No, we are not a travel agency

Hi everyone!

As the title might indicate, we are not a travel agency nor do I intend to make any money out of this blog. I am merely here to give you some ideas for a low-budget vacation. That being said, I hope you will find a cash-strapped holiday destination and - method that you will enjoy. Maybe you'll enjoy it even more than a luxurious resort in the Bahamas.

On this website I will put the following details in a post (blog entry).

Estimated cost: [ It's an estimation. Maybe you ought to put the estimate cost a bit higher, just to be on the safe side. ]

Means of transportation: [ Long distance coaches, special discount fares by train, bicycle (=trekking; track racing), hiking and hitchhiking. ]
Min. duration: [ A minimum is needed as people might have to get back to work. ]
Sights to see: [ What can you expect from my vacation recommendation. ]
Accommodation: [ Tent, couchsurfing, hostels, B&B, and so on. ]
Season: [ I assume that a tent isn't the best way to spend some time off during the winter. That is why I have added this. ]
How to prepare for the holiday (requisites): [ e.g. a tent, a bicycle, an English/French dictionary, etc. ]
What you can expect: [ Explaining what might await you on your adventure. Maybe you are unfamiliar with a foreign culture or maybe there could be something that might shock you. ]

Various hotels, hostels, camping sites, B&B, campuses, pub accommodations, night trains, home trading platforms and monasteries.

Modes of transportation like long distance cycling, traveling per train, roadtrips, coaches, ferries and hitchhiking.

Different target groups will find a good traveling destination, whether you are a young student looking for something adventurous or you're a middle aged couple who wants to relax and have a break from all the stress. Adventure, sightseeing, distant/close-by, athletic or relaxing at a beach. Everything can be done with a strapped budget.
