Do you often find yourself scrolling through your Instagram feed daydreaming about vacations, inspiring photography and life-changing adventures only to wake up and check your bank balance and it feel like you'll be forever dreaming?Vacations are often a costly endeavor for one person.From using travel agencies, buying meals, renting tiny hotel rooms, fueling your car or paying for transportation services.  It can be financially draining.Travelling in a group can be a great way to not only save on them coins, but it also offers several opportunities to socialise.Friends Chintan Gohel and Zainab Adam know all about travelling on a budget. They've been doing it for close to two years now. And they haven't been using any travel agency either. ''Zainab and I recognized how expensive it can be to travel when you have limited funds so we explored the option of group travel.'' Chintan tells us.Together, they started a travelers club dubbed Matembezi Travelers Club .

They also provide water and light snacks.Since they started the travelling club, they've had 400 people join them. Their biggest trip had 72 people.
