How to book cheap and cheerful trip?

Let's be honest, traveling is expensive! Between the costs of getting there, paying for a roof over your head and all the food and fun in between, the total can quickly get out of hand. Students are constantly learning about when to splurge on certain items and when to save my coins. One thing to realize is that you don’t have to spend a fortune when exploring the world! The internet can be an excellent tool if you wisely use it to your advantage. 

Use websites such as Skyscanner and Kayak.com to find the cheapest flights. These sites search and compare every airline so you don’t have to find the best flights to suit your requirements.

Hotel booking websites like Expedia are excellent search tools to find hotels that suit your needs, however hostels are always cheaper (if you’re willing to sacrifice some creature comforts). Hostelworld is the best place for just that. Airbnb is a well trusted hospitality service and has fantastic properties for good prices. There are plenty of traveling websites online which offer traveling vouchers and discounts. Use these to your advantage to get a discount on necessities. Even if you can’t save money, these blogs are a reliable source for recommendations.

If you’re in the same city or country for more than a day or two, it’s worth investing in a city pass or welcome card. Usually, the cards give you unlimited access to public transport and free passes or discounts to popular attractions.
