Traveling abroad is a dream that many of us have had since childhood. Meeting new people, getting to know a different culture, and try exotic cuisines from around the world. But when we actually plan a trip abroad from Nepal, we face a harsh reality. The travel expenses go beyond our affordable budget.
To start off, the Nepalese passport which ranks lowly against other countries has many travel restrictions. There are only 41 countries that Nepalese can travel without a pre-approved visa. Nepalese tourists have to face outlandish exchange rates against rupees when they travel abroad.
But international travel doesn’t necessarily have to be an expensive affair. There are countries whose currency fare weaker than that of Nepalese rupee. Our planet is big, and there are wonderful places you can travel to at prices you never thought exists. Here are 30 countries you can go to where having Nepalese rupee is going to make you feel super-rich, in its most literal sense:
Pakistani Rupee (PKR)
Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR)
Guyanese Dollar (GYD)
Yemeni Rial (YER)
Hungarian Forint (HUF)
Nigerian Naira (NGN)
Comorian Franc (KMF)
Kazakhstani Tenge (KZT)
Somali Shilling (SOS)
Angolan Kwanza (AOA)

Higher exchange rates may not necessarily give you higher purchasing power on commodities, therefore, despite having a higher currency exchange rate, the cost of living may be high in the above-mentioned countries. You can check the average cost of living at Numbeo.
