How overnight buses became my go-to budget travel hack

I used to think they were too rough for a good night's sleep. After a smooth ride, I saved on a hotel and had more time to explore. What budget travel method did you once avoid but now use often?

Tbh, overnight buses ruin your next day. You save money but lose energy to actually enjoy the place.

My last overnight bus in Vietnam cost me a whole day in Hanoi. You're just too wrecked to function properly. The savings aren't worth being a zombie.

Avoided hostels for years but now I totally get the appeal.
