How to solve the travel expenses of the student party?

In fact, it is very normal to travel now, but it is worth mentioning that there is nothing to worry about when traveling, but some friends who are still at school are not so lucky. Open source

There are many ways to work, such as tutoring, part-time, etc., but there may be many standard deviations in the income of the same job in each region, so I suggest you find those with high income, such as working in Zhoushan restaurant in 27-8, when it was only 7 yuan/hour, and tutoring 6 yuan/week (two classes). Obviously, if I choose these ways at that time, I will definitely not be able to afford my travel expenses.

so in 27, I took advantage of the good e-commerce market and made some money. At the same time, I got a tour guide certificate in my sophomore year (generally, our school didn't recommend you to take it until my junior year, and seven students in our own class didn't believe in evil, and five of them got it). As I said earlier, I just gave up those Mao Dengsan and some professional courses (our department head and class teacher were very open and gave me the green light) to take a tour group (mainly some central and eastern coastal areas and Yunnan, Sichuan and Xinjiang for 3-6 days). Roughly running through the country is mainly because the tour groups are definitely skimming the water and can't play a place thoroughly. Because I belong to a Buddhist school, I don't pay much attention to tourists' shopping at my own expense, and my income is average, so the tour guide is definitely not suitable for me. After graduation, I went to work in a tourism technology company.

many people will ask, now that the e-commerce market is not good, it is impossible for us to take the tour guide card. How can we break it? In fact, I think the present era is even better than ours at that time and there are more opportunities. At that time, we were all in the PC era, and the mobile phones we used now seem to be antiques. How can we all be in the mobile Internet era now, as long as you have your own skills and don't earn too much?

For example, a female student intern from our company usually sends a yin, and has accumulated almost 1, fans. Now she receives some small advertisements and lives comfortably. I also know a student who likes to eat himself, and his skills are better. He opened a private cake outside the school and his business is also very good. In short, you have a skill, people can't be lazy, and there are still many ways to open source. Those who often ask how to make money without thinking too much are basically poor in autonomy, and it is normal to make no money for traveling. Throttling

Throttling doesn't mean you have to travel in poverty. Now, I hate that some media or some students brag about their prowess and spend very little money traveling in many countries. Traveling in poverty means that your travel quality is definitely poor, and sometimes there are even security risks (for example, in Myanmar, in order to save accommodation at night, you take a night bus, you don't know how rough the driver is driving, and the local transportation infrastructure is poor, and there is a cliff below, which is actually very dangerous).

then how to reduce expenditure? Air tickets and accommodation are the bulk of travel, so you can cut down on the cost of air tickets and accommodation, and basically the travel expenses will not be very high.

1. Reduce the cost of air tickets

a. Pay more attention to the member day promotion of some airlines (except the well-known low-cost airlines, other airlines have member day promotion every month, so it is definitely more cost-effective to buy on the member day than you usually do).

b, rational use of airline ticket points

I'm not very good at points myself, but there are some airline points gods in Zhihu. You can refer to their articles and strategies.

2. cut down on accommodation

a. lower the level of accommodation

under the condition of ensuring safety and cleanliness in advance, you can of course choose youth travel bunk or homestay. Of course, I have said that safety and cleanliness are prerequisites.

b, reasonable use of hotel group's points and promotion

Hotel groups often promote sales, and sometimes high-end hotels in Bali cost more than 3 RMB a night. Of course, don't forget the hotel points. The points are used well and the hotel stays well. I'm sorry, I'm still not good at the hotel points myself.

3. OTA's promotion activities

No matter what platform, it is a good platform that can give us preferential treatment, so remember to compare air tickets with hotels before booking. Sometimes, some OTA platforms will send a lot of coupons, which are cheaper than booking in official website or official website.

4. Grasp the sales rules of hotels and air tickets

For example, if you book at the same hotel from 6 pm to 1 pm, you may be surprised! For example, I booked a hotel when I went to Singapore last year. The original hotel of about 16, more than 4 will be done. (Because I am afraid of being judged as an advertisement, it is not convenient to post the price screenshot.) Because the hotel will make some price adjustments according to today's vacancy situation, it is better to earn less and lower the price promotion if it cannot be sold. Of course, this situation is relatively rare in popular holidays and high-star hotels (because high-star hotels should also take care of their own brands). Integration and utilization of resources

In the integration and utilization of resources, some people say, for example, some OTA or hotel experiencers, but the opportunities are too few and the conditions are harsh. I mainly suggest that college students pay attention to these ways.

1. Volunteer travel website experience hall or coordinator

Volunteer travel is very popular now, and there are many volunteer travel websites. The places they put are much more than those of some hotels' OTA-recruited experiencers, and then the requirements are lower. As long as you have a good face or a skill (such as shooting vlog and editing videos), your selection rate will be greatly improved. I also know that many volunteer websites now pay special attention to those who can shoot and edit, and the video photos are taken well, together with their publicity. )

2. Take advantage of the special promotions of some travel agencies

I worked as an intern in a travel agency for a while before, and then worked in a travel technology company for a while after graduation. Seriously, travel agencies are not all as black-hearted as the media describes. Except for November, summer vacation and Spring Festival, the tour groups promoted by travel agencies in the off-season are really favorable (those in 1 yuan, Yunnan, Hong Kong and Thailand are not included). For example, I recently saw a semi-self-help tour from Shanghai to Manado for 1,599 yuan, 4 nights and 5 days (excluding 45 taxes, although there is a shopping store, it is not compulsory to spend; As for your own expenses, you can find it yourself. You don't need to follow the tour guide to register at all, and people won't force you. I think this is quite good. Of course, everyone still needs to be screened. If there are 5-6 shopping stores in 7 days, there are still many self-funded ones.

3. Now it's the self-media era, which is much better than when I was in college. You can make use of your own skills and keep accumulating fans. Whether you are at school or after graduation, your path will be much wider.
