113. Heather on Her Travels – "After transport and accommodation, the biggest cost of travel must be food, particularly in Europe where eating out is very expensive compared to other destinations such as Asia and South America," writes Heather Cowper, from Bristol, England. "To save money, always be sure to choose accommodation where you can self cater, such as a hostel or an apartment if you are traveling in a group, and ideally where a good breakfast is included in the room price.

Hole in the Donut Cultural Travels – "Stay off of planes whenever possible and take buses and trains instead," writes Barbara Weibel, who is from Chicago but claims to be a "citizen of the world" more than anything else. "In some parts of the world the trains are extremely inexpensive, and in Latin America, the bus system is awesome. In most places in the world, I don't hesitate to eat the street food. I look for places where a lot of locals are being served. In many countries, I can eat for less than $10 per day – sometimes less – in Malaysia (where I am at the moment) I could literally eat for less than $5 per day, since my homestay provides a good breakfast."

117. To China…And Beyond! – "My top money-saving tip is to eat street food wherever you are — it's not only yummy, but you can also get a meal for a dollar, or even less," advises Jessica Marsden, who is from California but is now studying at Tsinghua University in Beijing.

"Apart from lodging, eating out can be the most expensive part of traveling, [so] when possible, book accommodations with kitchens…[and] look into the best rates for public transportation before arriving and walk as much as possible."

119. Hike Bike Travel – "Try and get a house sitting gig through housecarers.com," writes Leigh McAdam, who grew up in Ottawa, Canada but is currently living in Vancouver. "Take 10% off everything you make before it gets frittered away and put it in a specially designated travel account…Babysit even if you think you've outgrown it.

"Wherever you go, watch what the locals are eating, and try cooking that for dinner. As an American, I'm used to thinking that a PB&J sandwich is a cheap meal. But in some places, that's one of the most expensive things you could make! Remember that local culinary traditions are going to run cheaper 100% of the time. If you're hosteling, free breakfast goes a long way. International student ID cards are not expensive and can get you fantastic discounts everywhere- from museums to trains."

"…Don't pay with a credit card- pay in cash. If you see the money that is actually going away you'll cut back your expenses. Swiping a CC is not visual and means nothing to your pocket.
