Where can I travel to for free
[edit]list of places I could travel to without money? Marlikizzy (talk) 10:53, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
- Pretty much nowhere if your question is to be taken literally – you're going to have to spend some money somewhere along the lines (directly, such as the cost of a tram fare, or indirectly, such as fuel). However, it is possible to travel for an extremely low-cost: many cities do have free attractions (such as museums and art galleries) and hikes are often free depending on where you are. Campgrounds can be free or incredibly low-cost (where I live there's only a one-off booking fee), though once again, that doesn't account for the cost of travelling there. //shb (t | c | m) 11:16, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
- Okay I get, thank you for the information Marlikizzy (talk) 11:23, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
- Places you can walk or cycle to. Possibly also places served by local public transport if you already have a season ticket or pass (maybe bought for regular commuting). AlasdairW (talk) 11:24, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

- Get a job that involves much travel? Cabin staff for an airline? Roadie for a band? Digital nomad? Sailor? Trucker?
- Hitchhiking? Temporary work as crew on a yacht or freighter to get across an ocean? A Working holiday visa at a destination?
- The classic free transportation, "Third boxcar, midnight train"? Not recommended since it is illegal anywhere & penalties are severe in some places. Also uncomfortable & rather dangerous. Next line of that song "Destination Bangor, Maine"? I do not know if they still do it, but at one point the Bangor government would give an indigent person a free bus ticket anywhere in the contiguous US provided they agreed never to ask for welfare in Bangor again.

- Budget travel and Minimum budget travel have some of these and other ideas too. —Granger (talk · contribs) 13:23, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
tourism
[edit]Is this about tourism and what you can be in the tourism industry? 41.116.245.65 19:26, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, to some extent, but we cover travel in general not just tourism; for example there are articles on working abroad, retiring abroad and others. Also, we write from the traveller's viewpoint, so 'what you can be in the tourism industry" is not part of our focus,
