Traveling on a budget

if you are an american citizen,lucky for you because,there's no need for you to get a visa and go to europe and asia without the hassle of getting a visa and going to the embassy for application.you can just pack your things and hop to a plane.i can't do that.in the philippines,whenever i want to go outside of southeast asia,i have to secure a visa and apply at the their embassy.it's really painstaking because only a handful can be approved and so many were denied.anyway,all you can do is find a decent job and save 45% of your earninngs monthly so that you can buy ticket and have at least pocket money to spare for your food/transpo.also,find an agency where they can give you a thrift package tour.

You might want to check out The Lost Girls blog. They are a group of three young women currently travelling around the world on a very tight budget. They write about the places they visit, but they also explain how they do it, where to stay, how to get a part-time job in some of the countries etc. It's got a lot of information. http://www.lostgirlsworld.blogspot.com/ Cheers!
