People love to travel, and they love to travel to places where they can stretch their budget as much as possible. This leads to an interesting phase during the international travel planning phase, the ‘bargain hunting phase’. This is approximately 25-30% of the total time spent preparing for travel. Whatever your budget unless you’re a trillionaire, you’ll be on the lookout for bargains. In different strata of society the spending limit is as high as it is affordable for all; The billionaire tends to choose Hilton hotels rather than the shared hostels available on the dirty streets that cost only a fraction. But did you know that you are visiting places where the English language is not widespread. You’ll either find bargains here checking out multiple credentials or get ripped trying to bargain out there in the wild. International sites offer many deals not found in typical English sites. You have to go through reviews and hidden places which are not crowded but serve your travel purpose.
The main reason people don’t use international websites is the lack of knowledge on how to translate those websites. Note here that I mention knowledge of finding a translation tool rather than knowledge of the language itself. The simplest and most affordable tool is Google Translator, you just need to go to a Dutch website, you can find one in the resource box, and press the Translate button in the Google toolbar. there he is! You can see the countless deals that are there. Did you know that many people make a great living from their ability to translate? They just find a german site get a deal. Put the same in English and mint money as brokers without doing any legal business in the travel industry. While this is a legitimate, valid and good business model, it is not traveler friendly in terms of budget. You pay for a translator when it’s freely available.
