WAYS OF TRAVELLING FOR FREE

Don’t let your empty wallet stop you from taking the trip of a lifetime. Just remember: with the right attitude, the best things in life — even travelling — can come pretty cheap.

1______________

Budget airlines are virtually a religion in Europe, where few people pay full price for airline tickets. In fact, some airlines, especially those in the United Kingdom, offer international fares for little more than the taxes. You’ll be blown away by some of the sales on offer, check out some websites that offer happy hour rates for one hour a day. What advocates say: A $30 ticket to get across Europe? It makes the train seem expensive. What Granny would say: Sounds good. Do they offer a discount for seniors?

2______________

Once you’ve arrived at your destination, consider approaching a manager and negotiating a deal to exchange some work for your room — if they’re short of staff, you can barter your labour for a free place to stay. An alternative is to apply for a job before you even leave home, especially if you’ve had experience in the hospitality industry. A number of websites list such jobs. Other sites offer listings on a country-by-country basis. Some places may be apprehensive about hiring someone from abroad; depending on the place, some may require you to hold a working visa before your arrival.

What advocates say: As long as no money is exchanged, trading your labour for room and board is a good way to get around the visa issue of working in other countries. What Granny would say: It’s like slave labour! You should report them if they make you work too hard.

Most travel companies will offer a discount — or a free travel — to people who organize a tour for several people. They commonly refer to them as «group leaders». No, this does not mean that you are responsible for guiding your group of friends around Rome, but rather that you organize who will be going, where they will be going, and when. This one is a nobrainer for teachers and professors (ever wondered why your teacher in high school was happy to accompany 20 teenagers on a trip to Paris?) But it can work for other people too. Check out adventuresincorporated.com or adventures-abroad.com for examples, or enquire with any organization of interest to you.

Advocates would say: Great idea! Not only will you get to travel for free, but you can go with your friends. What Granny would say: You can start by organizing my trip to Florida this winter.

If you are the sort of person who would welcome the challenge of climbing to Everest Base Camp to raise money for a charity, this one could be for you. One of the newest trends in travel has seen companies springing up that will help you organize the challenge of your choice — or join an existing expedition — all in the name of charity. You do the climb (or other adventure), and raise the sponsors, they take care of the rest.

Advocates say: Where’s my ice axe? What Granny would say: Why go so far when you can do charity work at the nursing home across the street?

OK, this may sound like a long shot, but if you’re short on cash and long on time you’ll be absolutely amazed at how many travel competitions are there for the winning. Travel writing or photography may win you cash or a trip. Airlines, cruise lines, resorts, tourism boards and adventure travel companies all offer up prize trips every so often. If you’re not picky about where you go, a little time and energy invested might get you out of here sooner than you think.

Advocates say: I won something once.

What Granny would say: Want to take me to bingo on Tuesday?

A Organize a Group Tour

B Get a Travel Scholarship

C Take a Hard-core Challenge

D Do Some Charity

E Fly Smart

F Trade Labour at a Hostel
