When you love to travel, spending money on things other than flights, accommodation, adventures and food can feel like a bummer. But the behind-the-scenes costs, specifically travel insurance, are just as important as the Instagrammable stuff when heading off on your trip.

Thankfully, travel insurance costs don't have to boot anything off your bucket list. With affordable insurance from soNomad, you can keep money in your fun fund while still being covered for the unexpected. So what can you do with the money you've saved by getting a good deal on insurance?

Upgrade your digs

When you have a little more money in your pocket, you can upgrade your hotel room, switch to a more luxurious AirBnB, or even — gasp — treat yourself to something from the mini-bar without sweating the cost.

Say 'yes' to the fun stuff

Is there an attraction or event you weren't sure you could afford? When you have affordable travel insurance, you can put the money you've saved toward that once-in-a-lifetime music festival, helicopter tour, or horseback riding experience you've been hoping for.

Take your taste buds on tour

Trying new and delicious foods is easily one of the best parts of exploring a new destination. Check out the famous and fabulous eateries on your trip without worrying about the bill, or sign up for an authentic cooking class and master the art of local cuisine.

Go to the extreme

Skydiving, ziplining, bungee jumping and other adrenaline-pumping activities are key to an unforgettable adventure, especially when you're surrounded by iconic landscapes. When you have the cash on hand, these invigorating experiences are totally worth it.

Get serious about your souvenirs

Whether they're for you, your parents, your besties or whoever, picking up a special memento from your trip will help you stay connected to your life-changing trip. When you find that special treasure, you can use the money saved on your insurance to bring that memory home.

Let the luxury in

Travel isn't travel if it doesn't give you a chance to reset, relax and reconnect with yourself. Spas can be a luxury expense that often gets ruled out, but when you have the money to spare, you won't regret treating yourself to a massage, thermal circuit or afternoon in a sauna.

Travel insurance is actually sooo affordable

If you've hesitated to buy travel insurance in the past, you can swiftly check it off the list. With soNomad, you can insure your trip for as little as $1.50 a day. That’s less than the price of your daily latte. Compared to the stress and expense of the unexpected, it's an unbeatable deal.
