On her @tutuokay account, she broke down the costs of her spa day abroad, which included return flights on the same day.

Tutu wrote in a video which has racked up over 35,000 likes: “When you escape the UK for £27 just to go to a spa.

“Catching flights and feelings this year.”

Tutu shared how she booked a round trip with RyanAir from London Stansted to Otopeni in Romania.

She landed at 11am and headed straight to Therme Bucharest, where she forked out £28 for a full day all access pass.

She stayed in the spa from 11.45am to 6.45pm and then caught a 9pm flight home.

In total she spent £111.03 on the pampering day out, with extras including food, attire, and her Uber and coach fees.

Tutu added: “POV you have free will so fly out to Bucharest for the day.”

Many people were inspired by her adventurous trip, with one saying: “I really wanna go here.”

Another added: “Tutu you use your passport like it's a free Oyster.”

My friends and I flew to Milan for a spa day and it cost less than one in the UK

Some viewers said they had done the same, with one writing: “Went here on a solo trip and it was best thing ever.”

It’s not the first time that travellers have enjoyed an incredible one-day trip abroad.
