Resolve to make travel plans this year, no matter how small the trip may seem. Any student travel changes your life.
- Read a travel book or guidebook. Reading is planning -- your appetite for travel will grow with every sentence; your confidence will increase as you read about other student travelers who've gone there and done that.
- Budget Travel Guidebooks -- guidebooks for students on a hiking boot string
- Best student travel books of 2008
- Budget Travel Guidebooks -- guidebooks for students on a hiking boot string
- Grab a pal and take the bus to the next town or the nearest big city for just one day.
- Read about Greyhound bus student discounts
- Learn about all the cheap buses in the US
- Hop an Amtrak train to another state just to watch the country roll by.
- Spend one night in a youth hostel. You'll meet travelers your age with similar interests and hear talk about student travel spots near and far. Your own town probably has a youth hostel -- take a friend and stay overnight in the hostel dorm.
Make bigger student travel plans if you're ready: decide to volunteer, work, study or just travel abroad and find itineraries, student travel guides, discount student tickets, and student lodging info.
