5 things to do before backpacking across the world
November 11, 2022

Table of Content

 

According to a report, 93%* of Indians admitted that they are planning to spend the same or more on travel as compared to pre-pandemic times. Over the last few years, Indians have also warmed up to the idea of backpacking across the world. This is popular among those in their 20s who want to explore the world.

If you are one amongst them, here are five things to keep in mind

Fix a budget

Remember to allocate a budget for your backpacking trip. This will not only help you save up but also remain disciplined during your travel as you might be tempted to spend more. You may also have to account for the fact that currency fluctuations could impact your budget. You can consider saving up for the trip by investing in a savings plan such as HDFC Life Sanchay Plus.

Download travel apps

Travel apps are a boon as you can download different ones for booking tickets, planning your travel, finding unexpected destinations, locating the nearest restrooms, discovering local events, last minute deals and even translating languages.

Learn about local customs and values

Once you shortlist the places you wish to visit, it would be a good idea to learn about the local customs and values. This will help you to make friends, avoid offending sentiments and also appreciate local cultures. You may also wish to pick up some commonly used words in the local languages of the countries that you are planning to visit.

Get your vaccinations

If you are traveling to certain countries, it would be advisable to get vaccinated. However, you could take a call by updating yourself about guidelines issued by the government.

Get a universal plug adaptor

Although this may sound like a minor issue, a universal plug adaptor would be a blessing in disguise, especially if you are traveling to multiple countries. Thus, you won’t have to worry about charging your devices in any region.

Backpacking across the world is likely to be a transformational experience as it would open up your mind to different perspectives.
