I read Matt Kepnes' book "How to Travel the World on $50 a Day" about 10 years ago. At that time I lived oversees and utilized a lot of the tips throughout the book but also was just inspired to be more adventurous. Plus, I have always been a budget-conscientious person, so I appreciate a travel guide that keeps that in mind. This updated version highlights new tips and information that again inspires the reader to go out and see the world. The tips include travel preparation like gear and money-saving tips. I gravitated especially to the credit card chapter. I am always trying to find the best credit cards to get travel points. Then the author highlights regions around the world, giving the readers information on accommodations, transit, food and activities with dollar amounts, so you can make sure you budget appropriately. Not all the information in the book will be useful to everyone. For example, I don't think I am interested in staying in hostels. When I was in my twenties I stayed in hostels, but I don't care to now. Comfort is important when I travel now that I am older. However, even if not everything in the book is for all readers, there is plenty of wonderful tips. I found myself highlighting many sections and taking lots of notes for my future travels. This is great for those readers who are planning their next adventure and don't want to break the bank. Enjoy!
