I also forgot to mention the option of not going as a tourist, but as someone staying for an extended time and working. I know people who go teach English abroad for up to 1-2 years (e.g. in Japan, China), and everything gets paid for. It's a fantastic opportunity.

A friend of mine plans to go to France for a couple of months next year to work on an organic farm--she will actually get PAID to travel there, it's a pretty sweet deal. There are tons of similar opportunities for people who are in the right stage of life to take advantage of them.
