With the restrictions on travel ban almost lifting, we all want to break free and travel the world. We wen through tons of Instagram pages and articles/Interviews of Travel Influencers and we have come with some amazing International tips that will help you save loads of money on your next foreign Trip.
Tip No. 1 - Eat Local
Eat local. Opt for more food stalls serving the local cuisine as opposed to cafes with international menus because eating what is regularly consumed in a country is always much cheaper (and tastier).
Tip No. 2 - Don't Forget to Use your Miles
We all travel every now and then an din return earn plenty of miles. While on your next trip don't forget to use those miles. Earning miles over time and using them to book flight tickets can make a trip that was way out of your budget, be absolutely free or at least make it affordable.
Tip No. 3- Switch to Airbnbs instead of Pricey Hotels
One trick that has always helped me save a good amount of money is switching to Airbnbs instead of hotels, especially for long trips. Airbnbs are very popular in European countries and are slowly gaining popularity in rest of the world as well. If you are planning long trips then you must consider them as you interact with local hosts and they can be your best guides. Sometimes these hosts go out of their way to help you and also tell you some local tips and tricks to enjoy the location to the fullest.
Tip No. 4 - Make Use of India's Vast geography
To save money, take a flight from the nearest Indian city. For instance, when you book a flight to Vietnam, if you fly from Kolakata you can save approximately Rs.10,000 as opposed to the cost of taking the flight from Delhi. You can take a train to the closest geographical location. Additionally, carry less stuff so that you have enough space to get more back. I love buying from flea markets and antique shops when I'm abroad, so I always carry travel cubes with me that help me stay organised.
Tip No. 5 - Try Couch-Surfing
Ditch the hotels, and even hostels, and try couch-surfing. You won't have to pay a fee, you'll get to live with a local and know the city like no other traveller, and possibly even make a friend in a new country. I do this very often when I travel alone internationally (I've also hosted travellers in India) and I highly recommend it. Just make sure you read the host reviews and find a host who's recommended by other travellers - safety should be the highest priority.
