No problem, surf the internet—or have someone do it for you if you are not too familiar with it—and there you’ll find awesome travel deals and packages for spring offered by travel agencies. Do some serious shopping first before picking the best because there are loads and loads out there to choose from!
·    Ditch your travel guide books and get to know the locals more. This way you’ll get first-hand info where the cheap-but-best finds in their area. For safety reasons though, do your little research before you go just to familiarize yourself of their neighborhood or what areas you must to avoid.
·    Bring your own snacks and drinks especially if you’re travelling by road. These things tend to be crazy expensive arriving at your destination and I really don’t know why..
·    Hunt down local grocery stores and supermarkets upon arrival. This would be your greatest source of nourishment for days to come. When you do, stock up on your necessities such as bottled water, chips, convenience food and whatnot.
·    Inspect the place you’re occupying. As much as possible, go for the ones with kitchens—at the very least, an electric kettle where you can boil your own water and fridge to keep your stock fresh.
·    If your allowance is really killing you, limit yourself to one-dine-out meal per day. It could be lunch or dinner, depending on your preferences. Other meals you enjoy inside your room.
·    Visit family and friends. Boy they’d be glad to see you! Which in your end means, free board and lodging for a couple of days. Isn’t that sweet?
·    Consider exchange rates. If you are traveling outside of your country, make sure you are familiar with their exchange rates, or at least how much things cost converted to your currency. This way you can plan your budget ahead.
·    Choose destinations that are not too popular with tourists during spring breaks. The world is made of vast lands, I’m sure there are many hidden treasures out there, you just have to find them.
·    Bring some friends. This way you can share travel expenses with them and at the same time, have lots of fun during the trip.
