5 travel apps for travelers on a budget

    If you ever get the chance, explore the world without plans. When you return, you will no longer be the same. Jack Kerouac's book On the Road captures the spirit of spontaneous travel—going where you like, when you like, and experiencing the world first hand. Exploring the globe can be liberating, character-building, and a fascinating world. Even more surprising: Today's traveler doesn't need to be incredibly wealthy to explore just about any country on Earth.However, traveling the world isn't free, so unless you're rich regardless, you'll need to shell out a penny or two on those trips abroad. But you have a tool that Kerouac never dreamed of: your mobile device. Whether it's a smartphone or tablet, connecting with friends, family, and apps can save you a lot of money. Let's take a look at five budget-stretching apps you should always take with you when you travel.

Few things can make you feel more helpless in a foreign country than the inability to communicate. Improvised sign language only for you. Most language translation apps are much cheaper than printed phrasebooks and usually contain much more information. Each Lonely Planet phrasebook app is for one language and only costs $6. These handy tools draw on Lonely Planet's rich experience in the global travel market. Taking the time to memorize a few phrases will likely earn you points among the locals.For a cheaper app that translates voice to voice (you speak one language and it repeats itself in another), iTranslate is your best bet. If you don't mind seeing ads, iTranslate language titles are free, or you can upgrade to an ad-free version for $1-$2. Jibbigo is another very highly rated translator, but it will cost you around $30 per language - not exactly budget-friendly, especially if you need multiple languages.Even if you use translators on the fly, you will still be good at remembering some important phrases. Considering how unstable some of the translation apps are, we know how to say "Sorry, I didn't mean to say that!" It can be useful.
