Travel is for everybody
I believe that travel is for anyone who dreams of getting out and exploring whether it be a new culture or your own backyard.
You don’t need to be rich, experienced, living out of a backpack, confident, or fluent in a hundred different languages to see the world.
You need to have a dream, a bucket list, and a desire to experience new places and be open to expanding (or stepping out of) your comfort zone.
Travel doesn’t have to be expensive
Unless sleeping in a glass igloo under the stars or perhaps a treehouse in the arctic forest is on your bucket list, travel doesn’t have to be expensive.
People have the preconceived notion that travel is only for those who earn 6 figures or have a large trust fund waiting for them but this isn’t true.
There are many ways to travel on a budget and to find the best deals on long-haul flights to make your travel dreams come true.
My Experience Travelling on a Budget …
When I moved to Scotland I had a one-way ticket, $500 (probably £250), and a dream of travellling Europe for a year, little did I know this would turn into 5 years.
I travelled around Europe with a Eurail Pass and a daily budget of $150 AUD for four months and came home with so many amazing memories of epic experiences that will last us a lifetime.
If you have a dream of travelling, you can make it happen and I want to help you!
