Budget Tips from the Frugal Traveler

by Melissa Atienza-Petri on July 20th, 2006

As I mentioned on Flyaway, I have been following the adventures of the Frugal Traveler on New York Times.  For those who do not know, Matt Gross (aka the Frugal Traveler) is currently on his “Around the World in 90 Days on the Cheap” trip. 

IMHO, his idea of travelling on a shoestring with a budget of US$140 per day would not really qualify as “traveling on the cheap”.  But, then again, the term may be relative.

In any case, it’s a very interesting read.  However, if you need budget tips (in Europe, he’s been to Galicia, Bologna, Venice, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Greece, Turkey and Georgia), you might want to check out the comments section. You’ll find more budget travel ideas from the readers than from the article itself.
