When I plan my travel budget, I like to break my expenses into different sections. Here’s how I do it:

1. Essential Costs:

   • Transportation: This is usually my biggest cost. I look at plane tickets, rental cars, or buses and trains. I compare the prices to see what fits my budget best.
   • Accommodation: Next, I think about where I’m going to stay. Whether I’m booking a hotel, an Airbnb, or a hostel, I decide how much I can spend based on my total budget.

2. Food:

   • I try to set a daily budget for food. Eating out can get expensive quickly, so I look for local restaurants or plan to make some meals where I’m staying.

3. Activities and Entertainment:

   • I set aside a certain amount of money for fun things to do, like visiting attractions. I make a list of what I really want to do and check for any discounts or deals.

4. Miscellaneous:

   • I always keep a little extra money for surprise expenses, like souvenirs, tips, or fees I didn’t see coming.

By breaking it down this way, I can see where my money is going and change things if I need to. Keeping it organized helps me enjoy my trips without worrying about money!
