You will learn how to sleep standing up. :D You're not seriously suggesting this is a serious site, are you? Edit: Okay, after having gone further than the off-putting first page, the site seems okay-ish. They should really do something about the layout though... and maybe a slight note that it actually has serious content and isn't just for a laugh.

ThaMoJo Guest	# Posted: 21 Apr 2004 13:42:25 Travelling on a really low budget is actually quite an art. I've met people on the road who travelled on NO budget. Amazing! It's all possible, you just have to really want it, or be forced to I guess. Websites like these are a good introduction to it, but you really have to experience it to understand how much sense those advices make. So far I haven't found that many websites that really focus on low/no-budget travel. Pity... These are the few I like: http://www3.sympatico.ca/donna.mcsherry/becheap.htm http://www.sleepinginairports.com/ Regards, Johann Munich, Germany

LordTurtle Member Nevada, USA	# Posted: 13 Feb 2005 04:37:26 Having read and thoroughly explored scores of travel/travelogue/backpacking sites I think one of the very best concerning budget is related as a link from here and has a excerpt from her journal, WWW.LedbyDestiny.com, or www.hitchhiketheworld.com, both by Kinga&Chopin. Two awesome people who arrived in NY from Europe with only 600$ to travel around the world with. Talk about an achievement!!! This is a truly impressive journey!!! I think it depends totally on the TYPE OF TRAVELLING YOU EXPECT TO DO; hitching, walking alot, camping, hostels, hotels,etc,. I am planning to do everything on my RTW, leaving June '06. Budget set currently for $25. a/day, not including three airfares tickets. I expect to work while I travel and make more to strengthen my resources, but that is what I expect .....LordTurtle
