ROUND-THE-WORLD TRAVEL

If you only do it once, make sure you see everything, taste everything and forget nothing.

Sip caipiriniha on Copacabana, pose with Pastis in Paris, get to grips with a chilli dog on Sunset Boulevard, swallow oodles of noodles in Bangkok and quaff a glass or two in Capetown - all on the same trip!

You might only do it once…so do it right. It's a good idea to plan ahead.

Useful travel tips from Youthtravel.com

Work out a basic route, keep travelling in the same direction and see if you can travel outside the peak periods (tickets where travel starts in May and June are cheaper than those leaving in July and August and around Christmas time)
