17 Amazing Places to Travel If You’re Young, Broke, and Restless (and 116 more if you’re not)

If you’re following Code & Quill on Instagram (If not, follow us!), you’re aware the team has been on vacation for the last week.

We've shared photos sent to us by friends and colleagues, showing us their favorite spots from around the world. Not only were those spots easy on the eyes—if you haven’t drooled over the snapshot from the coast of Montenegro, you’re missing out—but they also gave us a bite from the wanderlust bug.

As we crawled the web, pondering destinations for our next vacation, we realized many of you are searching for your next place to explore, too. So today, we’re sharing six resources to inspire your next adventure.

Something we didn’t quite understand as we searched: why so many sites seem to restrict certain destinations to certain age groups. We read those parts with a grain of salt. Since when is adventure limited to age? It isn't to us—and never will be.

So whether you’re broke or prospering, whether you're in your twenties or your fifties, whether you have a short week or a long month to waste away, use these resources to start planning your next escape.

If You're Planning To Travel Solo This Year, Start With These 8 Destinations

Few things beat the experience of traveling with your partner or your friends. The memories you make, plus the stories of obstacles that inevitably popped up along the way—lost passport, language barriers, bungled accommodations, and so on—are guaranteed to stick with you for years to come.

But for some, traveling solo may be the way to go. Traveling alone builds character; it forces you to problem-solve quickly on your own, to decide how your time will best be spent to get the most out of your trip.

For those of you wanting a solo adventure, this is the post for you. HolidayIQ has rounded up these eight destinations that are budget-friendly and experience-rich. Check them out and start planning your next solo leisure.
