How can students stay more economically and safely when traveling abroad?

As a female college student who often walks alone, I still have some experiences to share!

1. Internship/Volunteer Travel

Compared with the three or five-day holiday in a hurry, it may take a month or two to deeply appreciate the charm of this city.

College students usually have some practical internship needs in winter and summer vacations. If you go to your favorite city to find an internship, you can not only complete the internship task, but also go where you want to go. You can visit your favorite city on weekdays or weekends and visit this city like a local. I went to an internship in a professional-related company during my junior summer vacation. Although the salary of internship is not high, it can meet my daily consumption. Not only did I practice, but I didn't spend any money at home ~

Internship must find a good company, try to choose a company that can cover or have accommodation subsidies to solve their own accommodation problems. Generally, volunteers travel with food and shelter, but they are not paid, and they must learn to identify them, otherwise they may meet some unscrupulous bosses.

2. Stay in a youth hostel

Compared with hotel rooms, the price of a bed for youth travel is cheaper (you can have a bed for 30-50). Although the personal space between six people is relatively small, regular youth tours are generally safer and more secure, and maybe you can meet more interesting souls during the trip.

3. Pay attention to the discount of travel group buying platform.

Before booking, compare multiple platforms and choose the cheapest one. For example, I use more platforms for where to go and the US delegation. Occasionally, there will be some price difference between the two platforms, and I will decide which one is cheaper.

For example, the same tent in Wugong Mountain, I certainly choose the platform with low price.

Students recognize securities. Now, in order to encourage college students to travel, most platforms have a student certification section, and they can enjoy discounts or coupons after certification.

After the first certification, the money was reduced and the discount was given.

4. If there is no hotel ...

Massage parlors Now many massage parlors can not only massage, but also eat delicious food and watch TV, which costs tens of dollars a night! For example, gold seal. (You can go to Idle Fish to find a member to help you pay, which is cheaper than buy buy on the platform or buy buy offline! )

Bathing centers Bathing centers in some cities are very affordable. A bath ticket of tens of dollars can stay in it for more than ten hours, and you can also take a bath and sleep on the sofa bed. (Be sure to pay attention to the screening of comments on the group buying platform, and choose a formal one with a separate lounge for men and women. )

If Haidilao is in a hurry to catch the early bus, you can go to Haidilao for a discount meal as a student and then have a rest in Haidilao. The waiter in Haidilao will also give you a blanket to look after your luggage!

I didn't buy a ticket at the right time some time ago, so I had to return in the early morning, but I think it's too uneconomical to book a room. On the group buying platform, I saw the package of an Internet cafe near the train station, and 35 yuan booked a double room to kill the waiting time by eating fried chicken while watching a movie. (Internet cafes generally smell like smoke, so don't try it.) Regular Internet cafes are actually very safe, and no one will bother you in a single room.
