Most casual travelers spend a week or two on the road and return to the comfort of their home, but what if that’s not enough for you? Embarking on a long-term trip may be a much better option, but it’s not as affordable. However, you can try to make it cheaper with these useful tips.

Slow Travel

Hopping from one destination to another will cost you a fortune during your long-term trips. Slow travel is a much better option because you’ll discover new ways to save money once you stick around in one place for longer.

Work & Travel

Long-term trips are not an option if you’re not earning enough to cover your expenses. Only consider them if you’re working remotely, looking for a job at your destination, or giving Workaway a shot so you wouldn’t have to spend money on accommodation.

Accommodation Choice

Speaking of accommodation, try to find an apartment that comes with a monthly rent because your expenses will be much higher if you pay your accommodation day-to-day.

Perfect Destination

We would all like to spend a month in Paris or New York, but you’ll have to be a little bit more realistic when choosing your destination. Pick a city where your expenses will be on the lower side, which includes accommodation, food, and public transportation.
