Travel Budget Tips
So you want to travel lets just say long term?
Well you need to create a budget. Something that you can see clearly like putting it on a spreadsheet with...
Your Monthly Income
Your Expenses... EVERYTHING!
Your Total Spare Cash Each Month
These are the most important parts next is when, where and how long you wish to travel for. That is totally up to you and your plan everyones travel plans differ and no doubt when you're traveling your plans will change. I will use an example of you wish to travel for one year around Asia.
You will need to create a travel budget that will include...
Flights - I have always booked one way flights and go from there. Use Skyscanner
Travel Insurance - Essential - Don't question this.
Daily Food & Drink Budget - Do you eat or drink alot?
Visas - Depending on your nationality and where you're traveling to always research in advance.
Activity Budget - Scuba diving etc costs money so include a rough budget to include this.
Tech and Gadgets - Laptop, Camera and phone are essentials, the rest is up to you
Clothes - Take absolute bare minimum other countries do sell clothes and usually cheaper.
Now you should have some ideas in your head as to the amount of money you will roughly need and how much you will need to go traveling.
I haven't given any exact figures but as an estimate if you wish to travel Thailand for one year you could do it on $1000 usd per month as long as you're not a party animal. Thailand is a pretty cheap country compared to the west so you can travel and enjoy living a decent lifestyle with that monthly amount.
If you plan on traveling Australia then you will need a bigger budget as Australia is more expensive than Asia.
Like many travelers they want to see more and explore more as long as they can they all have the same dream in mind.
