Grocery shopping saves the day

A wise person once said that the best way to experience a country was through your tummy. We agree, but eating out every meal will slim down your wallet considerably. With the popularity of home renting services like AirBnB, preparing easy meals whilst on holiday has become much easier. A trip to the supermarket to pick up ingredients for snacks or sandwiches is the way to keep both your tummy, and your wallet satisfied. Most staples like fruit, cereal and sandwich ingredients keep and travel well. Eating before you head out for the day and packing snacks will keep hunger pangs at bay!

Skip the souvenirs

A plastic Eiffel Tower with blinking blue LED lights made in China. Is that really a good memento of your trip to the most romantic city in the world? A souvenir or memento doesn’t have to be expensive, and the sheer variety when you’re in a foreign city is practically endless. If you’re a foodie, a visit to the supermarket gives you the chance to pick local fare, while night markets let you pick up inexpensive local goods too. Alternatively, go natural and collect samples of rocks or soil packed into small vials, or flowers pressed in a book whilst on the road. For free! Be sure to check local laws first though!
