Using a spending app
Using a spending app to save money is a great way to stay on top of your spending and save for travel. These apps will automatically track your daily spending and monthly commitments, then stash the money you’d otherwise spend on everyday necessities into your savings account. And because they’re automated, you don’t have to worry about constantly feeding them with information and making changes to your budget. It’s like having your own personal assistant to manage your finances.
Visit Local Markets
Traveling is often centred around food, so eating local is always the best way to save money. The best part about eating local is that you can always find a great deal and still feel authentic. Most cultures are built around street food, so you can easily find a variety of options that are both affordable and authentic. Stick with the local vendors that have a long line and good reputations. It is worth the effort to get out of your hotel room every once in a while, and experience the local food, too.
Budgeting
If you’re an expat, you’ve probably had to budget for travelling while on a tight budget. Here are a few tips to help you plan your trip while on a limited budget. Planning ahead can help you set a realistic budget and determine your travel dates and duration. Booking time off from work is one way to make this easier, as is planning a trip around school semesters. You can also firm up your travel plans before leaving home.
