About the author
Introduction
Free car rental? Private room for less than 5 American dollars? Intercontinental plane ticket while paying only the airport fee? Eat and drink without money? International bus for almost a dollar? Cruises from 20 dollars a day? These and many more tricks are waiting for you along this book, but take your time. Before that, let’s realize about why it’s so good to travel.
Among many positive points, through traveling you can: become braver and independent, shutdown the worries and stay more relaxed, learn new languages and abilities, meet interesting people and make new friends, taste novel flavors and scents, appreciate more what do you have, sharpen your creativity, try out the real freedom, keep memories for all your life and stories to tell, admire the beauty of the nature, break down prejudices and paradigms, perceive that it’s easy to live without too much, be surprised and undergo unimaginable experiences, fall in love, inspire and discover what you’re looking for… and, of course, have fun!
Are you still not convinced that you need to travel? According to a recent scientific paper in the field of philosophy by Gilovich and Kumar, the happiness provided by new experiences lasts longer than the acquisition of a new possession. This is due to mechanisms like adaptation, which reduce drastically the perceived happiness of something that became routine, and the sharing of experiences with other people, which has the opposite effect and it’s much more effective with travels. Moreover, according to a survey by Forbes magazine, one of the biggest regrets of people's lives is not traveling enough. Do you want a bunch more inspiration? Then head on to the Nomadic Samuel’s Top 100 Travel Blogs fully loaded with stories of people who do travel a lot and explanations on how can they afford to do that.
The choice is yours. Fortunately, you don’t need to choose between only travel or buy if you embody the ideas presented herein that will prove traveling doesn’t need to be expensive unlike common sense. This independent manual won’t advise you to stop enjoying the good stuff in a trip in exchange for pennies but, among other things, to get rid of unnecessary luxuries to most of us. The book will guide you so you can do more for less, teaching good practices in each of the topics related to costs during a stay out of your home, whatever your type of trip it is: weekend ride with your family, vacation with friends abroad, gap year backpacking alone around the world and else.
This book seeks to be at the same time broad enough to embrace the largest share of the destinations in the globe without being too much specific for one place or too shallow. As this guide has been written to
