How to Choose your Destination

Buying your Flight and Travel Insurance

Picking the Perfect Accommodation

And Now, What to Pack?

Pick an Accommodation

Before we jump on booking an accomodation, bear in mind something:

Location matters

Before you totally fall for a cheap dealp online, make sure to check the location, sometimes the hotel room is way cheaper than it was supposed to be and you think you are such a lucky bunny that you simply book the room straight the way and buy a lottery ticket just to make sure. WRONG.

Guys, check the location of the hotel first, google map it and check if it is not an “adventure” to go from the airport or train station to your hotel. Some hotels are cheap, but what you gonna pay to move around from there will just hit your wallet badly.

And exemple was the first time I went to London, in order to save a little I decided to stay in, Croydon. Turned out my hotel was 1:45hours away from central London and I had to spend £10 everyday to come and go. Making the math, the price of hotel plus transport for me and my mom, we could have stayed in central London for basically the same price.

Common Accommodations:

Hotel

Everybody knows what a hotel is anyways, BUT, if you are looking for some privacy, or are travelling with family and you really don’t want to get annoyed, this is the best option. Of course it is more expensive than a hostel, but you can find pretty cheap ones as well, depending on where you are going.

Hostel

This will be probably the best option if you are a solo traveller and or if you are trying to save money. Hostels are like Hotels, but more carefree, here you can both take a private room (that are normally the price of hotels) or a shared room, in this case you can get a 4, 8 or even 12 bed beds. The good part of it is that it makes the night way cheaper than a normal hotel. The bad thing is that, well, you need to share your room with people you don’t know. But thats the thing, you can make lots of friends!
