Read MoreIt’s no secret that staying in Singapore can be expensive, but it’s also no secret to Singaporeans that everything is cheaper in Malaysia. To save on expenses during our travels, we decided to stay at a resort hotel in Malaysia that is just around the corner from Legoland in Nusajaya, Johor Bahru. Our cost at this Bed and Breakfast was just under $630 USD per month and we stayed for 2 months. We’ve learned that crossing the border takes time, so if you are limited on time, we certainly wouldn’t recommend it.

Read MoreOne of the main reasons that people don’t travel is because they simply don’t have the money to do it. So, it’s no wonder that people ask us how to save money to travel. Our #1 biggest piece of advice is to increase your income by earning side money in some way – and the EASIEST ways to do that are by using the newest social sharing apps out on the market today. But, this advice applies to ANYONE that needs extra side money – even if it’s not for travel. So, why not add some extra income to your pockets every single month? Our favorite way - that earns the most and takes the least amount of time to set up - is by…
Read MoreWhen people say that they are going to travel the world for an entire year, the perception is that they’ve saved up a LOT of money to be able to afford it. That makes sense considering that The Motley Fool states that the average American is spending $1,928 for a week-long trip (per person).

Well, the truth is, we have been spending no more than…

Thus, we did this trip the CORRECT way - whereas the people who wrote the other posts did it backwards and didn’t pay attention to the weather. That being said, when we went it was UNBEARABLY HOT!!! Our favorite locations were…
