How Did I Start Traveling on a Low Budget?
I AM A BUDGET TRAVELER. Like you, I didn’t leave for my first trip with no money, of course! My budget was high but doing this more regularly I became more passionate about traveling and started looking for ways to travel longer and more often. When I started traveling, I used to travel staying in 5-star hotels, eating at expensive restaurants and I did that for two long years until the day I planned my first international trip. While I was planning a trip to Udaipur, I suddenly realized the same amount I am about to spend on this domestic trip would take me to a nearby country. I quit looking for expensive hotels in Udaipur and started searching for homestays and hostels in Malaysia. And two months later I was in Malaysia for 12 days living the best times of my life. And then I came up with the ultimate budget travel guide to Malaysia for my traveler buddies. Also, if you are planning your first international trip, I have some important tips.
