Do you want to drink from a coconut, reach new heights trekking among the clouds, dance the night away in a salsa bar, talk till the sun comes up with someone you met just a few hours before?
And you have no idea how you ever could.
Let me help… I wanted to share some useful tips about how I learned to save money for traveling.
Because in the beginning, before I was studying at PIM , I had to save up on my own. It didn’t come naturally either. In fact, I used to be horrible at saving money. Here are my tips!
- Cancel your subscriptions. Netflix, Spotify etc. You can find so much great content and music online for free.
- Do your own nails, facials, waxing etc. For me I do anything that I can do such as haircuts and color.
- Start paying for things with cash. You’ll be more mindful about your spending and start to value your hard-earned cash more.
- Sell items you no longer need or use. I often sales my old clothes or handbags on Facebook group. I am surrounded by toys and items I never use. I am putting the money from everything I sell into a different account. It motivates me to watch it grow, inspiring me to sell more stuff I just don’t need.
- Join the library and stop paying for books. Libraries are really fascinating places with so many opportunities to learn or discovery new stories. Get involved.
- Drink more water. When you would normally reach for a can of Diet Coke, have water. Same goes for a drink at the pub. Not only will save cash but you’ll be healthier and more focused
- Stay focused and don’t give up.This is the biggest one. Remember why you are saving and what it means to you. Try to enjoy the process and become more outcome focused as the outcome of saving all this cash will mean you have options to do whatever the hell you like!
