Don’t Go Into Debt

Travelling abroad can be costly specially when you add up flights, transport, accommodations and food costs, having to travel abroad will leave a dent in your wallet. Making sure you save money before going on an adventure is a most and making sure you stay away from debt is importunate, you don’t want to come back knowing you have to pay of 1000’s of pounds/dollars/euros etc. great tip, don’t travel unless you have the money.

If you come back from a holiday you will have inspiration and excitement, you don’t want to be coming back knowing you have deb to pay, that inspiration will disappear with stress and worry.

Step out of your Comfort Zone

Travelling is all about experiencing life to its full potential, stepping out of that comfort zone even if you terrified is a most, even if its a little bit, only way you get to find out how far you have went unless you go out there and experience everything you can. even if its trying spice food and you are not usually a fan of eating spicy foods, drinking snakes blood, its all about experiencing things you never done before.

Sunrise is Better than Sunset…Some times

Waking up early morning is always a great way to start exploring specially seeing that beautiful landscape with the sunrise lighting, just makes it worth while and don’t forget them beautiful Instagram pictures you can have.


Pack Light

Don’t be Afraid to Talk to People

Travelling abroad is hard enough but sometimes not knowing the language can be harder so having to speak to people is difficult, but don’t be afraid to ask for help or ask locals to tell you the best places to go to, after all they know the place better then anyone, plus even if you embarrass yourself a little bit, if you on the move, you probable wouldn’t see yourself.
