I'm curious, as lots of students say they've traveled to America, Asia (Especially China) and wondering where they get the money to do that? I'd love to go to China, mainly because I love the idea of the markets, haggling, so I would have to have money in reserve for shopping too, but as a student, with no job, I can't see it being that plausible. Even with a job, the tickets alone can cost you anything up to 2000 euro, depending on time of year and what not. So what's the deal?

Appreciate an insightful answer :)

Thanks

Some students have jobs and save up the money to go while others are financed by their parents. When my daughter was a student, she volunteered in the Monteverde Cloud Forest in Costa Rica one year and I gave her a trip to Europe another summer. She paid for another trip on her own from earnings from a job during the school year.

There are quite many volontary or no-cost projects.

In Europe there's European Voluntary Service. To USA there's Work & Travel. I do imagine that there are also some organizations that send people to Africa and Asia for some community work or to teach English for example.

Lastly, some universities have agreements with other universities and you can do an exchange semester. It is usually even required for linguistics studies.

They do things for people that they get paid for, and they save up. Many may have a Saturday or evening job. One student near me is away at university all week but comes home and teaches piano at the weekend. He is a good teacher and now has a waiting list. Other teenagers help elderly folk in their own homes - families looking after older relatives 24/7 appreciate some time off, and others may need a hand with personal care or doing tasks they are no longer able to do easily, like scrubbing floors, cleaning windows, even meal preparation and freezing, to microwave later. A secondary school student has a job in a local pub on a Saturday morning, helping to clean the place ready for the customers. I have also seen her at evening parties helping to serve food. Younger teenagers walk dogs, clean cars, offer to do gardening chores, babysit.

What I find implausible is that you are the age you are, with ambitions to do more, and are not looking out for the means to make it all possible. Open your eyes to the community around you and see what needs doing. Every need is an opportunity for you. Get up and get at it. The opportunities are out there. You just have to suss them out and find them.
