Your Travel Goals, Have You Fallen Behind?
When I was young, I wanted to travel.
I used to read lots of National Geographic magazines and dream about the places that I could once visit. I was really fascinated by Iceland, and for some reason, the Seychelles islands in the Indian ocean.
It wasn’t until the age of 21 that I even stepped on an airplane, when I had my first long flight going from California to Hawaii.
I always had the dream to travel the world.
I wanted to see the Greek Isles, and the pyramids of Egypt, and swim in the warm lagoons of Tahiti. I wanted to wander in the streets of Paris, see Versailles, and go “down under” to Australia and New Zealand.
I wanted to go to Fiji.
I was curious about all these exotic cities like Hong Kong, Singapore, and Istanbul.
And when I finally accomplished my dream, and traveled the world, I felt relief. I felt like I could live the rest of my life without regretting not having seen the world.
Do you dream about traveling? Have you fallen behind on your travel dreams and goals? Do you wonder how you could afford those trips?
I used to always think that traveling was expensive.
That paying for traveling was the ONLY way.
When I found out that my friend Shelli was traveling the world, flying first class and staying in high-end hotels for almost nothing, I wanted to know how she did it.
And then I uncovered an entire universe that I wasn’t even aware existed, where it’s possible to catch up on your travel dreams at a price anyone can afford.
I’m talking about spending only a few hundred dollars instead of thousands and thousands of dollars.
I’m talking about getting a trip that would normally cost $8000 for less than $250.
Dreaming big doesn’t cost anything.
But traveling big for very little is also possible.
If you’ve fallen behind on your travel goals I want you to know that you’re not alone. And it’s not your fault. Nobody showed you that it was possible.
It starts with a dream.
Where do you want to go?
Do you want to build a travel portfolio that will make you the envy of everyone you meet? If that’s the case, you’ll want to include Paris, Rome, the pyramids of Egypt, and Hawaii on your bucket list!
Maybe you want to experience new cultures. Places like China, Thailand, and Japan will give you this.
I personally have a fascination with islands. And the farther they are from everything, the more excited I am about visiting them! That’s how I feel about the South Pacific.
But it’s really up to you. It’s your goal and your travel dreams.
It’s good to have a goal, but how are you going to get there? How will you realize these dreams?
There are many techniques that can help you, but essentially you need a system to help you reach those goals and fulfill those dreams at fraction of what it would normally cost.
What if you could pay almost nothing for airfare (just enough to cover taxes) and pay nothing for hotels?
I haven’t found how to pay nothing for restaurants or food, short of dumpster diving or stealing, so you’re going to need to spend a bit for that. But I don’t consider that an extra spending because that’s something we need to do all the time anyway.
If you manage to handle the flight and hotel for almost nothing, you can have a truly memorable trip, maybe going on tours that you normally couldn’t afford.
