i'm always asked how i manage to travel so much even though i'm a university student, and it's actually pretty simple! using these tips, i've been able to travel the world alongside my degree, from athens and milan to singapore and china! i'd recommend following my instagram to keep up with where i'm travelling to and when :)

Eastern Europe is so cheap and there's so much to see, I'd definitely recommend traveling around there! I spent 3 weeks traveling from Macedonia to Croatia through Albania, Montenegro, and Bosnia and it only cost me a couple hundred euros! Also! Cooking at hostels is a huge money saver and it also helps you feel less gross from eating out every day lol

A good degree shows a high level of critical thinking, independent study and organisation, and intellectual rigour; meaning after 3 years I could go into fields such as PR and marketing, media, finance, law, etc. It also leaves me open to do a master's degree in pretty much any subject, or pursue academia if that's what I wanted 🙂

I think every situation is slightly different but for me, I think Jack's idea about saving a little each week has proved best. Put aside part of your maintenance loan before you actually decide on a weekly budget (then you'll actually save a bit at the beginning of term)if you can, be efficient with food shopping and find somewhere like Aldi and lidl to shop if possible, and just focus on changing little things that won't ruin your enjoyment of University but will just add a little bit to your funds each week! If you still think it'll be too expensive maybe look at University funding for travel, at most universities I researched there were great options for travel grants or just general bursaries open for different activities like travel, again each uni is different but definitely have a look! You could try and go away somewhere beforehand with someone you trust and I'm sure it would make you more confident about it all - and do plenty online research! Anyways good luck 🙂

Everyone (unless you're rich enough to pay for living costs yourself which isn't many people) in the UK who goes to University gets a maintenance loan from the government to pay for their living costs. It's based on household income so if you have more money you get less (put theoretically your parents can therefore help support you) and if you have less money, you get more. It means everyone can afford to go to university. You use this to pay for rent, food, societies, but if you save on any of those then you can use the money for other things instead. I'm trying to save to go abroad this summer, so I put some aside at the beginning of term, shop at Aldi, don't drink, have a cheap room etc 🙂

Please people, consider the need of your trips. It's really not helping our environment if we just selfishly hop on the cheapest flights ever for distances that can also be travelled by train or trips that can be avoided as a whole. Of course I do see the advantage of seeing the world, and connecting to different countries is important! But going to a city by plane, being only a tourist who doesn't connect to locals, stays only a weekend and leaves trash is kind of unnecessary. And yes I do know that there's such thing as carbon offsetting, but so little people actually do it and also it's not cleansing the atmosphere from greenhouse gases, they can't just be taken back. So pleeeease, the only way to protect our environment is to use your common sense and do the best you can in avoiding unnecessary pollution, think of it as a whole ♡
