Call your bank to let them know that you\u2019re heading abroad and when. While you\u2019re on the phone, check to make sure your credit card won\u2019t charge you international fees. If they do, consider a card with no fees for your time overseas. Also, think about limiting the amount of cash you plan to bring with you. This will help to curb spending and force you to budget for the activities you really want to do.<\/p>\n

Also,\u00a0pack smart;\u00a0be mindful about what you bring so you don\u2019t have to buy any clothes while abroad. Layers are always a great bet and are extremely versatile for travel<\/a>ing across a few different climates.<\/p>\n

As a study abroad student, don\u2019t spend money like a tourist dining out on the town each night. Shop at a local market and cook cuisine at home, or ask a local student where to dine out for cheap. This can help you meet people, learn new recipes, and explore areas of town you might not venture to otherwise.<\/p>\n

For the most part, public transportation is the cheapest way to travel while studying abroad. Learn the local system and you\u2019ll usually save money. This varies in some countries, but walking is always free! In general, use your best judgment, and go with a safe transportation option.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Use Your Student Discount.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

Most study abroad students are required to purchase an\u00a0International Student Identity Card (ISIC), or it may be included in program fees. These ISIC cards provide student discounts on transportation, museums, hostels, books, etc. Also, don\u2019t be afraid to ask local students where they hang out or what kind of deals do they take advantage of as students.\u00a0The obstacles are less than the solutions all the time, so just follow your heart to explore your future.<\/p>\n
