Adventuring on a Budget

Everyone wants to travel. Everyone wants to venture out to different cultures. Everyone wants to see the world and experience new things far from home. But not everyone has the funds to do so. Adventuring on a budget is not only for college students— like myself— but for individuals of all ages.

Adventuring on a Budget has got you covered on what you need to know. Whether it is quick tips from a cheapskate or not so popular destinations around the United States— this blog will ensure you that the funds needed to see the world is not so pricy after all.

There is a great big world out there waiting for you to explore.

The Voice Behind the Post

My name is Dana Hockbein and I am a broke college student. Like most of my peers around me, I want to travel around the world (or at least around the United States of America). My wild dream seems to be impossible— but when you mix stingy with a little motivation you get Adventuring on a Budget.

Here is a little bit about myself: My major is Journalism with an emphasis on Broadcast/Print/Web and I have a double minor in Philosophy and Corporate Communication. I predominantly go to work and school full-time. When I am not doing either of those two things, I am usually petting my cat at home, reading or writing poetry and starting art pieces that I most likely will never finish. Of course I travel as much as I can! I’ve traveled to several of our States, my favorite being New York and Nevada. I have even traveled across the pond to England and France.

I still have many more places to see, people to meet and food to eat.
