Many of us dream of leaving our office work, away from everyday stress and go to travel the world from head to toe.\u00a0However, those dreams remain only in dreams because we believe that large sums of money are needed that would take a lifetime to achieve.<\/p>\n

It is true that money is necessary to move around the world, because modern society works with it;\u00a0However, there will always be alternatives so that it does not become limiting.\u00a0If you still think you will never get enough money to travel to South America, Greenland, India<\/a>, Europe or Africa.<\/p>\n

Here in this article we help you change your mind with\u00a0effective savings steps\u00a0that you can implement today.<\/strong><\/p>\n

  1. Make a budget and keep track of your expenses<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The first things you have to do on a personal budget and record all the expenses you have per month so you can see what the money is going for.\u00a0Surely you think it’s complicated, delayed or useless, because it’s impossible to write down all those ant expenses: the sweets, the snacks, the trips to the cinema, the money you spent last night at a party, the parking tickets, the cigarettes, etc…<\/p>\n

    Today it is easy to keep track of our money without making tables in Excel or pointing notes.\u00a0There are already\u00a0applications or personal finance platforms<\/strong>\u00a0with which you can register and visualize all your income and all your expenses from one place, automatically and simply, and with the same security of your bank.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Find savings opportunities<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Once you have a personal budget and track your expenses it will be easier for you to start identifying those useless expenses that are depleting your economy and the possibility of fulfilling your trips.\u00a0For useless expenses we refer to those that do not become essential in your life and with which you could survive without having them: soft drinks, cigars, new shoes, beers, etc.\u00a0Expenses that may even be damaging your health and it is better to start cutting.<\/p>\n

      How much should you cut your expenses?\u00a0That depends entirely on you.\u00a0You may hear many travel savings formulas such as “save 10% or 20% of your salary”, “put ten pesos each day in the piglet”;\u00a0However, the only one who knows your income and expenses is really you and, if you really want to go on a trip and your goal is firm, you could even save up to 50% of your salary or more, depending on the term you set.\u00a0Of course, do not forget that other savings funds are also important, such as emergencies and old age.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Have a simple lifestyle<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        How to survive if you plan to cut your expenses?\u00a0If you have reached this point and you have realized that you are spending more on food out, dating with your partner or your friends, fashion, parties, etc., and you want to do something about it, you should know that you can live on simplest way without sacrificing lifestyle.<\/p>\n
