How I Decided to Travel for Free and Why I’ll Never Do It Again

8/31/2018, 9:37:36 PM
This summer, I dared to fulfill the most adventurous journey of my life — my friend and I decided to repeat the alpine trips of various travel bloggers from Instagram. We got a bunch of pieces of paper and markers for hitchhiking, got in touch with the residents of the nearby Alpine cities on the site CouchSurfing (this service helps to get free lodging when abroad and to provide free shelter for travelers in your hometown), packed our backpacks, and rushed to climb mountains. It was my first experience of traveling for free and I confess that it was the last one. Read on to find out why! ✔ An interesting note: it’s only Russians and Poles who stick to this philosophy, according to the stories of our hosts ✔ Don’t believe online travelers that keep motivating their readers to take free journeys ✔ We would be glad to read your stories in the comments!
