Budget-Friendly Solo Travel: How I Toured 3 Countries for Under $1,000

                                               

Solo travel doesn’t have to break the bank. With careful planning, I managed to explore Portugal, Spain, and Morocco for less than $1,000—all while eating well, staying safe, and seeing unforgettable sights.

Here’s how I did it:

Flights:
I used Skyscanner to find deals with flexible dates. My round-trip cost? Just $260.

Accommodation:
I stayed in female-only hostel dorms, averaging $15–20/night. Bonus: I met amazing people.

 Food:
Street food, local bakeries, and cooking at hostels kept costs under $15/day.

Transport:
Trains and buses between cities cost less than $100 total. In Morocco, I even took shared taxis.

Activities:
Free walking tours, beach days, and museum discounts helped keep experiences rich but cheap.

Daily Average:
About $35/day, including everything.

                                    

Pro Tip: Budget travel isn’t about missing out. It’s about choosing experiences that matter—and skipping the overpriced tourist traps.

If I can do it, so can you.
