Have you caught yourself wondering when you will be rich enough to travel all around the world? When will you live that Indian dream of ‘ghar, gaadi, and an international trip at least once a year’? I mean you know you spend most of your salary on rent, and conveyance, and booze, and rent. Your salary might not be that great to begin with because all of us didn’t pursue an MBA in finance or become investment bankers.

So millennials, what if we tell you that there are a few locations in the world where you can go chill at with just a little bit of saving (seriously, try)? Don’t believe us? 

Here are 15 places you can plan a vacay to with a budget of Rs 50,000.

Do remember though, you will have to book the tickets at least 2 months in advance, and that your accommodation will not be 5-star resorts but cosy old home stays, hostels, and couch surfers’ havens.
