Around The World In 15 Days

Want to see the world without going broke? It’s possible if you plan carefully. I recently traveled around the world in 15 days for less than $2,000. Here's how I did it:
1. Choose Affordable Destinations

Instead of visiting expensive cities like London or Paris, I opted for budget-friendly destinations like Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Ho Chi Minh City.

2. Travel During the Off-Season

I avoided peak tourist season by traveling in January. Prices were significantly lower, and I had many attractions all to myself.

3. Book Flights and Accommodation in Advance

To secure the best deals, I booked my flights and accommodation several months before my trip.

4. Stay in Hostels or Guesthouses

Instead of staying in hotels, I opted for hostels or guesthouses, which can cost as little as $10 per night.

5. Eat Street Food

Local street food is not only delicious but also incredibly affordable. I feasted on pad thai, spring rolls, and pho for a fraction of the cost of restaurant meals.

6. Visit Free Attractions

Many cities offer free attractions, such as parks, museums, and historical sites.

7. Take Advantage of Free Walking Tours

Free walking tours are a great way to explore a city and learn about its history and culture.

8. Get a Travel Insurance

Travel insurance provides peace of mind in case of unexpected events like lost luggage or medical emergencies.

9. Pack Light

Packing light saves you money on checked baggage fees.

10. Take Days Off

I planned rest days into my itinerary to avoid burnout. It also gave me time to catch up on laundry and plan the next leg of my trip.

My 15-day adventure around the world was an unforgettable experience that didn't break the bank. By following these tips, you too can see the world on a budget. Just remember to be flexible, open-minded, and ready for the adventure of a lifetime!
