Introduction
Traveling full time can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. Traveling is a lot like love, in that it doesn’t make any sense until you try it. There’s no way to know what traveling full time will be like for you until you actually do it, but there are certain tips and tricks I’ve learned along the way that have helped me save money while traveling—and my family does not have an unlimited budget for this kind of lifestyle! Check out these six tips for traveling without financial risk:
1. Pick a location that you love and want to explore.
The first step to travel the world full-time is to pick a location that you love and want to explore. This can be anywhere in the world, as long as it’s not too expensive. The more affordable your chosen destination is, the more money will be left over for other things like flights and hotels!
Once you’ve settled on where to go, it’s time for step two: choosing where exactly in this location you want to live! The most important thing here is finding somewhere with good climate (and weather). You don’t want summer temperatures climbing into triple digits while still trying desperately not get sunburned because of how low UV rays bounce off snow slopes or glaciers–I speak from experience here–and winter temperatures dropping below freezing at night when all I wanted was another cup of hot cocoa before going back inside my sleeping bag…
2. Be willing to change your travel style as you go along.
As you travel, you’ll likely find that your style changes and evolves. You might prefer a hostel over a hotel at first, but then decide that hotels are more comfortable for you. This is totally normal and should be embraced! Be open to new experiences and willing to change as needed.
While it’s good to have some flexibility in your plans, don’t be afraid of making decisions either way if something doesn’t work out exactly how you want it too. For example: maybe there’s a place on your bucket list that seems like an amazing idea until someone tells you how much it costs or how difficult it would be getting there? Well then maybe don’t go after all! Or maybe they do tell me these things but I still really want this experience so I’m willing take on those challenges because there are plenty of other places where I could go instead.”
3. Take a language class and learn some basic phrases in the language of the country you are visiting.
- Take a language class and learn some basic phrases in the language of the country you are visiting.
Language is such an important part of culture, so take it upon yourself to learn at least a few basic words and phrases in your host country’s native tongue. It will go a long way toward making you feel more comfortable while abroad, and could even help you make friends with locals who speak English! If you’re feeling nervous about trying on-the-fly conversations with people who don’t speak English well enough for you to understand them back (or vice versa), consider using an app like Duolingo or Babbel to practice pronunciation before hitting the road–and once there, try using Google Translate as needed until your skills improve further over time…
4. Don’t compare your trip to someone else’s trip. Everyone travels differently, so don’t try to copy someone else’s itinerary or schedule because it does not have to be the same for everyone!
The only way to travel the world full-time is by doing it. You can’t compare your trip to someone else’s trip because everyone travels differently, so don’t try to copy someone else’s itinerary or schedule because it does not have to be the same for everyone!
You’re going on a journey, so embrace that fact and enjoy every minute of it!
5. Use Google to get around when you’re not sure where something is located or what bus number to take. It’s easy and usually free!
If you’re not sure where something is located or what bus number to take, use Google Maps! It’s easy and usually free.
I’ve found that using Google Maps is one of the best ways to get around when traveling in a foreign country. The app can be used for everything from finding restaurants nearby to getting directions between cities and towns (it even works offline).

6. Start saving early by setting up automatic transfers from your checking account into a savings account every month with a separate bank account that has no connection at all with your checking account or credit cards that allow overdraft fees if they happen to go over limit out of your control (ie stolen checkbooks). This can be done within minutes online by linking all of these accounts together through an app like ING DIAMONDBANKING on iPhone & Android (you do not have to have any ING bank accounts for this app) so there is absolutely NO excuse not to do this! . . . The more you can save up before leaving, the easier it will be 4U 2 travel full time w/o worrying about finances!
