I am the Poor Traveler, out here to prove that you don’t have to be filthy rich to go places.

Join me as I challenge myself to find clever ways to travel or to survive within a very limited budget. I will be sharing all my experiences and learnings here on this blog as I travel the world, starting with my own country — the Philippines.

I wouldn’t call myself a backpacker, a couch surfer or a tour rider. I may try them all. My methods of traveling does not matter. As long as it’s cheap, I will try it.

On this blog you will find tips on where to go, what to do, and just how much to spend when traveling to certain places in the country and even overseas. I will also be sharing the latest news and advisories that could help you strike an awesome travel deal.
