Cambodia

Though Cambodia is not as cheap as it was decades ago, it is still affordable by any standard. There has been a rise in the number of mid-range hotels in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap but a huge number of accommodation facilities are still affordable. The country is famous for its Angkor beer and beautiful sceneries such as Angkor Wat, Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum and Royal Palace Phnom Penh among others.

Spain

This country has become friendlier for tourists travelling on a budget because of the economic meltdown. It is now more affordable to explore the wonders of Spain, its northern coast and national parks. To live on a budget anywhere in Spain, spend less on wine (much as the wine may be tempting), avoid extra courses on meals and visit during low season. Some areas of interest in Spain include Gran Canaria, Alhambra, Museo Del Prado and Ibiza

Bolivia

This is one of the best pocket-friendly tourist destinations in South America. The country has affordable public transport and streets filled with food vending stores. Though items may be a bit more expensive in La Paz and Uyuni, meals would generally not top $10 in Bolivia. Visitors can visit the Valle de la Luna, Coca Museum, Tiwanaku and other locations while in Bolivia.
