TRAVEL PASSIONS ASK NEARLY ANY PERSON ABOUT HIS OR HER DREAM TRIP AND WATCH A SMILE APPEAR AS THE PERFECT PERSONAL EXCURSION IS DESCRIBED. NOW, ASK WHY THE TRIP HAS YET TO HAPPEN, AND TIME AND MONEY WILL BE THE LIKELY CULPRITS.

Book Based on Your Interests One of the easiest ways to make time for travel is to book based on your likes and hobbies. When you plan a trip around your passions, it helps you prioritize the experience over the cost.

Carving out time and saving funds to make travel possible, even during the busiest travel seasons, can be a challenge. Lee Abbamonte, the youngest person to travel to every country in the world plus the North and South Poles, and Bank of America recommend these tips to travel the world in style.

“When I worked in finance, I noticed a lot of my colleagues made excuses about why they couldn’t travel,” Abbamonte said. “I’ve found that booking travel based on your personal interests can help you stay motivated to follow through actually taking the trip. For example, I love watching and playing sports, so I often use that as a reason to travel to various countries.”

he misconceived notions that may be holding you back from traveling can feel especially exacerbated during busy seasons when travel costs rise and coordinating vacation schedules with coworkers becomes a challenge.
