Entry #4 Just Do It

Traveling most of us want to do it. so what's stopping you? To a lot of us, money is our biggest concern or at least in my case it is. So I've been doing a little research and found some great ways to travel with little to no money... If you're a risk taker that is.

The first option is to volunteer in return for a place to stay. This cool website http://www.wwoof.net/ shows  many locations that you might be interested in going to, along with a job description. It's basically like looking for a job in a place you would want to explore. Except you get paid with food and a place to stay in.

Another option similar to this, is House-siting. Yes, kind of like pet-setting  only that you get to stay in a house for free while it's owners are away. Sometimes they may leave for weeks or even months! This is a win, win for both parties because it gives you a place to stay and helps the house owners relax knowing someone is looking after their casa (house).

This is some of the website you can look into if you're interested in house- setting.

Lastly My personal favorite is would be crashing on someone's couch . There are websites like https://www.couchsurfing.com/ and http://www.globalfreeloaders.com/  that allow you to look up a place to stay with friendly people for free. A house owner kindly opens their home for travelers who don't have a place to go. Sounds pretty sketchy, I know but the website requires a background check for both parties and is said to be pretty safe. I would still recommend traveling with a friend though, you can never be too safe.

I came across a video of a man who talked about his experience and how he was able to travel around the world by doing couch surfing and relying on the kindness of people.
