You are Always on the Lookout for Free Things to Do
Signs You Might Be a Budget Traveler Mark Kahler, licensed to About.com
It has been said that the best things in life are free. Trite though it may sound, this bit of wisdom is true when you consider free travel opportunities. Take Europe as an example. There are plenty of memorable and free things to do in Europe. The traveler who spends hours in line for a view of Paris from atop the Eiffel Tower sees a view comparable to those who visit Sacre Coeur for free and admire the overlook near the entrance. How about finding world-class museums that don't charge admission? There are plenty of free attractions that will give you lasting memories, and others for which you'll pay that are less memorable.
