How To Travel Frugally-For Backpackers

All the information available in Social Media makes it difficult for Backpackers to decide the nature of application for getting the Visa to enter a country.One gets confused and ends up paying more than what is required for his stay in the country.Else a traveller spends more time in a city just waiting for the visa papers to be processed.I have made a synopsis of the countries in which I have travelled or intend to travel in the days to come.
