Flying and Cheap Places to Stay...

All things you need to know about flying affordably and staying in different places abroad... coming from a college student who studied abroad!!

FLYING

Apps:

• Skyscanner

• Expedia

• Student Universe

These are all apps that will help you find the cheapest flights. I used these religiously and all were super helpful.

Airlines I used:

• Ryanair

• British airways

• Aer Lingus

• Air Canada

• American

• Easyjet (used the most)

• Lufthansa

• Norwegian airlines

• United

• Frontier

With these airlines you have to be careful with bags. Sometimes they are really strict and are often cheap if you only take a backpack.

CHEAP PLACES TO STAY

Apps:

• Hostel world

• Airbnb

• Booking.com

• Expedia

Staying in a hostel is often the cheapest, most affordable, and safe when traveling (especially alone).

I also liked staying in airbnb's because I could stay somewhere unique, more privacy, and cheap.

Booking.com was ok I didn't use it a ton and wouldn't really recommend it.

Expedia is great too but tends to show more expensive places.

If you go with a group I recommend airbnb because it is so much fun and affordable if split.

Top Airbnb Places I Stayed:

• Nazaré, Portugal - "The houses of the Ilhéu" - hosted by Beatriz

• Lofoten Islands, Norway - "Lofoten Fjord Apartment in Kvalvika Beach and Ryten -hosted by Regine

• Flakstad, Norway - "The dome" - hosted by Joakim

• Tjeldsund, Norway - "Tjeldøya Castle" - hosted by Ragnar

• Split, Croatia - "Heart of Split Heritage Apartment" - hosted by Vanda

• Diemtigen, Switzerland - "Studio Simmentalblick" - hosted by Manuela and Marcel

Remember, if you don't feel safe or feel uncomfortable, reach out to airbnb and do NOT stay!! Your safety is way more important than feeling bad about canceling your reservation.

Happy Traveling!
