How to Travel Europe CHEAP in 2020! (finding flights, accommodations, picking a country)

Hey guys! I hope y’all found this video really helpful. I know traveling to a budget can be VERY overwhelming. But I assure you that with strategic planning in advance, you can have the Eurotrip of your dreams on A BUDGET! Since I travel full time, it is my lifestyle so it costs just as much (or even less than) what a ‘normal’ lifestyle would cost. IT IS TOTALLY DOABLE! Believe in it, write it on a notecard next to your bed, and dream about it! You can make this happen! If you have any questions, or have any additional tips to share, please do not keep them to yourself and post them below. :)
