How do I travel while in college?
My post high school plans include college and traveling the world, but I don't want to put my education on hold while pursuing something I've dreamed of doing. Being able to travel while still in college and not putting either on hold is something I've been wanting to do but wasn't sure how easy it would be. Here are some tips and pro's that I found that might help:
-Save money to travel: make this one of your priorities and start to earn, save, and don't spend!
-Study abroad: being able to experience a new culture for a longer period of time
-Short term mission trips: going with a group with similar beliefs and being able to help out
-Volunteer abroad: there are many opportunities to go volunteer around the world
-Find a job/internship abroad: working in different places and gaining experience
-Club trips: joining clubs and campus groups that do some traveling
-Self organized trips: traveling by yourself or with a friend can make for a fun and exciting adventure.

love how you researched this topic, because I think some of us might become conflicted with it later on. I also like how your tips involve things that will give a great college experience as well, rather than being all about earning money to go alone :)
ReplyDeleteThese are great tips on how to travel while studying. Shows how there's more than one way to it :)
ReplyDeleteI feel like it would be really difficult to travel in college, especially if you don’t have a lot of money. This advice seems helpful though because if you travel with a school club it will be cheaper. I personally don’t like to travel because it feels like such a burden but maybe I can try it out while in college
ReplyDeleteI would love to travel while in college but it seems very difficult. The tips you have given are actually practical and very helpful.
ReplyDeleteTraveling while being a student is something that I have been doing for a while now and it is difficult but not impossible. You just have to work hard and be able to keep up with school work. Hopefully you do keep traveling because it's an amazing experience.
ReplyDeleteI really want to travel while I am in college too, but it does seem disheartening when you start to add up all the costs and time away from home. Despite these drawbacks the tips you wrote are super helpful, and I would definitely consider studying abroad or maybe doing an internship while in college.
