From cheap flights to saving on food, to finding the most wallet-friendly places to go, here’s how to travel Europe on a budget.

“Its 2020 - everyone wants to travel more…” ugh, I just wanted to hug you when you said that. Watching in 2022.😅😄
hahahah we had no idea what was coming!
Thanks for the video! I also found some discount for uk rail tickets. It's always good to look out for deals that can make travel more affordable🎉
same, I have also found 5% discount on trainpal.
Some pretty good advice here. I would probably be more savvy when it came to carrying multiple seasons of clothes though. Keep travelling 🤙
awesome vid u made me smile subbed
Thanks for the tips :)
Listen!!. Exploring new countries is such a rewarding experience! For first-time travelers, I'd recommend considering destinations that offer a mix of cultural richness and natural beauty. Personally, I've been fortunate to travel to over 10 countries thanks to careful budgeting and smart investments.I wasnt financial free until my 30’s and I’m still in my 30’s, bought my second house already, earn on a monthly through passive income and got 2 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future.
I invest across the top markets but not by myself though. i follow the guidelines of Regina Louise Collaro . you might have heard of her.. I can correctly say she's worth her salt as an investment adviser as her diversification skills are top notch, I say this because i see that in her results as my portfolio grows by averages of 5 to 1O% on a monthly basis, unlike i can say for my other inve stm ents which has just been trudging along. my portfolio just mirrors what she place and not just on some particular industries of my choosing. My Dad was able to retire early and gain financial freedom through her help
Regina Louise Collaro is based in the United States and can work with anybody wherever they stay.. If you would like more information on reaching her, you can conduct a search online.
personally, I'm blessed and realizing I'm not the only one working with Regina Louise Collaro. I will consider myself lucky. I've been able to feed and make a living through her advice and great work. For such a person as Regina, I owe her gratitude, support and endless prayers as it is not easy to gain access to such a competent and reliable adviser. Who isn't just wise but has all it takes to handle an investment and is good at what she does.
Thanks vicahmed.I have had the intentions of starting investing. But I always thought it was late and I think I need to stop procrastinating. I will definitely 🔍 Regina Louise Collaro and see what she can advise .Thanks a lot ,this was of so much help to me.
thanks for sharing. Another tip is to see if there is a recent discount on the railway before traveling.
Thank you
Can you make a video about life back at home and how you plan to leave everything behind during long trips?
Great advice.
great video!
thanks for giving tips like an older sister. I am planning to go as solo traveler, this really helps!
Thanks so much this is a great video
Jemima is really sweet. Thanks for the information
Nice to info
Thanks for all of the tips! I'm planning my first backpacking trip over to Europe and this was really helpful!
rock on! i am planning the same for the following month!
This was an awesome video! Ironically when you published it, I was in Australia. Headed back there in February 2023. Headed to Slovakia in April/May with shorter trips to Mexico and Ireland sometime before summer in the northern hemisphere. There’s nothing like having two summers a year. My mom’s grandparents came from what is now Slovakia and her other grandparents were German but grew up in in what is now Hungary. Can’t wait to check it out.
I loved your rambling! Travel videos are currently the closest I'm getting to travelling! Take care & stay safe x
Could you do a video all about eating while traveling?
I'm from the UK. London is very expensive all year round haha
So what do people do with their luggage or bags throughout the day? Seems to me the best thing to do would be to take one backpack with all your stuff, but you would have to carry it with you everywhere you go.
ALBANIA 100% Recommended !
I wont compromise on my accommodation i stay in apartments cost is around €70 a night thats about my limit. I stayed in a hostel once and ill never do it again. I try and have a cheap day every other day. Restaurant for lunch and a sandwich or something cheap for dinner. I also try walk as much as possible. I also don't really bother with museums.
"this is hard for some people but pack light if you can" FINALLY SOME REPRESENTATION I'M SOME PEOPLE
AMAAAAAAAAAAAZING!!! This video is everything i was wondering and needed hahaha… I am going to Europe to travel for a year and I’m wondering how the hell I’m gonna do that. Thank u so much !!!! This was so bad ass! I feel like we’re best friends now … u get me! Hahaha … But seriously though, THANK YOU! This was great.
Another tip that will save you hours, is where you book your hotel. Book close to most of the attractions you want to see it saves hours in travel time also getting close to a subway/. Metro station can save you time & money.
Thank you for sharing. Seeing if there are any discounts on railway tickets is also a way to save money
I find it is very handy to find the cheapest places to get stuff in a country. Like when I travel, I will check to see if there is a Poundland equivalent where I go, where are the cheapest supermarkets, and try to pick accommodation close to those if I can.
Wow you are brilliant wish I had a chnace to travel with you definitely it would of being fun and very good experience. Well if I know your next move I d love to join you look forward to hear from you take care 😊
How can I get In touch what's your Instagram page
Manifique Wow C'est Cool ♥️♥️😊
Hey hey! Does this budget per month include hostels and travel? Or just spending?
Hi i was wondering if you could help. I am planning to visit these 12 countries if you could suggest me a route since you have been all over Europe. Whats the best way what the best route thank you
Austria
Belgium
France
Germany
Greece
Iceland
Ireland
Italy
Portugal
Switzerland
Turkey
Uk
Im willing to give you a free week in our Airbnb with a tour around Madeira islands in return for a video about the island and apartment
I’m going in two weeks. I’m gonna try your tricks but 40 AUD a day is like 20 euro ….
wow this is such a great video! Did you find you got exhausted or tired after 9 months, or ever miss home? I'd love to travel long term but I'm worried about missing the comforts of home
I loved your tips. A question: how to find cheap restaurants in Europe? Have you some advices about ways to taste local food without pay a lot?
I did a lot of research! Reading blogs and watching videos from other travelers. I always look up places on Google Maps, read all the reviews, check their '$' rating, and try to figure it out from there!
@@JourneyWithJemima thank you sis, your channel is amazing
Good value, not cheap
How were you able to stay in Europe for so long? I'm looking at a Working Holiday visa but I don't know if it's the right move
It must be noted the app you suggest is not available for android, just ios apple 😥
Which city in europe you recommended visit for practice english??
how did u stay in europe for that long? did u just stay in non schengen countries?
How do u do it this cheeply, I summed up my dream trip it is 17 days with the transportation time and the total was something like 1250 euro, considering food activities and so on.
Whats the money apps name??
How did you bring money from Aus ?
HELLOOOO QUEEEEEN I AM HERE
❤❤❤
How do you spend £935 a month?
where from u r?? love you🤟
Do you purchase one way airline tickets or return airline ticket when you travel?
one way! :) i like the flexibility
In the process of planning a 3 month trip to europe so this was really helpful..especially the SIM card you got! I was gonna get an eSIM but your way sounds better haha 🤣 also, how did you get the visa to stay in europe for 9 months?!?!
would you recommend using an app or website for cheap flight searching?
I usually use Skyscanner!
We need so many more videos to be like this! Not everyone has limitless resources to travel but EVERYONE can enjoy travel thank you!!
1800 aus or usd
Hey there! Are there like banks or somewhere you could rent lockers to store luggage safely if you'll be away from a hostel for a few days?
Also, I've heard about true backpacking where folks pitch tents. This is actually rather appealing to me on some occasions. That being said, are there like spas I guess for a real good shower and personal care experience between this type of sleeping arrangements while touring Europe?
Most big cities have storage places for bags! Or there are usually lockers at the bus/train station. And hmm I'm not sure about the spas, I know there are some good ones in Budapest! Most cities would have probably a Turkish bath type situation, or you could always get a day pass to a gym to use their showers
@@JourneyWithJemima Oh the gyms. Good idea! Thanks for the reply. We probably will do the hostel situation but there are a few more scenic towns the thought of camping is really appealing.
just wondering how you managed around the 90/180 day schengen rules as an Aussie citizen? nobody has explained schengen + bilateral visa waivers very convincingly. Or did you get a long term holiday visa?
I purposely spent a lot of time outside the Schengen zone - a lot of central/Eastern europe aren't in the zone so don't count toward the 90 days
Sometimes über do their first ride free!
Great video! Can you please share a rough itinerary in Eastern Europe for 6 months?
For booking return flights, do you do that before you go on your trip or during the end of your trip when you know you are ready to go home from your months long journey? How do you know your exact date you will be going home if you buy the return ticket before?
Thank you for you videos btw
My europe trip i didn't book a flight home because I didn't have a plan. The trip I'm on now, I just booked return flights Sydney to LA (it was cheaper) and I am making my plans fit around the return date. It just depends on how long I want to be away, and what my plans are!
how did you find travelling Albania? it looks beautiful but as a solo female traveller I don't think I would feel safe
I had a few reservations but honestly it was probably the country in Europe where I felt safest. There are so many sterotypes/misconceptions about Albania but it's one of the friendliest countries I went to. Everyone wants to help you and wants to show you how lovely their country is. It's one of the best places I've been on my own!!
@@JourneyWithJemima thanks so much! That's great to hear :) I need more places in the non Schengen region to go so I can stay in Europe longer haha
@@issytucker6131 that's exactly what I did! Bosnia, North Macedonia, Kosovo and Albania are all stunners!
@@JourneyWithJemima thanks so much! Did you get to Cyprus?
40 dollars a day is just a normal average for a traveler. Not budget, it feels like. Not counting the transportation. And Considering there are very cheap hostels that charge 10 dollars a night.
Bosnia?:)
Wow! 9 months???? Did you not have a job? Seriously, no shade at all... or did you work remotely? I wish i can travel for at least 3 months. I want to take a whole summer vacation with my kids but i can't because of work.
haha yeah i work remotely :) freelance writing
Sounds too good 🤔
the panini said 'bitch you thought!!! you THOUGHT!!!'
2020 flashbacks 😫😫
Hi Jemima, I love this video, very helpful tips! I'm planning a very BUDGET backpacking trip after I graduate high school and I have been saving like crazy so hopefully, assuming the COVID-19 situation gets better, it'll happen. I was wondering if you'd be willing to share that google doc you made about budgeting and the full itinerary of the countries you visited/route you took? I'm just searching around for inspiration in order to plan my trip! :)
I’m just curious Thalia, were you able to make that trip?
Hey, please tell me about your trip
This must have been really early 2020😂😂😂
haha yeah i filmed this in january oops
Lek Albanian lek❤
If I had billions in my account I'd be buying an ancient castle, a huge one, not just visiting it.. Forget about skipping the housewarming party 🥂
This video was very helpful! One thing you forgot to mention, maybe because you’re in Australia so it may not apply, is having charger adapters. I’m from the US but have visited Europe and spent three and a half weeks there. I’m so glad I did my research and bought an adapter for cheap on Amazon.
I’m planning on going back to Europe and I want to spend three months. I’m scared but excited. Also, how long did it take you to plan and save up for a nine month trip?
Thanks! Oh three months will be awesome! I didn't save specifically for the trip but I got made redundant and was like oh well now's a good time to use up my savings haha! And I definitely planned as I went - it's good to be flexible because you'll meet so many people and hear so many good recommendations :)
Hotel 10-15$ a day... food 10-15$ a day... transport...10-15$ a day...
traveling on a budget if you're rich thanks
Omg. Don't travel to the US then. We are super expensive
This video really didn't age well lol
Can you slow down and announceate your words better.
