Throw in a sunset, an enchanting location and someone else to do the washing up and you would be right to feel that you are indeed a lucky so and so. Even better is that this can all come guilt free: there will be more than enough moments where you are in the thick of the action, taking charge and doing all the hard stuff while everyone else sleeps or relaxes. For this is the life of an adventure tour leader. Adventure tour or overland companies, large and small, rumble around countries and across continents carrying a cargo of thrill seeking passengers. Depending on the set up each tour will consist of a driver and a tour leader. Tour Leader / Guide Tour companies generally prefer their tour leaders to be at least 23 years of age, sometimes older. Additional qualities sought include a second language, usually French or Spanish, leadership, communication and organisational skills.

Wise Bread Picks For the last five years, I've been traveling the world full-time, and for less money than I've ever spent (and I'd wager less money than most people would spend) to live in one place. My worldly possessions fit into one bag (just larger than carry-on size) and a backpack containing my laptop and computer gear. This small entourage (weighing less than 45 pounds in total) comes with me as I wander around the world, sometimes quickly, but mostly slowly. In 2011 alone, I traversed 13 countries and over 45,360 miles. What if I told you it wasn't? Believe it. How to Keep Your Travel Costs Low Of course, I could travel for way more than $17,000/year. Here are a few of my secrets. Don't Pay for Accommodations In the entire year of 2011, I paid $173 for accommodation. Work-Trade/Volunteer There are lots of creative opportunities to work in trade for your accommodation (and sometimes food) and enjoy a more immersive travel experience.

How to travel the world for free (seriously) You can travel the world for less money than you spend each month to fill up your gas tank. WORLD TRAVEL is cheap and easy. In fact, with a little practice and effort, you can travel for free. The idea that travel is expensive and difficult is bullshit peddled by tour companies, hotel chains, and corporate media. The tourism industry doesn’t want me to reveal the simple secrets of free travel, but I’m going to share them with you anyway. 1. Travel frees you from the grind of daily routine. The joy of new experience is the most wonderful thing about world travel — and new experiences are free. The simple joy of being in a new place is just a matter of…wait for it…going someplace new. 2. The modern American economy is built on the false premise that people need to buy new goods and services all the time.
