Like you I dreamed about one day traveling the world. I live in Europe so I began there to do some exploring when I was a teenager. I managed to go the Greece when I was 14 years old with my mom. At age 17 I visited the Netherlands with a friend. I really wanted to go around Europe by train so I worked as a children's nanny in Finland. I did that trip and made friends with other travelers. I worked in an office for a couple of years but but then lost my job. So I let out my home and got a working holiday visa for Australia. Off I went around the world for just over one year. Good luck for your travel plans for the future. I suggest saving money, getting a cheap flight and couch surfing.

Yes, Tina..everyone has his/her own dream , to realize your dream, first it has to be realistic, by that i mean it has to within your ability to reach; then only you can realize it. In the case of your love of traveling outside China, since your parent is worry your safety, then you must show to them you are capable of protecting yourself and cast any doubt from your parent mind through your action. Second; with limited money and time, chances is you need to choose your destination carefully where it will cost within your budget and time frame, like choosing country close to you or places that have lower cost of expenses for tourist. With so much information on internet, and travel itinerary, it is not hard to get information you need to plan for your travel if you are ready to put small efforts into your planning. Hope you enjoy your travel in the future and realize your dream soon.
