In this episode, we discuss how we’ve been back for about a week since our European summer adventures ended.  We then dig into:

  • What worked well and what could have been even better (WWW and EBI)
  • Listener questions on how much we budgeted, how much we spent on ice cream, hotels vs. aribnbs, if we experienced anxiety while spending, minimalist packing tips and how it worked out, things we’re most grateful to return home to, drones, eating vegan while traveling, food quality in Europe, prices in Europe, drones, and more.
  • The exact amounts we each spent during our family's 32 and 39-day European summer vacations.  We each play “price is right” first to guess each other’s total spending.  

Top 3 takeaways:

  1. We spent a lot of money traveling this summer.  This is a money category that is a priority for both of us.    
  2. Tradeoffs and intentional spending are real, even while you’re on vacation.  
  3. Tracking your expenses on vacation can help you budget and plan for future vacations.
