No matter what your personal style is, there's
a few basic things you've got to do on the road: eat, sleep, move, have fun, talk
to people, and make friends. With any of these, there's a huge range of ways you could go, and a correspondingly huge range of amounts of money you could spend. How cheap you want to go depends on you, how soft you think you are. If you can handle sleeping on straw mats eating nothing but rice and beans for days you could travel a long, long time on very little money. But after three days on the straw mat, you may miss that Simmons Beauty Rest back home. Our recommendation is this: aim as low as you think you can handle, but have enough of a financial safety-net to move up a notch in comfort. You don't want to torture yourself, after all, so if you find yourself a little softer than you realized, just accept it and take care of what needs This section covers what you need to know to take care of the basics when you're travelling. The pages listed on the left are pretty self-explanatory, so have a look.
