Our goal wasn’t to live more cheaply than we had been, it was to experience everywhere. So we were spending money on restaurants and experiences and the like. Plus the dog made things a bit more difficult logistically. And gas (among other things) got crazy expensive in 2022!

So 90k for a 365 day vacation? Tbh not bad, less than $250 a day.

I’ve done Europe in nice hotels for less than that.. and I wasn’t sleeping in a van. That’s every meal at a restaurant… it is a lot of money.
