Tips for a good trip outside Brazil

Do not let last minute
Leave buying anything until the last minute, as everything will be more expensive. When you are confident about traveling outside of Brazil, search for tickets to your chosen destination every day.
Aviation companies always run promotions for tickets to
all places in the world. Therefore, to save money on your ticket, be careful and visit this type of website frequently.
It is best to buy the ticket 6 months in advance, especially for those who want to pay in installments via credit card.
Documents up to date
Always stay alert and prepared when updating documents. Try to anticipate and avoid removing or updating documents at the last minute. This helps a lot if, for example, a promotion appears at a travel agency or airline.
Planning
Good planning is essential to make the most of your trip abroad. He must start with the travel fund, which is a type of savings for depositing a certain amount to be invested in traveling abroad. You can do it alone or with someone who will travel with you.
The good thing is that to start with the fund you don't need to have already determined where or when it will go. The money deposited may not be needed to pay monthly bills. A maximum value of around 20% of monthly income is recommended.
With a monthly saving of money for a year, it is now possible to have a good trip. Define how much you can and intend to spend on the entire trip, stipulating the amount you will spend daily on accommodation, tours and food. This way, you will evaluate what you can or cannot do on a daily basis within the budget.
The trip itself also needs to be planned. Some people like
travel with all tours determined and purchased, accommodation defined, etc. Those who like to have everything well planned can do well, but this can lead to missing out on good things during the trip. The fact is that it is not possible to know what you will find in the country.
When planning, think about what you like and the type of experience you are looking for. If
You feel the need to have everything extremely organized, your planning may include knowing details of the places you are going to visit, looking for other people's opinions, defining tours, cities and accommodations.
A person who does not have a constant need for organization can do less planning. In this case, planning may include a study of the place you are going to travel to, look at the options you have and create an itinerary for your trip. But it does not need to be followed completely to the letter, without making a very advance reservation at a hotel, without purchasing a tour or ticket far away from the start date of the trip. The important thing is to research the subject and analyze the possibilities.
Look for flexibility
The more flexible you can be with your travel plans, the more you will be able to save before and during your trip.
If possible, communicate only via the internet
The amounts charged by operators for international roaming services, that is, for using your cell phone outside Brazil, are astronomical. Therefore, when leaving the country, leave your cell phone data turned off.
To keep in touch with Brazil, the ideal is to use the Wi-Fi in the places you go to or even buy a local SIM card for your cell phone. With the local chip, you will pay very small fees, with the possibility of good call quality.
Use the internet to get as much information as you can about the place to make your trip better by making the right choices. Try to get information from people you know who have already been to the same destination and search for information on websites and blogs related to the subject. Many things you will find will be aimed at tourists.
For a good experience, you can search for people who belong to
region to chat or even to stay in a family home or join Couchsurfing or Airbnb.
Couchsurfing allows you to find a community of people who
provides a free place to stay in the house. A big bonus is that these people can help with information and recommending the best places in the city.
Airbnb is the possibility that you can rent a room in a residence.
To do this, you must pay a certain amount for accommodation, enlisting the help of a person who lives in the region who can give you great tips on how to have fun in the region on your vacation.
Packing your bags
When packing your bags, roll your clothes when storing them in the suitcase without folding them, so as not to wrinkle them and take up less space. Also, have a complete kit of first necessities in a carry-on suitcase. She should have small snacks and water, ear protectors or headphones and, for long flights, underwear, medicine to use on the flight, toothbrush and toothpaste. And keep an extra change of clothes in case your luggage doesn't arrive.
Spend less on food
Don't spend all your saved money on food and drink. You should try the cuisine of the country you chose to visit, but it is not recommended to consume food and drinks from hotel minibars or other expensive places.
The ideal is to do some research to choose bars and restaurants that have a lower price. Prices vary and, therefore, you need to be careful and look for the cheapest places.
Foreign currency
The amount of tax on financial transactions is lower when exchanging currency. So that you can pay less with foreign currency, it is best to have cash.
The interesting thing is to find exchange options before closing a deal.
