Spam Challenge

Fancy an adventure but a bit low on pennies? The Spam Challenge is a feature in Adventure Travel magazine which sets your resources for a weekend of fun at £70 and a tin of pork.

I’ve just finished a return cycle trip to Amsterdam with just such a tinned product.

We went a little over budget on the ferry but avoided spending anything on accommodation by staying with a friend and carrying a tent. As it happened, the tent never actually left it’s bag because our free apartment was so great but still, a free night’s sleep was available! Then, by living on a diet of biscuits and cheap fried food, we were pretty pleased with our thriftiness over a six day journey.

So let not money be an excuse for sitting at home in front of the TV this weekend. Try taking on a low budget adventure and you might even get published in a really cool magazine!

Drop me a line if you want any help or ideas.
