You don't need much money to grab a backpack and go someplace, or do volunteer work abroad. You could even get paid for some of it.

- slothtrop 6y agoThat comes from a position of privilege. Round trip plane tickets across the ocean or hemispheres, and factoring cost of food lodging and travel while there, is plainly expensive. Travel by land has less of an upfront cost, but depending on how far you want go can take ample time. That's time spent not earning, burning through vacation days just to get somewhere, which from where I am, can scarcely be described as traveling the world. Working abroad for say TESL (teaching english in the second language) is a contract, commonly up to a year, though shorter options exist. That's a complete displacement, it may be suitable for a young graduate but isn't short-term travel.
