This was such an interesting break down! We’re currently working on a breakdown of our 15 months of travel, so it’s fascinating to see the differences in short-term and long-term travel.
Hey girl, I have a question! How did you input your total expense of travel into your Coplenty 2024 budget tracker to show that it had deducted from your Travel savings account? Have been trying to figure out a way to make this work cohesively in the budget tracker! I hope this makes sense, and thanks in advance!
Love this…. So helpful for my trip in September. Thank you ❤ I scored Fiji Airways flights for $1198 and I was stoked but man everything else is expensive 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks so much for sharing the financial breakdown! Sounds like you had an amazing trip. 💕 Off topic, but I was wondering how you view or think about the environmental impacts of travelling? It's something that prevents me from travelling more, so I'm always curious to hear other people's thoughts. 😊 Thanks!
we had the best time, thank you 🥰 unfortunately there's very few ways to offset the environmental impact of travel but we try and opt for trains when we can, bring our own water bottles, reusable bags etc. and opt for eco friendly tours/operators where possible! I would love to do a tour with Intrepid one day- they're B corp certified 😍🍃
I am nosy and love travel!! I did contact co plenty a year or so ago and asked about a travel planner, I will have to grab one for sure. I am planning a trip to Scotland and hopefully a 4-5 days in London, likely be a couple of years away but I'll keep in mind to book flights in advance. So lucky you was able to check in to your hotel early!! I considered paying for the night before just in case I was wrecked and wanted some down time.
This was so helpful Ella thank you! 🙏🏼 The tipping system is so interesting as an Australian! Do you know if it is a legal requirement to tip in the USA?
you're so welcome! not tipping isn't illegal but frowned upon. In saying that, they ask for tips EVERYWHERE. I saw heaps of people decline to tip at cafes, fast food places etc.
I will say for accommodation you guys were visiting some of the most expensive cities for hotels. I went to Boston last year and it was almost shocking but most nice hotels were $300-500 USD a night. I think when researching it said Boston is one of the most expensive for hotels.
With your Amtrak experience, did you have to pay extra for your luggage? Or catch a specific train? Or was it okay just to bring your luggage onto the main carriage? The information online is so confusing 😂
Good to know about viator ! They came up for offers for tours in London and Edinburgh and Because I didn’t know them I didn’t book them ! Now I know ! Glenda. I have booked for 7 people two cities for 9 days … all flights Airbnb vrbo and tours / activities ( tattoo) and yeah $ money cash is flowing !!! BUT almost all will be paid for ahead of time ! Budgeting 30 k .., 😂food is a concern for 7 but we are trying to utilize the homes kitchens !
Great video🙌 pls don't ever take your dog with you on vacation. I work at the airport and every day I see completely distressed animals that have trouble breathing or a literal anxiety attack because they were taken on vacation with the family and needed to be in the belly of the plane. It just hurts the soul to see. Also so many animals die in the belly of planes
I love Wanderlog! But I've never used it to it's full extent like it looks like you have, you have me motivated 🫡 did you use the itinerary list/function or just created your own "list" for each day?
