There are some people who spend their life travelling around the world and do study a lot about people around the world living in different circumstances as also they get to see mother nature in different parts of the world.I was always wondering on how they manage financial matters which does come along with travel? who will bare their expense as some of them are traveling just for fun and experience.If you are also given a chance,would you also be interested in traveling around the world?

Hi alienstar!
It is true that as you travel you meet lots of people with different cultures than yours, their lifestyles as well as mother nature and a different set of environment than the one you are accustomed to. Traveling around the world is a luxury to most. It is little wonder why some people have not ventured beyond their own shores. But, if given the chance to, I'm sure they would love to as much I would. why not?

Yes! It's a wonderful dream to hang on to. I would say that as long as you are focused and work hard for your dream, you should realize it. Things normally start from a dream. A dream makes a dream comes true. Keep dreaming my friend. And good luck!

I would love to do it, and I've been wondering quite seriously about renting my flat out and then travel for some time. Half a year, one year, two years. Not quite sure how I'd find money for it though, there's no point in selling my car because it's not really worth anything so that might get me a ticket to London but not much further :-)

Renting your flat and going on world tour? i don't think finance is enough for this as traveling around the world will take years and you will need a big budget and over that if you are traveling with your family, then it will be too much for sure unless you are a born rich person who can afford anything in life

When I was a teenager I had experienced some traveling and the more places I went to the keener I was to travel to even more different places. I had been to destinations in Europe between the ages 14 to 18. I paid for that traveling with money earned doing a paper round and a Saturday job. I worked as a children's nanny in Finland to finance my trip around Europe when I was 18 years old. Then at age 18 I got a job in a shipping company. I was able to afford trips to Tunisia in North Africa and St Lucia in the Caribbean. At age 19 years old I was given some money in my Great Aunts will. It was enough to buy a little cottage. Sadly at age 20 I was made redundant and it was in the recession. I tried hard to get another job but it wasn't possible. I let out my cottage, got a working holiday visa for Australia and bought an airline ticket to go around the world. I spent just over one year away on my trip around the world. Since then my teaching has provided me with money for traveling. Between one contract and the next I traveled to New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands. Now I have my children I travel less than I used to. However I am still keen on traveling. We went to South Africa last year and to Canada this year.

Maybe even doing such small jobs also you get paid well as i we do such jobs here in my country i don' think i will be aid that high which satisfies my traveling of such places.Maybe you are lucky that you have traveled to some places around the world.I think, among these places you have visited Austarlia and Canada might be the most beautiful places isn't it?

There are lots of people who dreamed to travel around the world,of course who else don't want to explore the beauty that the nature offers. Me, even when I am still young I really wanted to see the world. But the problem of course is the money, how can you enjoy roaming around a place if you don't have any cash. Lucky to those who are wealthy enough to enjoy this kind of leisure. So if given a chance I would certainly do anything just to visit another country.

You are right and there are indeed a lot of people interested in going on world tour and i am also one among those people who like to travel around the world for sure.We are of the same kind and both are struggling with money and if any organization pays to us, we can happily roam around the world and come back isn't it? but strange that there are many people travel around the world and all are not rich for sure !!

People who have the means are able to travel. For others, if they have the extra money, they travel while some really set aside a budget for travel. They work hard to be able to travel and afford the luxuries in life. I would be interested to travel, but I don't have the financial capacity to do it.

It is not only rich people who travel as i have seen poor people also going for world tour ! i was just thinking on their financial demands as who will fulfill their financial needs as they themselves cannot afford for sure.Is there any organization which has paid for people traveling around the world for some purpose or the other?

Once you tried to traveled, you would wanting for more. You will see how beautiful the world is and it will open opportunities for you as well. People who are able to travel have the means in terms of money. They got extra. Others even put aside a certain amount for travel expenses.

Traveling around the world might take years and thinking on finance required for that long tour, it is too big and i just cannot imagine going into such a tour sacrificing my job for such a long time.But, given an opportunity, i would love to travel and maybe even write a book of my world tour experience as there are some people who have written their experience isn't it?

Oh yes, that would be wonderful! If I just had the opportunity to travel without any worries about cash, I would do it in a heartbeat. I love travelling and think it teaches you so much, so I would not hesitate for one moment.

Actually i had strong desire to travel last year itself and was preparing to arrange cash by working very hard for 2 years, but surprisingly i couldn't still manage anything substantial and the money earned was not even enough to travel around my own country.Now that each and everything has become very expensive and this dream of mine will be very very tough to achieve

If I have the financial capacity to do so, I would love to travel the world. It will be very exciting and enlightening to learn different cultures and see how they differ from mine. It will be an extra bonus if I happen to find a friend there.

Traveling around the world, you will tend to make a friend in some place for sure and it is just exciting isn't it? even without traveling i like to meet foreigners here in my place also and talk a lot about their culture and their living standards and all.It's all pretty interesting as i have also made one good foreign friend for some time before he lost touch with me

Ya of course,once we are born in this world and if I get this kind of opportunity,I will definitely go...........because travel quickens our mind and I do read it before I reached there and become much familiar with geographical and climate condition .....we come to know new language,currency,foods,customs,new people and cultures of there countries ........and also we will gain our self confidence ,memories would be there .
