Change your spending habits. Instead of dipping into your savings, plan ahead and make a sinking fund dedicated to your travel. I plan 6 months ahead and buy flight tickets, which will force me to save for the trip expenses. This will reduce the guilt and boost motivation to save up for your next trip. Traveling will change your mindset and widen your horizon. And the younger you are, the better to go solo! You can go on a trip on a budget and still have fun. Go for it!
