Actually if you are a frequent traveler, you will realize how overpriced the Philippines is. The only Asian countries more expensive than the Philippines are probably Singapore and Korea. Hotels and food in Japan are probably just at par with the prices here.

If you're a solo traveler, going abroad can be as cheap as a trip to Palawan or Boracay. You can adjust your accommodation, shopping and food according to your liking. Remember that the only real fixed expenses are the airfare, the hotel and the transportation. For example I only spent 100K on my Hong Kong trip and that already includes a lot of visits to massage parlors.

But if you're with your family, ibang usapan na. Everything is X4 and hindi maiiwasan ang shopping which I think makes travel expensive.

Kahit may pera ka, yung oras madalas ang mahirap. Pag busy kasi sa work tapos nag abroad ka for a week, hindi ka rin masyado makapag relax abroad. Hindi maiwasan na may nagmmessage.

This year, not so good ang schedule. Konti lang long weekends.

Been solo travelling lately pero locally muna.  Moving to international na if I am comfortable na ako lang mag isa. Mostly DIY lang enjoy din ang adventures! 🙂

Can't say I'm passionate about traveling, but I've been to some nice places. I like how travel broadens my perspective, and I enjoy learning from people with different backgrounds.

I'll be flying to Edinburgh soon and spending a month there, which I'm really looking forward to since it's my first time. I might take a side trip to London and Dublin, if I'm not too lazy.

I guess I’m lucky to have travelled to most of our tourist spots nung medyo affordable pa. At that time, airfare was cheaper and accommodations were also reasonable.

For me, sumikat kasi sa SocMed and YT through vlogs yung mga spots to visit which drove people there. It should’ve drove the cost down but for some reason it did not which is weird. Baka yung influx ng foreigners siguro? IDK.

I still have a few more in my list and I tried planning a trip nga kaso totoo ngang mas mura na to go abroad kasi halos same ang cost. Tapos sa ibang bansa makakaexperience ka pa ng kakaibang culture. Hirap tuloy piliin local spots.

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow mindedness.” Mark Twain

Found truth in this… in how traveling opens up the mind through exposure to diverse cultures and perspectives.

Invest in good luggage like Rimowa. For long haul flights, airport look could make or break your comfort. Make sure you wear comfortable loose clothing when you know you have a long stopover or if your flight in general is +4 hours. Bring a good book, download podcast or movies to keep you entertained. Don’t forget chargers and power bank should be in arms reach, always charge your phone or power bank when you can in airports.

Magastos pero worth it. Invest on travels more than material things - for they might might be stolen from you but travel memories last a lifetime. 

I hope as people travel more - they should also be cautious and responsible. Minimize noise and never litter. Respect other culture.

Eco-traveling is the only way to go! Act and look smart at all times when traveling...talk and mingle with other people along the way,be witty and nice.In my experience travel is a target rich environment for whatever you desire! Some came in expensive,some reasonable but most of the time almost cost you nothing!
