Product Description

Shelley Seale and Keith Hajovsky are self-professed world nomads, who travel just about any time and place they have the opportunity - and usually for free, or very close to it. Between the two of them, they have visited more than 50 countries and logged millions of miles. Are you tired of the conventional wisdom which says that you have to spend a lot of money to travel the world? Do you want to learn how two well-traveled vagabonds have managed to do it for decades, as well as the travel-cheap insights they have accumulated over many years of gallivanting around the globe? There are many travel resources and guidebooks out there that tell you how to travel on the cheap, how to save money, how to get the best airfares. The authors have read and used many of them, and there are lots of good ones around. How To Travel For Free (or pretty damn near it!) is different in that in these pages, Seale and Hajovsky share their own personal resources and experiences to show ways in which you can travel not just cheaply, but for free - or damn close to it! If you or someone you know wants to learn how to see and experience the world without the need to have or to spend large amounts of money like so many in the travel industry will have you believe, then buy this book now and start your own personal journey toward your dreams of independent travel freedom!

5Great Resource and some Inspiration!
By ArcticDi
I read Shelley's book "The Weight of Silence" so I knew I would like her writing style and approach to the world in this book. And this book is a gold mine of ideas and resources for those individuals new to travel and even for the veterans of world wide travel.

I like the way this book is organized. It's going to be a great resource for us and I only wish we had it 15 years ago when we first started traveling because it would have given us ideas for traveling longer and less expensively.

After reading this book there is no reason to NOT travel. If you have ever dreamed of traveling the world but couldn't see how you could afford it this book is for YOU. Shelley makes it possible with a little research and planning for any budget range. Not to mention great ideas to travel in unconventional ways which provide the best experiences!

5Road Warrior's Guide to Saving Money
By Melissa Cook
I'm the original road warrior--and I thought I would never find a travel book that could tell me something I didn't know. This one did the trick! Shelley Seale and Keith Hajovsky achieved something great here: they have produced a highly readable book which is also jam-packed with information, links and tips. The book is useful for business people and families looking to stretch their vacation dollars, for college students looking to maximize the time they can stay away on their savings, and for recent graduates just starting out in low-paying jobs, who want to see the world without breaking the bank.

One thing that really resonated with me was the description of how much more you can experience if you stay away from tourist traps. Just being in the midst of locals-- shopping, eating, traveling and doing things at local prices-- can expose you to sights, sounds and tastes that you would completely miss if you went on a guided tour. This is a useful reminder that even if you can afford to spend more, maybe it's not the wisest thing to do.

As a lifelong travel junkie, I'm totally sold on the idea that the world would be a better place if only people could go out and see how others live, how other cultures and value systems are constructed-- and really understand each other beter. Kudos to Shelley and Keith for opening the door to many more people to find a way to do this.

5Excellent book filled with creative ideas for travel on the cheap/free!
By SHBueche
Shelley Seale and Keith Hajovsky are both global nomads as well as experts in the travel industry, they know their stuff! Time and time again, they are asked to share their advice on traveling with a limited budget and traveling with a purpose! This downloadable e-book is worth its weight in gold, with every word packing a punch! They share tips on securing transportation and accommodations with your wallet in mind! The authors also suggest creative ideas to see new destinations with the eye of a local and planning accordingly.

Do yourself a favor, buy this book and start planning your next excursion.
