    I doubt it but you should check out http://www.couchsurfing.org/. You have probably heard of it, you can find an accomodation in a country of your choice for free.

      I met a guy in San Francisco that was doing that. He highly recommended it. It probably works better for someone traveling alone.

      Great idea. So seems the accommodation problem is solved, even though don't know how safe big_smile now need to find a way about air tickets, that's the biggest problem that I can't afford, accommodation is still affordable in small hotels and hostels. Thx!

    Become an air courier.  Harder to find jobs doing this but they are out there.  Free flights or greatly discounted.  Also you go where you are told and not much notice.

    Get a job on a cruise ship. I know people who have traveled all the oceans and visited most major cities in the world just by working on a cruise ship. There are numerous jobs available on a cruise ship.

    There are still some people who use a Bicycle, a Backpack, and a sleeping bag to see the country. If you try this, though, in this world of ours today, you really need to do some intense planning and tracking to plot hops between YMCA's, youth Hostels (yes some do still exist in the US) and friendly property owners who allow people to camp. The places are out theer, you just need to get connected on the web and work it.

    Walking or biking is about it. Or you could hitchhike.
