World Budget Travel Guides




Hello and welcome to EarthDocumentary World Budget Travel Guide. I am Tim the Traveler. This is a website that I created for my own benefit!

As a travel enthusiast on a limited income, I love to travel but need to do it on a limited budget. For that reason, I always look for opportunities where I can save. I do love to splurge once in a while, like dining in a fine restaurant, or staying in a good hotel. To be able to afford that, I have to find ways to stretch my dollar.

This website pools together the research I have done over the years. It covers all the countries I have visited as well as those I am planning to go. Whenever I find travel information that is useful to me, I put it here, so that I can find it easily afterwards, and I can share it with you.

Useful Tips for Budget Travelers

Here are some useful tips to help you explore the world on a budget:
