what if you're a student and don't have enough money for a trip?Don't worry.Here are some useful suggestions.
●Save:This probably is the most important preparation for traveling.Cut expenses to fatten your wallet so you'll have more choices about where to go and how to get there.
●Plan ahead:Don't wait until the last minute to plan your trip.Tickets may cost more when bought on short notice.Giving yourself several months to get ready can mean security and savings.
●Do your homework:No matter where you go,research the places you will visit.Decide what to see.Travel books will provide information on the cheapest hotels and restaurants.
●Plan sensibly:Write down how much you expect to spend for food and hotels.Stick to your plan or you may not have enough money to cover everything.
●Travel in groups:Find someone who is interested in visiting the same places.By traveling with others you can share costs and experiences.
●Work as you go:Need more money to support your trip?Look for work in the places you visit.
●Go off the beaten path:Tourist sites may be expensive.You may want to rethink your trip and go to a less﹣known area.Smaller towns can have many interesting activities and sights.
●Pack necessary things:The most important things to take are not always clothes.
Remember medicine in case you get sick,and snacks in case you cannot find a cheap restaurant.
●Use the Internet:The net can help to save money.Some useful websites include www.travelcity.corn,www.bargainslowestfare.corn and www.economictravelcity.com.
By planning sensibly,even students can enjoy the travel.Your travel experiences will be remembered for a lifetime.
