Who it's for
Adults with a passport, basic English or the local language of the first hub, and willingness to sleep in shared rooms, cook simple meals, and trade 15–25 hours of work a week for board. Competence floor: you can book transport online, carry a 7–10 kg bag, and stick to a written daily spending limit.
About this playbook
For adults who want weeks on the road with very little cash — not city-break shoppers hunting flight deals. Most people overspend by booking hotels first, flying between hubs, and eating out every meal until the trip collapses after ten days. This guide walks you through a cash-runway test, a cheap-to-live route, work-exchange lodging, overnight ground moves, a self-catering food cap, and red-line safety rules. It prevents the expensive habits of prepaid tourist stays, impulse flights, and open restaurant tabs. It does not cover luxury travel hacking, points strategies, or long-term digital-nomad visas.
